Show HN: Bx - Slick invoicing, expenses, time tracking & projects Hi HN! After a few months of developing a product on the side, I've decided to post it to HN. I'll be honest, I am a bit nervous about it as I know how discerning the audience here can be, but I guess constructive criticism can't be a bad thing! My project is a progressive web app called Bx (pronounced "Books"). It's a tool to help you run your business and includes: > Invoicing and payments (via stripe) > Expenses > Time tracking > Project management > Inventory management > Slick, interactive dashboards It's nothing new or radical, but many of the existing tools I tried in my own business felt clunky, slow and dated, so I decided to build something more efficient, using my own business as a guinea pig. I wanted to build the app as a progressive web app (PWA) that provides a rich native-like experience on any device. I also wanted it to be somewhat functional, even when offline. I think I've achieved both to some extent, and now have a single, clean(ish!) code-base that works well in any modern browser, on pretty much any device.

The USB Type-C take over has already started, and as this year comes to an end, we expect to see a few more smartphones and tablets hit the market bundling compatibility for the third-generation connection. As it stands, handsets that currently feature Type-C ports only ship with a single cable and that annoyingly doesn’t support computer connectivity, so if users want to transfer files to their devices, they have to purchase an additional wire or adapter. However, these accessories aren’t cheap, so customers veer towards the more affordable, third-party cables readily available on marketplaces, such as Amazon and eBay, but that’s not a good thing. Many consumers have reported that these chargers have caused harm to their handsets, so Google Engineer Benson Leung has taken it upon himself to purchase a selection of Type-C connectors from Amazon to test and see if they meet the standard specifications for use on his Nexus device. So far, Leung has been through seven cables and clai...
