I just did customer support for #localazy, and the developer on the other side was so happy with our service that he gave me a lifetime membership of his app for free! 😍 Awesome!

Even if it's an internal tool, it's extremely important to make it efficient, so it actually supports your business the right way.

Do you use content marketing? How do you control where, when, what, who is about to share, reshare, post, comment, etc.?

Wanna talk about our tool? Add me on twitter and get in touch.

Today, I put together a small administrative tool to search users, projects & organizations and to do some essential operations. It will improve and speed up our customer support.

It's no technical miracle - Kotlin/Javalin serving static Bootstrap forms rendered by Freemarker, and the whole thing is packed as a Docker container. But it was really a matter of just a few hours to get it glued together. Most of the time, I wrote SQL queries for obtaining projects across users, organizations & teams, and stuff like this.

The best one is the notification about new apps that integrate Localazy. Motivation!

For several days, I was under pressure with too much things happening. Now, I finally resolved the last email in my inbox. Happy!

The last night, I was sure everything is done and ready to be push to production. Today, it took me several hours to get it up and running on testing server :-).

It adds a lot of improvements for managing files, tagging localization, CDN, format support, batch operations, etc.

It's going to be a simple way to deliver localizable files worldwide!

Today, I worked on many improvements to make Localazy better for our customers - mostly improved support for PO/POT, RESX and XLIFF formats, and ICU message format.

But it's not the kind of progress I would like to see. It's improving Localazy without visible added value. You know, it's not fun :-).

Over the few last days, I mostly worked on sales, business administration and things related to it. Today, I finally find some spare time to do some improvements of the Localazy backend.

For a couple of last days, I worked too much and not slept long enough. I already feel that it's affecting my mood significantly. It also affects my productivity.

On top of it, the very long list of tasks made me feel even worse.

Instead of picking another one, I thought for a while. I'm unable to do all of them today anyway, so I split them into logical groups and reschedule them over the next three days.

It looks more realistic now, and my mood is already getting better.

I feel that I can do all the work today and have a few spare minutes to work on more strategic things.
