I built a TV for developers 📺 (13 live channels, no signup)
Description and use
DEV·TV is a static web page that streams 13 live tech news channels without signup, fetching data directly from public APIs.
Problem
Developers spend hours opening many tabs to read tech news, but often miss important updates.
Outcome
DEV·TV delivers real‑time tech news in a single, no‑signup interface, achieving high engagement (Product Hunt #5, IndieLink #1).
Workflow
- Open https://shouvik12.github.io/devtv
- Use ←/→ or 1–9 keys to change channels
- Press G to view guide
- Press Space to play/freeze
- Press Esc to close a story and return to channel
Evidence
I open ten tabs every morning just to find out what happened in tech overnight.
DEV·TV is vanilla HTML, CSS and JavaScript. No framework, no build step, no npm packages, no backend.
Your browser calls each public API directly with fetch():
