Show HN: Online Bubble Level
Developer artiomyak launched A Bubble Level, a browser-based tool that uses device sensors to replicate a physical spirit level.
A Bubble Level, a free web-based spirit level tool, launched on August 19, 2026, posted to Hacker News as a Show HN by developer artiomyak, per the HN submission.
The tool, accessible at abubblelevel.com, runs entirely in the browser and is designed to replicate the function of a physical bubble level using the orientation sensors built into modern smartphones and tablets. No app installation is required.
Beyond what the HN post states, no additional detail is available about the developer's background, location, or any associated company. The submission received 1 point and no comments at the time of publication.
Browser-based device-sensor utilities occupy a small but consistent niche on platforms like HN, where developers share single-purpose tools that take advantage of the Web APIs — such as the DeviceOrientation API — that expose accelerometer and gyroscope data to web pages without requiring native app permissions on most mobile platforms. No funding, team size, or roadmap information was included in the submission.
