Learned a lot from it, handles css styles, init and other things nicely. #thanks #react #github #buildinpublic

TIL - Snowpack is a thing now. Setup a new project much faster, builds also much faster and it's so simple and nice. Love it. Webpack - you're powerful but hey for MVP going forward it's going to be Snowpack

#buildinpublic TIL - Create React App supports so-called "proxy" setting. Allows to can keep frontend on one port and API on another port _during development_ #react #javascript #nicetohaves

#buildinpublic - Frontporch (frontporch-ch.herokuapp.com) got +1 new design and default look. Also @joinClubhouse today had some server issues so Frontporch now works even when CH is down. #indiehacker #clubhouse #SMM

Random event from public tweets with the new design. Like?

TIL #buildinpublic - you can always build your own authentication flow using @passportjs or any other framework for the language you use.

For a fellow #indiehacker building an MVP, there are things to consider about #authentication to be efficient:

#buildinpublic update for today as we build @weliviocom no-code video calls for anyone
- added Windmill UI from @estevanmaito to use @tailwindcss with @reactjs - login + dashboard + light/dark themes (gosh I love it adjusts to my settings and time)
- working on signup/login flow

Is anyone interested in having #clubhouse for #indiehackers or #buildinpublic?

4. Don't be afraid to fail. Our first experiments took 6+ months each. This one took a week to come up with and build a very simple prototype and finally test it out in VR. And we love it. Preview youtu.be/9-pPl0lkwic
and soon on @sidequestvr

1. There are a lot of great assets on Unity Asset Store. They save a lot of time for prototypes and even exploration. You can't to make each asset purchase perfect - that's ok.

TIL #buildinpublic:
⚠️ If your site is SSL only - fix it. Almost any hosting/service offers free SSL via @letsencrypt. God bless them
💡 Found 2 ways to increase new product visibility - register your product on @GetMakerlog and @IndieHackers -> post updates. Tips/ideas welcome!

TIL something you think is simple enough can be simplified even further. As we discussed priorities and next steps for @weliviocom turned out we can achieve the same result with 1/2 work. Don't be afraid to cut ✂✂✂ Hope that helps other #indiehackers #buildinpublic #nocode

Something that worked well for landing pages is @gitlab pages. Gitlab has a lot of template projects that are ready to go (yes) and if you have a static-ish website - don’t spend money on hosting until you really need it #buildinpublic #gitlab #tips

Another update of #buildinpublic - setup landing page for livio (no-code video chat for any website).
welivio.com
made some preparations for next steps to actually give the service to first users #indiehackers #videocalls #nocode #saas

Today’s #buildinpublic report - created new landing to eval interest - memberkat.com (parallel track)
Have API and basic static site setup to get the free tier ready #indiehackers #startup #saas

#buildinpublic how are you all doing your landing pages? asking #indiehackers for advice since next.js + tailwind turns to be too complicated. So much for the hype (
