       Show HN: Airdraw
        
       Hey Everyone! I wanted to show my passion project I made a few
       years back and recently turned into a web app.  Airdraw is an app
       that takes in your hand gestures and converts it into real time
       drawing capabilities.  There are tons of stuff I want to build with
       this, but most importantly just put it out into the world! Hope you
       all enjoy :)  Tested on my MacOS with Chrome, Safari, and FF  I
       included a link to the original GH project I wrote here -
       https://github.com/arefmalek/airdraw and a link to the blog where I
       explained how I made it here -

           | MP website, and i also make requests out to the MP website
