As there's lock down in many countries, are you working on anything as a side project or experimenting something, mind sharing the link?

I am a blogger and a developer, and would love to see what people are working on currently as a side project or experimenting something.

I would be more then happy to use your product/service and give first-user review of the same.

Let me know if you are stuck somewhere in the project, will try to help you out with suggestions or one-on-one call.

    I’m working on https://usegravity.app/hackr

    It’s a landing page builder for indie hackers with testing and analytics included.

    Started it at the beginning of U.K. lockdown and aiming to have something available for test this/next week.

      Interesting.
      would love to try it out, keep me posted about it's beta launch.

    We started rebuilding https://horizontech.dev on Jan. Static page is almost done. Would love your thoughts.

    Currently, our students are working on building a portfolio generator and job recommender project. Hopefully we can release those by end of this month.

      would love to know more about this.

        For Sure. Email and Twitter is on the profile.

    I've been working on https://litt.nyc as a service for organizing meetups. We have pivoted temporarily into virtual meetups/events. Would love your thoughts here or email hello@getlitt.app especially if anyone organizes events!

      Improve UI. I will check functionality of the app and get back to you.
      You can also reach out to me on hello@axitmehta.com

    I am trying to feature startup stories about online stores. I am experimenting if they will do guest posting on my blog to boost SEO & build a better online branding. Unfortunately, very few store owners are willing to share. These merchants are typically more conservative and not willing to share anything to leak the secret sauce. Store owners are a very different group of people compared with makers. Not sure if I can find some niche sellers to talk about themselves.

      Hey, Your Idea is good.
      but to be honest, you will have to change domain name, if you are serious about this project and planning for something long term.

      Very first thing is research and get something brand-able for a domain name.

      1. 1

        I already have a domain name in my mind which is available. The blog is under my Shopify App called SPO. So I'm just trying to interview my existing users to see if they're interested in interviews.

        If the responses are good, I can move forward to make it into a community. Otherwise, it can still help my paid users and my effort is not wasted.

    Hey Axit,

    right now, I'm working on UpMock (http://upmock.io).

    The idea is to enable designers to create beautiful 3d mockups in a short time without needing to learn hard to use 3D software like Blender or Maya.

    Maybe I can define my USP more clear or in better words?

    1. 1

      Yes, tell me more about it.

    Thanks for offering @Axitmehta. Working on anekdote.co with a friend and seeing some small traction with word of mouth and social media.
    We're experimenting with simple design and concepts. Not sure where that'll take us ;)

    1. 1

      looks good mate. UI is also nice, though need to work bit on UI part. Keep it as simple as it is right now.

      I liked this part the most: No Google, No Facebook, No cookies, No Nonsense. We just check the numbers of visitors with a custom instance of Matomo installed on our servers.

      What is your goal with this? and from where you are getting traffic right now?

      1. 1

        Thanks for the feedback.
        We've always struggled to ship, in a way, that's our attempt in getting something out and building a community around it.
        The traffic comes mostly from Twitter, IG, and a newsletter we've had for some time ;)

          Interesting. Like the post, let's bump so that more people can comment and share about their projects.

    Hi,

    I am currently exploring the Twitter API it's not a product, but just a fun side project. The bot follows people based on keywords I provide but it ended up following people I really wasn't interested in so I started again. What would you suggest in terms of bots? What cool bots should I create for fun ?

    1. 1

      Is your current bot up and running?

      1. 1

        Yep, follow me on Twitter @S1000ry to see the progress.

        1. 1

          Done. Like the post, let's bump so that more people can comment and share about their projects.
