Git Gardener
Daily, automated commits that turn your GitHub green
Slow and steady wins the race! GitHub Gardener is still growing organically and just hit $100 MRR! Just to show how organic it is, I normally work about 30 minutes per week on GitHub Gardener, that's all
When I launched on PH, I only launched with a Free version and an email box for people that want to get notified when I supposedly finished the paid tier. I saw some interest, so I decided to build a paid version. Funny enough, now it's at $50 MRR

After launching, GitHub Gardener finished 3rd on a Sunday. This way my first "successful" launch. I was super pumped!
Again, the launch play by play can be found in this twitter thread: https://twitter.com/alexsideris_/status/993523095708332032
Beware, just another cliche passing by...
Bored after polishing and over engineering several MVPs for 6 months with terrible results, I decided to build the first thing that came to my mind completely in the open and launch it inside a week.

That awesome, congrats!
... but since it's starting to get traction, I would think about the name. Have you checked if using "Github" in your name will not cause you any issues down the road? It might be better - if that's the case - to change it now, rather than when you'll have 2000 customers.
Good luck :)
That's a valid point, I think I'll do that. Thanks!
Congrats on the milestone. I read your website and I'm a little confused about the product. What exactly does it commit? I get the concept of making your commit graph green but what are the individual commits? Does it remind you to contribute to open source or something else?
Winning :)
Awesome side project :-)
Well done Alex. Have you got a link? Wouldn't mind checking it out.
Congratulations!! Hard-earned $100 :)
