I made an app to turn your friends into accountability partners—in 24 hours on a plane ✈️
Hey Indie Hackers,
Instead of sleeping in the most uncomfortable position for 24 hours, I asked Twitter what should I build on my journey from Bali 🌴 to Paris 🗼
So here I am, coding an app in the most uncomfortable position for 24 hours without Stack Overflow 😆 (full-journey breakdown on Twitter )
After 24 hours, the app was available! It’s called Buddy Crush. It lets you create accountability groups to keep track of your habits with your friends. You can also join existing groups to make new friends.
To keep you motivated and accountable, you can see other users' activity and compete for the 30-day leaderboard 🏆
This project is new so I’m here reading all the comments to improve it ☺️
PS: It's live on Product Hunt for 24 hours if you want to send some love ❤️
I like the idea and your website :).
Thank you so much!
This is great. I hope you do crush it. I have wanted something like this because i NEED accountability. Going to share with my friends so we finish our sh!t!!!
Go do it! And please let me know if you have some suggestions.
Thanks for stopping by!
WOW! 20 Hours , that's impressive! What tech stack did you use for the project?
Front: TailwindsCSS + React + DaisyUI, packed in NextJS
Back: NextJS /API and MongoDB Atlas for the database
Haha, that's so awesome Marc!
Love the idea, that's a bit what Indiehackers is to me. It's such a small thing, but once you understand and respect it. Then it becomes so powerful!
Exactly! It's good you can see behind the scene, thanks for your warm words Philip!
Sounds like such a fun experience. Love the concept and the way you came to the idea. Good luck with the product/launch!
Thanks Allison, and Twitter for giving me the idea 🤩
I have two more questions :)
What was your Product Hunt pre launch strategy? - please elaborate.
I like your landing page. What template and vector graphics did you use?
DaisyUI.com for the components
Undraw for the vector graphics
The PH strategy is fairly simple:
I'm getting luckier with launches because I have a small following now, but it started with 20 upvotes at the end of the day and no traffic
