Ordaloca launch page for businesses is almost live! Just been screen grabbing every device!

#buildinpublic #shoplocal #startups @OrdalocaHQ
To date I've had nothing but incredible customer experiences with Crisp.chat.

Use them! β€οΈπŸ‘

We are finalising the steps for customers to create "coming soon" pages, whilst they build a store. This tells local customers they are launching, who can then follow for updates + rewards.

πŸ”₯ Our web customer experience is almost completely rebuilt and feels very close to our mobile app experience now.

πŸͺ‘🧡 I love this part. When the loose ends get stitched back together and you can feel the UX unity.

πŸ“Έ A flashback to where the Ordaloca journey began.

This started in April 2018 as a quickly hacked prototype! Trying to sell the idea of getting a coffee delivered directly to me in the park! β˜•οΈ

πŸ”” Today's update...

✍️ We require content to be in markdown.

πŸ‘€ After the endless hunt for WYSIWYG editors, we built our own (using our own components) on top of the brilliant tiptap.dev @tiptap_editor - which I highly recommend ❀️.

😬 As we started our FIRST onboarding session with a business customer today (using mobile Safari), this section was still deploying.

πŸ˜… 2 mins before we reached "How to add product variants" the deployment succeeded...

AND IT WORKED! πŸ₯³
