Let this be fun, dammit! 😂
That's the battlecry. Let's face it - much of the web and apps we interact with everyday are just soooo boring (Indie Hackers excepted of course 😉).
No personality. Flat everything. And complex, besides.
What's called the "No Code" movement today is what I used to call "No, duh!" when I was a baby developer back in 1999. Who really wants to create UI via the written form anyhow?
So I decided to do something about it. I'm taking my crusade ⚔️ against boring to one of the most boring applications of all time - the spreadsheet! 🔥
And 🌜DreamSheet was born! 🙌
It's early. There's still a lot to be done.
But if our hearts are pure we will prevail!🦁
I want to thank this community for helping me will this into being.
It's not much right now, but if you're at all curious about what's to come please follow https://twitter.com/RealDreamSheet on Twitter and sign up for a special early user program at https://dreamsheet.app.
I'm going to be open about the development of 🌜DreamSheet the whole way. Thank you for the pos vibes and let me know how I could help your venture be successful too. 😄
hi Tom, how will this work, can you share more info?
Thanks for asking @seansta! 🙂
I'm building a better landing page explaining the initial functionality now. The starting target audience is specifically those Excel users who make heavy us of their spreadsheet data converting to presentations placed in Powerpoint slides or similar.
The value prop is speed and ease of use - to start!
The next phase is building and extending functionality within the spreadsheet itself. I'm still analyzing my potential market and early enough to change focus based on my research.
Hey Tom, this is a really exciting promise but in a world of a lot of ways for me to go from data to presentation (tho yes maybe none as sweet as you're thinking) I'd love to see a little glimpse of what this might do for me on the pitch site. Totally understand you're getting a feel for interest, just sell me a tiny bit more! :)
Hi @brent415!
I am making a better landing page explaining visually what the first iteration will be. I know there's competition in this space but I don't mind that. It serves to prove to me there's a valid market here.
As soon as the new landing page is ready I'll be sure to let everyone know. Thanks for taking the time to write me.
Look forward to showing you more soon! :)
I'm curious how DreamSheet will shape up. Good luck on your journey Tom!
Thanks Phillip!
