02 Share what you accomplished yesterday.

03 Share what you commit to accomplishing today.

04 COMMNET on AT LEAST ONE fellow hacker's progress and give them an IH Point for their check in. Let's get in there with the encouragement/feedback!

      Did you lose it for not doing the minimum amount of activity on it?

      1. 1

        Something like that and I lost it when I started the redesign and stoped pushing for traffic.

    2. 1

      For what purpose will you use the Amazon product API?

      1. 1

        I use it to automate the list making, this way the creators dont have to go and get the affiliate links themselves

    Epic

    Add eBay support to AZLabels

    Yesterday

    • All tests passing on CollectTrust
    • Click tracking working on CollectTrust
    • Created a landing page for AZLabels upgrades
    • Completed the Prime Day campaign, worked with Nikki to create social media accounts
    • Fixed a failing test on the AZLabels API

    Today

    • Lots of various appts today, including getting a 4D ultrasound of our first baby coming in a month (!). So won't be getting a ton done.
    • Test the front-end of CollectTrust after the new tests. Push the full updates to production if there aren't any major bugs.

    Stuck

    • Still struggling with the overall marketing plan for AZLabels. Thinking about something I read from Rocketship Agency about top-of-funnel, middle-of-funnel, and bottom-of-funnel content. Wondering how that applies to a niche service like AZLabels. If anyone has advice/experience in that area, would love to hear it.
    1. 1

      Hope you really enjoyed that 4D! I remember the first time I saw one of mine in 4D, was really wild

    2. 1

      Congrats on the upcoming baby girl or boy!

    My brain is tired so I can only muster up doing lite admin work tonight... C'mon spreadsheet, CRM and Spotify playlist- sexy @$$ Saturday night πŸ˜˜πŸ‘©πŸΎβ€πŸ’»

    1. 1

      The sexiest thing I've done on any weekend night is work on a spreadsheet. Dreams turning real is a heck of a thing

    2. 1

      (Laughing!) #SexyAF! Hey! Just saw your messages today, on-call went HAM and I got very little done yesterday. But I love the co-working session idea! What's your timezone? I'm summer-ing it up for the next two weekend, but maybe we could make something happen in August?

    Hello everyone. !

    ....and my Epic for July is...

    Yesterday:

    I a creating a teeny tiny possible addition to colorsandfonts.com.

    It's a color palette toggle where the user, well, toggles the toggle and it will change the color palette for the sandbox below.

    Live demo here:

    • Cold colors palette light mode theme.

    • Cold colors palette dark mode theme.

    • Warm colors palette light mode theme.

    • Warm colors palette dark mode theme.

    Today:

    • Open figma
    • Create 10 palettes
    • Create 10 gradients
    • Prepare them to share in Dribbble and Instagram.
    • Code warm light mode.
    • Code warm dark mode.

    Work in progress:

    Live demo here:

    The toggle is placed on the navbar ( right now just works the cold colors themes, I am not ready with the other ones )

    Hoping to decide if adding this to colorsansfonts.com or....make it a product and make it able to toggle the palettes featured on Colors & fonts.

    Feedback is always welcome!

    Edit:

    You guys work a lot! Hope you have a nice time working with your projects.
    Can't wait to see Makers Part List ready.

    Have a good y'all!
