July 4, 2019 Finished MVP

So today is a great day for me.. I finally finished writing the MVP for Oyster Alerts.

For about 6 months i've had the signup page working but the core feature (account checking was not implemented).

Well I have just finished off the account checking software, which is effectively a screen scraper to check user accounts. Along side the screen scraper, it deactivates accounts with invalid credentials (so I don't block the account) and also emails the users a summary of their incomplete journeys.

This is enough for me to go and start recruiting users and add value to their lives so they can save time and money :)

Wish me luck :)

This solves my own problem. I kept on forgetting to check the TFL (London, UK) website for penalty fares, which cost me extra money. I built Oyster Alerts to automatically check for these penalty fares, and alert me.
