Hashzag
Organize your hashtags.
And we're live!
Pushing out a new product is always nerve-wracking, but it wasn't as bad this time because Hashzag is a tool I use and enjoy...so who cares if no one else likes it! Still, I wanted to share it with the world, so I wrote an IH post to see if I can entice a few people to join me (no one yet, but maybe you'll be the first?). 😉
I decided to use Hashzag as a way to learn React. After watching several tutorial series by The Net Ninja on YouTube, I dove in, starting by creating a basic dashboard to allow me to add hashtags. I slowly built out features as well as an aesthetic that was sleek and satisfying to use.
As they say, build for yourself. You're your best user.
For months, I relied on a Google Spreadsheet to organize and categorize my Instagram hashtags.
Depending on the type of post, I used formulas to generate randomized sets of hashtags from different categories, for example “web development” and “startups”. The whole thing became unbearably messy, so I decided to build something to solve my problem. The idea for Hashzag was born!
