Show HN: I built a 1.8MB native app with self-built UI, vision and AI libraries

https://github.com/Okery/Aivition

jaramy•2mo ago
Hi everyone,

I'd like to share Aivition, a native AI image processing tool I built. It is a 1.8MB executable, written entirely from scratch in C++ without using any third-party or open-source libraries.

It is powered by three self-built, lightweight libraries:

A UI library implemented directly against the pure Win32 API.

A computer vision library that handles image decoding, encoding, and processing (like OpenCV).

An AI inference library that runs neural networks locally (like PyTorch).

I use it daily and hope it might be useful for others.

I'd be grateful for any feedback on performance, compatibility, or your general experience with it.

gabrielsroka•2mo ago
What's the license? I'm guessing it's not open source because you didn't publish the source.
jaramy•2mo ago
There is no license. It's just an app, not an open source project.
simonw•2mo ago
You may find you get more value out of this project if you publish the source code - even if you do so not under an open source license.

Asking people to download and run an untrusted Windows executable is a major barrier to demonstrating your skills. I don't even have a Windows machine to hand to try it out on!

Showing the source code would give people a much better idea of what you can do.

If you're not willing to publish the source code (and that's a perfectly reasonable decision, it's your work!) I suggest creating a video that demonstrates the project.

salviati•2mo ago
I think the name "app" is quite universally recognized as "mobile application", i.e. application for iOS or Android.

I think you should call it "application" to avoid confusion. Windows application would be even clearer.

jaramy•2mo ago
I agree with you. I used "app" just as a shorthand for "application".
soulofmischief•2mo ago
On my personal computer running macOS, I have this program called "App Store". And on my GNU/Linux machine, I have all of these weird programs distributed as something called "AppImage". And on my Windows machine, the Microsoft Store has a tagline which says, "Microsoft Store - Download apps, games & more".

There is not a desktop/mobile distinction in terminology other than the one you're attempting to enforce.

freedomben•2mo ago
Yep, as much as I wish there were a distinction, I think there pretty clearly is not anymore. In related news, I hate that restaurants are now calling "Appetizers" "apps" because it massively confuses me for several seconds. IRL really needs namespacing
soulofmischief•2mo ago
Going out and ordering apps with my friends sounds like a good time.
salviati•2mo ago
I thought providing my point of view was contributing to the discussion. I didn't mean to enforce anything.

I still don't think most people would call Excel or Photoshop "apps", but I'm absorbing the points of view expressed in the replies to my comment.

mmmlinux•2mo ago
What happened to executable?
salviati•2mo ago
`/bin/ls` is an executable but it's not an application. The two terms are different.
soulofmischief•2mo ago
An application might contain one or more executables.
orev•2mo ago
No, that ship sailed long ago. “App” has universally been a synonym for “application”, “program”, etc. for quite a number of years now. Even Windows 10 called them “apps” in the settings screen.
Allstar•2mo ago
Since this project does not publish its source-code, or publish its binaries on an official store-front, I feel the need to call out to be aware of malicious code.
Lalabadie•2mo ago
I think it's the first time I see a Github repo used as a sort of advertisement (without actual code – there's plenty of performative OSS out there).

The whole thing feels more clumsy than malicious, but without any in-use video I'm still suspicious.

My first thought is "post it on Github and share it on HackerNews" is a thing ChatGPT would advise to someone asking how to promote an app they built.

It's the image.dll. The library only processes image data. I'm looking into why a specialized library is being flagged as a virus.
busymom0•2mo ago
This has to be the most useless GitHub link someone has shared on HN. The repo doesn't have any source code, just some JPG, a readme, a Google Drive link for people to download from. The title makes grand claims without any way to verify them and no way to check if has a virus or something. People should be careful before downloading this.
