November 29, 2019 Cracked 10 sales!!!

While not a large number and I'm not going to be retiring any time soon, I got 10 sales for my Mac To Do List App. This is my first attempt at building and selling a product and am learning quite a bit around "product discovery". I've spent more time trying to promote and advertise my product than I did actually coding it. Quite a valuable experience. If you have any advice on your experience in growing sales for your product, I'd be happy to hear from you. Cheers!

      No. My license fee is one time.

November 13, 2019 Finished v1.0 of Touch Bar To Do

First milestone reached when I finally completed v1.0 of Touch Bar To do. I spent nights and weekends on this as a side project and wanted to see how people reacted to it. It's my first attempt at building and selling a product so I welcome your feedback as I go into my journey as an indie hacker.

I know what you're thinking...."not another To Do List!" - I'm sure all aspiring developers have thought about creating the perfect "To Do List" at some point in their careers. I'm no different....perhaps naive but I always thought that the MacBook's Touch Bar was grossly underutilized. Touch Bar To Do aims to provide an intuitive way to access your task list any time via your MacBook's Touch Bar. It also combines the Pomodoro Technique to boost your productivity.

I coded the entier app using Swift and am using GumRoad to handle the payment processing. I am truly excited to finally reach a milestone and look forward to any feedback.
