What are you building this month? [May 2021]

Sergio seems to have disappeared so I'll post it this month I guess

What are you building? Share what's going on and what your goals are for this month, and give feedback to others! Make sure to include your project link and tell us what it's about :)

AddictedToApps.com

I’m going to refresh, make some improvements and streamline the process

I hope @sergio is doing alright, it's been a while for sure.

Otherwise, I'm working on building Indie Icebreakers. It's a 1:1 community for Indie Makers to connect, with others, network, and I'm hosting weekly events, starting this week for icebreakes/

We've got a few members(around 25+), and I'm just trying to figure out a way to engage the community.

What about you?

Continuing to build https://intheloop.dev.

Keeping up with the ever-changing developer ecosystem can be tough. Intheloop helps stay up-to-date with the technologies you're interested in.

I'm currently adding new topics and trying to speed up the process before I dive into digests/notifications/personal feed.

@kevcodez Looks cool! I tried to sign up but it didn't send me the confirmation email.

@archie Have you checked your spam folder? You're not the first one to report this. I have no idea why.

Yeah, it's not in my spam folder, and I can't try to sign up again because the server returns a 400 error saying that I've already registered.

By the way, I have just finished building my own free email login service which is pretty easy to implement and has a bunch of neat features, so that'd remove all the hassle of users having to confirm their email address and stuff (plus, if they're using a gmail address, it goes to Sign in with Google which is more convenient!)

If you're interested, there are some docs and really good examples by other devs on https://identity.alles.cx, and if you use Node.js, there's a package for it (but the HTTP API is really simple to use yourself anyway). I'd be happy to help you set it up if you want :)

@archie I have the double opt-in for GDPR reasons in Europe (based in Germany), so using a different service wouldn't get rid of the confirmation email unfortunately

@kevcodez Is it still necessary to sent a verification email if you've already verified they own the account though?

I just released the second interview on QuickTalks.io and I plan to record at least three more interviews this month and release another three. In addition, I'll continue working on theLIFEBOARD. I plan to separate the website from the app itself and at the same time improve the design. I also have to work on the emails that are sent to users to improve retention and talk with current users to get some feedback And on top of that, I hope I can publish a couple of articles in my blog

Caproni, a simple podcast publishing platform. Caproni is the only podcast host that lets you sell digital goodies and merch directly to your audience.

This month I will keep improving the podcast websites feature. I'm planning on adding simple blogging and the ability to add arbitrary HTML (for embedding forms e.g. newsletter signup forms).

A simple signin system that acts as a middleman between multiple signin services so you only need to worry about one ID for everyone

I'm working on making a better experience for our corporate accounts at #giftsdone and also bringing on more suppliers. I have a long list of features planned, but I am still dragging my feet on a lot of them when they don't fix bugs. I have a wireframe built out and a draft version of #reminderprogress that makes stats for the built in iOS reminders - so data and productivity geeks like me can see stats. I continue to kick the can down the road for an update of my older iOS apps. - maybe :)

I'm continuing to make improvements and add new features to Lucid. I'm also starting to dedicate more time to Sotent which I haven't officially announced yet, however it is a social media content creation and planning toolkit.

@nwby That's pretty cool! I'm actually working on https://identity.alles.cx, would you be interested in using it for login?

0 Likes

@archie I just gave your demo site a test and it worked brilliantly! This is definitely something I'm going to make a note of for authentication. I've not decided on how I want to implement the auth for #sotent yet. Anywhere I can reach out to you? Twitter? Email?

Hi, I'm on a 15 day challenge to build and launch a product! I've posted all about it on Indie Hackers at https://www.indiehackers.com/post/ive-got-covid-19-so-i-m-challenging-myself-to-build-an-app-in-15-days-in-complete-isolation-here-s-my-story-23358cd612

The product is a tool to help other Indie Hackers find original, inspiring, ready-to-go social media content - tailor made to their niche using human + GPT-3.

It's called Fanramp!

@sheran If you want to get the login done real quick, I've been making my own thing in the past 2 weeks - https://identity.alles.cx

Take a look, it's like sign in with google/apple but for any email address, and it has some pretty cool features. Let me know what you think :)

I'm building 🦊 foxyapps. This month I would like to get more traffic by promoting it in different channels and get some feedback on what would people like to see in terms of new features.

@catico The images don't seem to be loading for me, but other than that the site is pretty nice! Also you're using Svelte? I've been meaning to try that, what's it like?
