Spottid

After a few hiccups with app stores and days of waiting for the app to be approved, Spottid is FINALLY LIVE and ready for people to try it.

In the last few months, I kept working on developing the app, but I spent more time doing product-related work than coding.

For me, the hard part is coming up with good copy and design and this is what takes me the most time. But with a lot of research and feedback, I managed to create something pretty good that I'm proud of.

I'm excited for what's to come, for trying to get more users and to make Spottid useful for many people.

Spottid is up and ready for people to join the waiting list.

The stack I used to build this landing page is: Laravel, Tailwindcss, AlpineJs and digital ocean.

I tried to implement best practices for landing page, have a clear message and make the page inclusive.

I wanted to have a single place where I could save the highlights and notes I take while reading books and listening to podcasts, so that I can easily revise them when needed. I decided to ditch the pen and paper and go the digital route, but none of the apps I tried were able to fulfill my needs - yes, I did try notion, google keep or simplenote. They all required a lot of hacks and/or they were slow and frustrating to use.

So I decided to take the advice I kept reading about and scratch my own itch. This way I would have the tool I wanted and maybe I could help others with similar needs.
