Looking for a front-end + product cofounder

I've been working for a bit on an app that helps people turn reading into a permanent, frequent habit and help them retain more of what they read. The app is available at https://trypotential.com

I'm looking to iteratively improve this, including addressing some of the gripes people have with Goodreads. I'm primarily a backend engineer, and am functional in react native (the framework the app is built in), and am looking for someone whose expertise is front-end development and is product focused.

Happy to answer any questions :)

    Hi Ishan,

    Just checked your app. Like the idea of “social pressure” + “read or donate” technique.

    Few startups ago, I have worked in a startup in the public libraries space. Based on your value proposition, I believe that entering public libraries space can help you validate desirability and viability.

    I would like to connect and learn more about your roadmap & growth thoughts.
    I am on the product and UX side of things.

    Hi Ishan, I'm a Full Stack developer based out of Bangalore, India. I've downloaded potential and seen the work done so far. I do feel that Bookshelf, Flashcards will make sense, once done. I'm curious to understand how you focus on revenue in the longer run.

    I've got a good understanding of Vue, React, CSS, JS. Can work with React Native too!!

    Hi Ishan! I'm a UX | Visual Designer also based in the bay area. Happy to share my portfolio and learn more about Potential, so feel free to reach out. My contact info is provided on my profile. (Note: I also have some gripes with Goodreads and believe there are changes that can be implemented to improve the product and users' overall experience.)
