DevFirstSearch
Interview prep app for software engineers
I posted on teamblind.com about my app and linked to my site.
After replying to a couple of comments, I saw in my Django admin dashboard that two users had signed up, and one had left a new interview experience post.
This marked the first real user to post on my site without my prompting. I'm thrilled!
I started to do a "soft launch" of the site. As of now, it's deployed through Heroku and publicly available.
I don't require signups for viewing interview data points right now, although signups are required for creation and updates of interviews.
I made a preliminary post on teamblind.com to start getting feedback. Planning to market via my YouTube channel and LinkedIn in the coming weeks.

It took me about 6 months, but I finally finished the MVP for DevFirstSearch.
The trickiest part was building the input form, since it uses nested Django formsets (I even had to whip out recursion!).
Now I'm ready to refine and get it out there. The next step is to do a soft launch and start to get real user feedback.

I noticed that there wasn't a centralized place to learn from other engineers' interview prep strategies. The only sources of information were posts scattered across Blind, leetcode forums and Glassdoor.
