Show HN: SDDL - Alternative to Branch.io for Deferred Deep Links
Hey HN!
We just launched SDDL – a simple solution for creating deferred deep links for mobile apps. Think of it as a lightweight, Firebase-free alternative to Branch.io or AppsFlyer.
What it does: • Generates short links like https://myapp.sddl.me/abc123 • Redirects users based on platform and install status • Passes data to the app after installation via Universal/App Links
Why we built it:
Branch.io and similar tools are powerful but often too heavy or expensive for small teams and indie devs. We wanted something simpler and transparent.
Would love your feedback! We’re live and shipping fast – let us know what you’d want to see next.

Show HN: Interactive Change Data Capture (CDC) Playground
I've built an interactive demo for CDC to help explain how it works.
The app currently shows the transaction log-based and query-based CDC approaches.
Change Data Capture (CDC) is a design pattern that tracks changes (inserts, updates, deletes) in a database and makes those changes available to downstream systems in real-time or near real-time.
CDC is super useful for a variety of use cases:
- Real-time data replication between operational databases and data warehouses or lakehouses - Keeping analytics systems up to date without full batch reloads - Synchronizing data across microservices or distributed systems - Feeding event-driven architectures by turning database changes into event streams - Maintaining materialized views or derived tables with fresh data - Simplifying ETL/ELT pipelines by processing only changed records
And many more!
