My 4th little web app in a week. #feelingproud
Little things can make you happy.😊
It might not seem like a major achievement to most of you (if you have years of experience in development) but I'm pretty proud of my little web app (powered by Flask, HTML, CSS & pure JS (no jquery)). It's the 4th app I've built in a week (I'm now officially obsessed with coding).
It may come handy if you happen to travel between the UK and the EU (yep, it still happens after Brexit).
👉 Check it out on https://ukeu.adsy.me/
It was developed in PyCharm (that's the ID I use mostly for my Python scripts) and is hosted ("dockerized") on Google Cloud Run, deployed via CLI.
If you're also in the early days of your (late) journey as a developer and are interested to know how I created this little project, please leave a comment below. I plan to live stream a one-on-one walkthrough of the code (493 lines of JS) with a handful of people and share the recording on my Youtube channel.
If you're selected to join me for the live stream (via Restream), you'll learn something and have great fun at the same time.
Let's celebrate the joy of coding 🍻
Awesome!! I'm on a similar journey. It's led to an awesome new set of opportunities.
Congrats! Let's keep going! :)
Thanks! Have you developed some cool stuff you'd like to share?
I built a small Pomodoro extension and building a mobile app now.
I love the sales pitch (the distraction time calculator). Users are buying?
Not quite! I have another saas that's bigger and does the same thing and more. So I was using this as a way to increase market awareness.
Simple and nice interface :-) Good job
should try to deliver more too
Thanks for your kind words. Any question or personal project you'd like to share?
Haha yes always
I am working on a figma to code generator --> to generate react code locally
I am looking for testers 😍 (so hard to find!)
Would be great if you are working with reactJs too
Here is the plugin link: https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1182681929363034995
If you want to be a tester let me know
PS: do the figma examples to understand all the features possible :-)
Thanks. I've never coded in React but I'll keep this link for when I do (if I do). Cheers.
Congrats... Amazing Super Cool!
Nice app! Always be happy of the small progresses.
For Evoke, every new follower I get on twitter posting about it is a step for me.
Thats's super cool! I haven't done a ton of web apps but it's definitely something I want to do in the future more often. Good job bro!
Thanks so much. I plan to explain the build process and answer questions in a livestream. If you're interested to join, send me an email to [email protected]
Keep at it, learning by actually coding something and shipping it is so much more valuable than reading tutorials.
Keep at it, making & shipping, iterating when you there's more potential in a small idea you've coded.
Enjoy creating and let the hard times teach you what you need to know next.
You're doing great!
Thanks ;-) It's indeed only the beginning. I'm hooked.
Keep up the momentum. I think this is a good use case to be turned into an ios app and a good opportunity to learn a little bit about mobile technologies. Either rewritten as a native mobile app or packaging what you already have as a hybrid mobile app.
Thanks for your suggestions. I'll definitely keep on exploring the wonders of coding ;-)
As a newbie joining an indiehackers' community, may I ask how long does it takes from zero knowledge of coding til you can build a site like this?
As Stephane said, it's quite difficult to say. Few people actually start from scratch. I've been dabbling with HTML and CSS for 10+ years, mostly to fine tune the UI of WordPress sites. I took the plunge into actual coding, via Python, in early October 2022, mainly to code SEO-related scripts to complement what I was achieving with Make(Integromat). Then I got hooked and started playing with Flask, a Python-based web framework. I would say that I've been dedicating at least 20 hours per week to coding tasks since Oct 1st, 2022, so that's a total of roughly 300 hours. My goal is now to develop little single page applications which interact with APIs (AI or not. See for instance what I created on http://ai.adsy.me/).
Depends on the people, personnally i'd say for a complete beginner minimum 2 months, especially if you code everything from scratch
It's nice to see that you've made a simple thing, but you're doing it right because you're passionate about creating things, which encourages you to build bigger products. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for your kind feedback. Cheers. Frédérick
