Fixpoint is a React.js-based Hacker News reader.
- Fully single-page
- Implements front page and story comments page functionality
- Updates in real-time
- Front page is searchable/filterable
- Fast as heck, thanks to React's virtual DOM diffing engine
- In addition to React, uses the react-mini-router and Moment.js libraries
- Uses HN's Firebase API as its backend, allowing the app to be hosted on Github Pages
- Real-time updates were easy to implement thanks to Firebase's architecture and the ReactFire hooks for React
- User pages
- Front page pagination
- Correct comment counts (currently only shows top-level comment count, since I didn't feel like writing an async recursive algorithm to traverse the comment tree)
