I'll never lose a note again.

Improved saving experience - no more anxiety 👏

Just type, leave page, refresh, doesn't matter @qoiiapp saves your progress 😘

#buildinpublic #indiehackers #NoCode twitter.com/bryanrcosta/st…
Goal: smooth auto-save experience (think Google docs)

My approach:
- user makes changes to note
- changes stored locally
- certain flows to retrieve values stored and update thing (via backend workflows
- reset localstorage values if and when necessary
Progress update:

I have some inconsistencies when saving notes.

Just doesn’t add up - was debugging workflows until 3am - have some ideas to try out - hopefully something works as expected 😂

This is just part of the journey I guess 🤷‍♂️

Next on my list: auto-save notes

Rn notes only save when a user closes the note view - this isn't ideal.. 😖

If I reload the page before closing the note, all unsaved progress is lost 🤬

Progress update: I have a working prototype 🤩

User wants to save bookmark:
- Creates note
- Pastes url
- Closes note

Qoii:
- Updates note with url metadata (title, image)
- Displays fancy note 😍

I started building @qoiiapp 1 month ago.

Here's a monthly progress update:

🧵

Basics, basics basics

Alright - so my entries are showing 👍

Now let me see if I can setup a domains structure kinda like twitter has 🤷‍♂️

#buildinpublic #nocode @bubble twitter.com/bryanrcosta/st…

Okay - I have failed miserably trying to build a @bubble plugin 😂

There definitely are a few take aways from this though:

I’m going to build my first @bubble plugin!! 🤩

On weekends, I like to take the time to widen my horizons… ↔️🌅

This weekend’s pick:

What would be the easiest way to run and a npm package and connect it with @bubble ?

Notes can now be assigned to galaxies!! 🎉

Now I can structure and shape my universe in @qoiiapp

#buildinpublic twitter.com/bryanrcosta/st…
How much focus do you need to have, to use focus groups in @bubble ?

I’m hating this tbh

Any alternatives to it?

#nocode
My universe has galaxies! 🎉

Now I need to be able to assign notes to galaxies 🤔

#buildinpublic twitter.com/bryanrcosta/st…
My universe needs galaxies
I can now display images in my universe! 🎉

Still have to manually create an entry, and upload image through DB 😂

But I've scratched that itch - now on to building galaxies for my universe in @qoiiapp

#buildinpublic #indiehackers
@bubble BOOM!

Native image element used - I'm happy with the result!

Thanks for the help! @NocodeTalks @mattblake_uk
UI update 🎨

Made a few changes - love the clean look.

Can't wait to have different types of content in my universe, and see it pop 😍

#buildinpublic #indiehackers #nocode #productivity #notes #app
Btw anyone part of the #buildinpublic or #indiehackers with an invite for #wip? ☺️

Would like to share/track my progress w/ @qoiiapp & @getpiqup get/give feedback and participate in discussions around #nocode

Got a background in product

Check my feed to see if I’d be a fit 🙏
Inbox to @qoiiapp

New notes appear in inbox (default) where they await to be curated/assigned to places in my universe.

Added empty state since I can't assign notes to anything in my universe 😂

First step:

When I create notes, my need is to capture my thoughts

I don’t want to think of frameworks, structures, etc.

I need an inbox.

I want to be inspired by my notes.

My goal starting today: improve my my note-taking habits w/ @qoiiapp
1/

I’ve developed some bad habits by not having a better framework for note-taking.

Like how I’ll add context in the name (eg: Qoii - Bubble - plugin for text input)

Import notes from dev ✅

Wouldn't consider this feature polished or make it available to users - but it worked for my 20 notes!

#buildinpublic #indiehackers #NoCode twitter.com/bryanrcosta/st…
Just realized I was creating all my notes in @qoiiapp dev env instead of production 😅

I guess I need to build a csv import feature 🤷‍♂️

I wonder if I'll be able to import notes from other apps then 🤔
