I am starting my first product...

The product is Bipdash (https://getmakerlog.com/products/bipdash).

And the first task was to get access to Twitter Developer API. I am actually pleased by the process, it is quite easy and we get tokens in about 5 mins.
I had to setup Twitter API access in the past for a previous job (in 2018) and it took me more than a month to get the same Developer level access to Twitter API.
So well done Twitter devs!

Next post should be about how I plan to build the app.

@uluhonolulu I'll update the project. I find tremendous value in what people share while building in public. Bipdash would be a database consolidating all resources (people, products, tweets, media links …) in the shape of a knowledge graph. A user interface would allow user to parse this information quickly and see connections between products, makers, the various relationships between resources themselves etc… Collecting the data, transform it and load it on a regular basis shouldnt be a problem, but I have to figure out where to host the data without paying a consequent amount of money.

All the best with Bipdash!

@uluhonolulu I will opt for mongoDB with Atlas and the free 500mb. Let's see how far I can go with that first

@JohnitoChaos can you tell us a bit more about your project? I was curious and checked the profile but there was nothing there. P.S. I think product hashtags work only in task titles…

I think it could be useful for makers (newcomer or experienced) to find inspiration or just learn quickly about the "build in public" current works/trends etc… Perhaps this kind of project already exists? I did not find, but it would be useful to know!
