August 28, 2020 Launched on Hacker News

Posted on Show HN, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24295154.

The launch did not grab a lot of attention. I did not receive any comments.

Probably the timing of the post was not right or HN may not be the correct platform to reach out to my target customers.

August 27, 2020 Finished MVP

I developed the product during my weekends for about 11 months.

The tech stack is as follows:
Frontend - Vanilla JavaScript
Backend - Django (Python)
Database - PostgreSQL
Infrastructure - Elastic Beanstalk (EB) on Amazon Web Services (AWS)
I am using many open-source libraries that I do not mention here. Truly, I am standing on the shoulders of giants, thank you.

August 22, 2020 Started to use it on my own blog

Updated 2 of my blog articles to test the product.

  1. https://laujohn.com/2018/09/24/Plot-Keras-Model-in-Colaboratory/
  2. https://laujohn.com/2019/07/15/How-to-Explain-Decision-Tree-Prediction/

Testing it this way allowed me to catch some bugs, fix those bugs, and tweak the design a little bit.

To solve personal pain point of not being able to easily share Jupyter Notebooks in my blog articles and allow the readers to easily save and run the Jupyter Notebooks.
