#buildinpublic

Terminology going forward:

Companies customize.
People personalize.

Write it down. That'll be important for later.

#buildinpublic

To help break creative blocks I like to grab random pictures from publicdomainpictures.net and add random animations to them from canvaslanguage.com/studio

#animation

#buildinpublic

I've created side projects then I move on to other things & discarded old work when they failed.

I stopped discarding. Now I roll failed work/code/projects into the next project.

I'm not sure if that is a good strategy or if it holds me back.

What do you do?

#buildinpublic

I think I'll store animation project files on CloudFlare, just with KV, but index them for the gallery on the local mySQL database.

Just thinking of our loud.

#buildinpublic #SaaS

I'm toying with this pricing model, but worried of too many signup in the free zone. Thoughts? I should point out that you probably only need one API per visit.

#buildinpublic

I think I need to build the marketplace first. It won't be a marketplace right away, just a gallery where users can download animation project templates - for games, gifs, overlays, etc.

I just don't know how to build the marketplace. #NoCode ? a #CMS ? #PHP?

#buildinpublic

I found this customizable animation from a while ago that I've never used public.
I added it to the animation studio.

Please note, that QR code does nothing. It's just a demo.

#buildinpublic

I woke up and realized I don't know what 2 techs to use for the next big steps.
1. A UI that users can plug into their sites to ease customizations. I'm thinking React, but 🤔 I don't know React
2. A store-like experience to host animation project files.

Is there space in #NoCode for an SCL animation plugin to be made? I mean for NoCode sites to run the animations - perhaps by a plugin

But Canvas Language is code, but also templates.

Examples with the code that I'm talking about: canvaslanguage.com/showcase

#buildinpublic

#buildinpublic

I'm not just building an animation SaaS, I'm building an animation SaaS that lets other people build animation SaaS on top of it.

(like turtles on turtles all the way down)
(gosh darn, it's sure fun and easy to make new animations from SCL templates)

So is it #buildinpublic or #buildinginpublic ?

Have I been getting it wrong the last couple days?

I'm creatively tapped and have no idea what to do with myself. I need a convergent problem that I can just narrow in on and solve. #buildinpublic

#buildinpublic as I work on getting a new NFT project running, I'm only going to be re-tweeting from my gif project in the meantime. I think the NFT project will be pretty exciting when done. I'll be tweeting about it lots when it's ready.

My final interpretation of all this is: Backlinks is All.
If you lose backlinks via any change, reverting that change won't solve your problem. You still have to manually work to get the backlinks back.

#buildinpublic I've almost completely forgot about my main project. Instead I'm concentrating on gifs. Christmas gifs, a new NFT project, and trying to get more traffic to the gif site.
But that Canvas Language Animation Studio still exists. Would love your feedback.

Stupid question of the day: should I call my #NFT folder ...com/nft or ...com/nfts ? I can't decide if that 's' belongs there or not. #NFTs #buildinpublic because stupid indecision like this is how time gets wasted :P

One of these #Christmas #gifs was used by a cruise line this morning to send out Christmas party invitations. A small success. Maybe you can use as well: editablegifs.com/office-christm…
I'll be adding more gif templates to that real soon. #buildinpublic

#SEO can be so discouraging. Last week I had 3 phrases ranked 9,11,12 and thought maybe I can get them all on the front page. After some effort, this week they are all 17,20,17. What the hell did I do?!?!?!?
#buildinpublic

#buildinpublic Was just about to post an extra feature to the studio when my "last" test found a corner case bug. Grrrr.... hopefully this is a quick fix.

#buildinpublic My main project is online now. No traffic - thus this Twitter. I don't plan to pay for ads. I see I have 2 goals: SEO low traffic keyword searches like "html canvas" and "web animation", then, somehow, show visitors asap on page arrival, how good this is. #webdev
