Created a Slack Integration

I just finished the core feature, in my opinion, to make whena.re a paid product.

I just finished implementing a Slack integration. My goal now is to make the app grow, have a few users test the integration, and come up with a pricing model.

I encountered a bunch of technical hurdles along the way, and it made me realize why "nocode" will make sense to a lot of people. I don't think the issue is about learning to code. Any app will be as complex as a coding app. I think the issue is with dealing with the complexity of having many different pieces of code interacting together.

I had issues with most of the tools I used, they were not reliable enough or had latency problem (nextjs on Vercel). I was constantly wondering if I should switch tools or keep on implementing more and more complex solutions.
