Show HN: Zuck.js, a JavaScript library that lets you add Stories everywhere (opens in new tab)

The idea is that facebook has added stories to facebook, instagram, whatsapp and facebook messenger in a frenetic binge presumable attempt to crush snapchat.

Some would say Facebook/Zuckerberg has gone too far in copying competitors' features into Instagram/Faceboook. Snapchat's Stories is a recent example of this. Hence Zuck.js

Yeah, I don't get it either. Thanks for asking.

But he's making the world more "open and connected!" (by bringing internet to third world countries and restricting them to his website...)

He did give $75 million to a hospital serving poor, elderly people, uninsured working families, and immigrants. So he's not all bad.

Thanks to FB, it is now such in every language :)

expand please or let me know what language!

I'm actually quite surprised to not see something like "Professional Stories" at LinkedIn. Basically stories but sharing your professional accomplishments or something.

I hope to continue to not see these on LinkedIn. The site is bad enough already.

Or Yammer

If they'd have referenced Sally, I'd have totally have been on board.

I still have no idea what it is or what it does. Someone told me it's this feature, "Stories," but what does that mean? Does it have something to do with those text-on-gradient images that have been popping up? Like a status update but on top of some colors?

Instagrams keeps getting new (and weirdly cutesy) new features like stickers and stuff

It was a joke based on Facebook's attempts to clone Snapchat's features by adding stories to Instagram and Whatsapp.

It might be a fun way to share live coding snippets.

Love that project, but that evergreen buildbadge with the Volkswagen logo is just gold.

Because it's making fun of Facebook adding stories into to all of their apps.
