Show HN: Cervantes yet Another HN Reader

[pelagicAustral]

I've been switching between macOS, Linux and Windows machines quite a bit recently due to work, so it's been tough work to find a reader I enjoy using across all platforms, and there are a few features I've been wanting for a while...

...so I one-shotted Cervantes over the weekend. It's a Tauri-based cross-platform desktop app. At heart it will allow you to simply browse HN but I added the ability to favv'e users so you can see their content, you can replace words, it will flag frontpage thread movement and you have a dark interface.

It's not too pretentious, i don't think. Design-wise was also done via Claude Design.

This looks great, thanks for sharing. I see that Windows is mentioned/planed, but I don't see any downloads?

Ah, I havent built it on a Windows machine yet, I have build and tested on macOS and Linux, but I am not returning to work on my Windows machine until next week, so thats why the build is not there yet.

I was also vibe coding a multi platform Tauri2 app the other day and Claude suggested to install a CI/CD pipeline directly in GitHub, so I agreed, and now each and every release automatically includes all three major platforms. Maybe that approach could be useful for you.

Sounds pretty good, thanks for the tip!
