How do you guys debug serverless functions?
Having a hard time trying to debug my serverless functions, other than just deploying them on Vercel and waiting to test on the client. Especially challenging because they run on DB triggers... not sure if there is a better way? Anyone knows?

Ask HN: Any good tools for viewing congressional bills?
I was interested in skimming through the "Big Beautiful Bill" and I found the contents of it on congress.gov[1].
It comes in two formats: One is a text document with with column size restrictions that makes it very hard to read, worse than the text version of an IETF RFC. The second is a machine readable XML document which itself isn't easily read.
Are there any good tools for viewing these? I did find GovTrack.us but it seems to be down so I'm not sure if it solves this problem.

Tiptap open-sources 10 formerly Pro extensions under MIT license
Hi HN, as of the end of June, we’re open-sourcing a bunch of extensions that used to be part of our paid tier. They’ll be available for free under the MIT license. These include things like emoji support, drag handles, invisible characters, math, file handling, and more. Full list is at the bottom.
We started Tiptap a few years ago because we were frustrated by the state of rich text editors for modern apps. Most were either too limited, too rigid, or tried to solve everything with a monolithic setup. We wanted something more composable and framework-friendly, so we built it.
We originally monetized by selling individual “Pro” extensions. That worked early on, but over time we realized these smaller pieces weren’t where our value was. They were common needs, but not really our moat. In the meantime we’re focusing on larger feature bundles (like collaborative editing, AI-assisted content, documents, etc) that solve complete problems and include backend infra, UI components, and integration logic.
At the same time, we’ve sunset the free tier of Tiptap Cloud (where those extensions were included) and switched to a time-limited free trial. That wasn’t an easy call, but it helps us keep things sustainable while still supporting the open source side of the project and build the ecosystem and platform around.
We chose MIT over more restrictive licenses because we don’t want developers to worry about using these extensions in commercial work or side projects. That freedom is important to us. We’ll keep our core editor and these extensions open. The paid features now live in well-defined bundles tied to real product outcomes.
Here’s what’s free and open:
- Details, DetailsContent, DetailsSummary - Emoji - DragHandle (React and Vue) - FileHandler - InvisibleCharacters - Mathematics - TableOfContents - UniqueID Happy to answer questions, or just hear what you think. Curious how other folks have handled licensing shifts like this, or if you’ve had similar tradeoffs in open source vs. business goals.
Thanks, Philip

Show HN: SubmitYourProduct.to – A List of Launch Platforms
Hi HN!
It's Friday, not the best day to do it, but I just launched https://SubmitYourProduct.to
It's a simple tool that helps founders get visibility for their product by: • Listing 30+ curated directories and launch platforms • Showing tags like “free,” “AI,” “pricing", etc • Offering a “submit-for-me” option for people who don’t want to spend hours submitting the product
⸻
Why I built it:
I’ve launched loads of small projects (20+) and always ended up lost on where to launch. I wanted a single place where I could: 1. Find current places to publish 2. Filter by type (free, community, paid, AI, etc.)
So I made this. Right now it’s a directory + a done-for-you service, and I’m planning to add: • Auto-generation of launch copy (PH, Reddit, HN, etc.) • A founder-submitted platform review system • Weekly updates on what’s new or changed in the launch landscape
⸻
Ask:
If you’re a founder, I’d love to know: • Which launch platforms have worked for your launch? • What platforms should I add?

Show HN: I Built an Agent That Writes Fresh Newsletters for Any Topic
Recently, I was exploring the idea of using AI agents for real-time research and content generation.
To put that into practice, I thought why not try solving a problem I run into often? Creating high-quality, up-to-date newsletters without spending hours manually researching.
So I built a simple AI-powered Newsletter Agent that automatically researches a topic and generates a well-structured newsletter using the latest info from the web.
Here's what I used:
- Firecrawl Search API for real-time web scraping and content discovery - Nebius AI models for fast + cheap inference - Agno as the Agent Framework - Streamlit for the UI (It's easier for me)
The project isn’t overly complex, I’ve kept it lightweight and modular, but it’s a great way to explore how agents can automate research + content workflows.
If you're curious, I put together a walkthrough showing exactly how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDYnR_MlErg
And the full code is available here if you want to build on top of it: https://github.com/Arindam200/awesome-ai-apps/tree/main/simp...
Would love to hear how others are using AI for content creation or research. Also open to feedback or feature suggestions might add multi-topic newsletters next!
