    Technically itโ€™s still Christmas another 90 minutes over here, but unfortunately I have to delay the launch another 24 hours. Found some really nasty bug in Hashr.ioโ€™s code, which I have to solve prior to launch.

    Paid options are off the table at the moment, just like the history. Caught a flu with fever yesterday as well. So I will be late.

    Mea maxima culpa... โ˜น๏ธ

      Let's be flexible with deadlines! ๐Ÿ˜‰

      Everyone's got the flu here too :(

      Cheers and get better soon (Y)

    I just launched some social features (likes and connections) on presbot.com. All the best to everyone.

    Great challenge! Best of luck for your launch

    I need to record a demo video for freshLoad.co

    Notes to self:

    • Keep it simple
    • Ok is better than nothing
    • Don't overthink
    • Just ship

      Got a video example up. It's not pretty...at all. And it's not representative of what buyers will be receiving, which isn't a smart thing to do, but I wanted something. As of now, everything works, so it has "launched". The biggest thing to do now is make the quality video I intend to make for people. Also page design, copy and getting people to see how it can help.

    The holidays are catching up with me. So much stuff to do, family duties and so on. I managed to work a bit in the morning and a bit in the evening. Happy with the progress I made but will have to launch without many of the features I was hoping to implement.

    What I have done yesterday
    โœ… Set up the domain with heroku (only http for now) at http://www.resolut.it
    โœ… Implemented the possibility to delete resolutions
    โœ… Made material for launch on Product Hunt
    โœ… Scheduled the launch for today on PH

    Plan for December 24
    ๐Ÿ”ณ Fix the view for mobile
    ๐Ÿ”ณ Set up https
    ๐Ÿ”ณ Work on the feature to track resolution progress

    Thanks a lot to @omneity for the tips on how to create GIFs for my product. Hugely helpful!

    Will launch on PH around 5 pm CET. It will probably be ๐Ÿฆ—๐Ÿฆ—๐Ÿฆ— but curious to see what happens anyway...

      I suggest also looking at Betalist.

      Hey my pleasure!

      Here's a quick tip for https: Use cloudflare to manage your DNS and they will issue an https certificate for you. It's not the best solution but definitely the fastest / with least effort

      Re: PH
      But can you launch on the same day? My understanding is that you can only schedule a PH launch and it will be released the next day, all products at once.

      PS: Also may I ask you to change monitoro.xyz in the main post to https://monitoro.xyz if possible ๐Ÿ™thank you!

        Oh I see. Indeed I have scheduled it yesterday for today. Hope I didn't screw up

        Thanks for all the tips!

      I actually got a trademark claim from LEGO
      :O

      How did they reach out to you? Was it through Namecheap's abuse mechanism?
