Show HN: Deepswapp Browser: browser the browser with another browser

Deepswapp Browser, a desktop app written in Golang, lets users view a website's data in another website's layout, a transformation the project calls a "deepswapp." The app opens a separate Chrome instance that mirrors tabs from the user's main browser, ships with several prebuilt deepswapps so no AI subscription is needed for a test drive, and generates a fresh deepswapp in around 10 minutes at a cost of about $0.40 on deepseek-v4.1-flash, roughly halved when deepswapping a known website. The project states that AI-generated JavaScript never executes in the user's main browser and that a completed deepswapp is reusable without AI, with web and mobile access plus parallel swaps on the roadmap.

A "deepswapp" of a website has data from one website in a layout of another website. Deepswapp Browser allows users to seamlessly browse this alternative version of the Internet, today.

Once deepswapped, the website transformation is reusable without AI. Single-file HTML page Only essential data rendered Synchronized tabs Synchronized scrolling No backgrounds No animations Data auto-refresh Image lazy loading This desktop app works on every platform Docker images also available and opens a separate Chrome instance, which mirrors opened tabs in the user's main browser. Several deepswapps are included with the download, so no AI subscription is needed for a test drive. A fresh deepswapp takes around 10 minutes and costs about $0.40c on deepseek-v4.1-flash. This goes down by half when deepswapping a known website. Tech side: fully in Golang, with AI-generated JavaScript never executing in the user's main browser. Roadmap: Web and Mobile access, even deeper swaps, parallel swaps. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50241269 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50241269 Points: 1 Comments: 0
