I wanted to see daily and weekly top 10 stories and also ask/show hn stories. So I wrote a HTML5 webapp that works on all browsers including ios/android. http://premii.com/hn/ http://premii.com/hn/ There are still few bugs that i need to fix.

I liked how you chose to represent the hierarchy of comments. I also liked the fact that you are showing the articles within your web app rather than redirecting, but it got me worried about how reliable that may be.

  I am using readability to fetch article content. I have been using it and read 500+ articles. It works pretty good for most sites except "show hn".

I really like this. It's super easy to use and the dark theme looks great. My only comment would be that the header text (e.g. comments, setting etc.) can be hard to read on the default (HN orange) color scheme. Nice.

  I have purposely kept it light as those are not as important as other things. Once you know how app works, you don't need to read those. But, I will play with some colors to make it more readable.

wow your reader is beautiful! it's also pretty awesome in the browser (chrome 26) when the content renders to the right of the articles-list. (wrote a similiar client for startup-news once with readability-integration and can confirm that it's reliable for most articles...similiar to when you use Pocket for example) UPDATE: the only thing that does not work on Chrome-mobile (mobile-Safari also) for iOS is the back-button of your app (comments-button works though)...

  I am not able to reproduce this. If you don't mind could you copy and paste what you see on this page. http://premii.com/play/ua.htm http://premii.com/play/ua.htm

It's beautiful, and the animations on the mobile site look great. It's also one of the best-performing web apps I've used. Nice job.

  I use http://cheeaun.github.io/hackerweb/ http://cheeaun.github.io/hackerweb/ — it's also web app but it is the best looking HN readear out there and I've tried a dozen of them. I'd love to have a native app with this look, and was even going to do one myself, but I guess that will never happen — there are already to many apps for HN :)

    I made an open source Hacker News app that's inspired from HackerWeb: https://github.com/weiran/Hackers https://github.com/weiran/Hackers No iPad version yet, working on that for 2.0.

Thanks a lot - feels much better than any other iOS/Android HN reader app I've seen.
