Epic: Get 1 new paying customer for Showuply.
Yesterday: Started building an MVP for Find Thy Peeps, a quick sidetrack of my main project that I built because I needed to build it anyway to improve my cold outreach efforts.
Today: Finish the Find Thy Peeps MVP (only meant to be a 36 hour project) so I can get back to my main thing.
Kudos: To @Harlem for building something that intrigued me enough to go past standard NSFW practices at the Starbucks I'm currently sitting in. Had to do a hard quit, but will revisit soon - cuz naturally I chose the "kink" route ;)
Hey Patrick! That's pretty impressive, I have seen your MVP and bookmarked it, it is a pretty cool 36 hour project. Kudos for that!
Awesome, thanks Chris!
(Laughing!) Thanks for checking me out! And +1 for bookmarking the shit out of Find Thy Peeps. Very cool spin off!
Epic: 10 sales on Asciiprints.com
Yesterday: Wrote intro post on /r/entrepreneur, filled out Indie Hackers profile, submitted 4 new designs to team for adding to site, submitted site to BetaList, invited friends to FB page.
Today: Research gamers/influencers on Twitch/Youtube, research paid ads on Tumblr
Kudos to @ernestofreyreg. webhook dev is a pain so thank you for this.
WIP: https://asciiprints.com
Very clean site, and love the product. Will definitely be recommending. GL!
Thank you!
Agree re site design! Although I'll say the second panel was more powerful for me than the first! What a fun concept! Looking forward to following the sales count ticker!
Thank you!
Hey guys!
Epic: I am working on finishing up on all stuff related to my new endeavor http://wecut.video, video editing services.
Today: I am in Denmark, so it is already Sunday here, but today we have finished our new logo and lined out our prices and packages for the editing. So tomorrow is the update of the website with the new info and design.
Yesterday: Well, not really but on Monday, I have handed in my Master's thesis, so this week after celebration, I could focus on building the business and on my other ideas.
Kudos @Harlem Happyendin.gs is a pretty interesting idea ;) I have already forwarded it to my gf :D
WIP: Have been developing a pretty fun way to gamify networking event, will share it soon in here too! (www.networkingbingo.com)
Thanks for the kudos and the forward! Any feedback is welcome!
And have you got two side projects going? Which one is your main (side) squeeze?
Soft launch: https://envhook.io
Please note this is a dev oriented service. Still some API methods/documentation missing. But I think is working ok now.
Next: Finish API methods/docs. Subscription page. Almost there :)
Hmmmm. How does this work? And what's the value? (I'm a newbie, so humor my newbie inquiry!) I've gathered that this enables one to set up different key/value pairs for different environments. Is that right? And if yes, how does your product simplify this process?
Let me describe the problem first:
SaaS providers usually include setting a webhook so when something happens in your account they can notify automatically and in real time to your app. This is becoming a widespread practice. You can find it on auth providers, email providers, etc. The problem is that usually this providers only allow to set only one webhook URL. But when you want to integrate the same service on several environments it becomes a annoying problem.
Envhooks provide a way to create a single webhook URL that has some routing logic depending on payload data or query parameters and redirects the requests made to the envhook to the correct environment.
This solves the problem in a very simple way allowing to add some features in the way like:
support for redirects to local dev
support for retries
This is something I built for my personal use. Helped me on other projects, but decided to open it up for the world.
