Hopp Engineering Blog is the company blog at gethopp.app, writing about programming and web. Since 2025, 7 different Hacker News readers have linked it 20 times, most often “Lessons learned building a sub-100ms remote control app with Rust and LiveKit”. It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-07-23, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked for its posts on the Hopp remote pair programming app, including a latency exploration post. The comments only link to the blog and its posts, without judging the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
Hopp is built by developers, for developers. It delivers crisp screen sharing (HD), noise-free audio, and seamless remote control. Because programmers deserve better than a generic screen sharing tool.

HN discussionWe might have missed something here, but the `tauri://localhost` is the Webview memory in https://gethopp.app/blog/tauri-vs-electron#memory-usage , and the executable path is: `/System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework/Versions/A/XPCServices/com.apple.WebKit.WebContent.xpc/Contents/MacOS/com.apple.WebKit.WebContent`. The measurements were taken on macOS.
