Ok, time to test this bad boy.

Steps for this:
1. Add your LLM's API key
2. Get an API key from Beaker
3. Make requests and they will show up here

Going to ship Beakr.dev today

Will tweet as I build today :)

Goals:
1. The ability to track latency and cost of different prompts
2. Ability to save a prompt and access via API

On the edge of buying a new domain for a side project 😱

I've decided to park metrik.app (SAAS product to visualise roadmaps) for now. Building in public should be as much about talking about fails / tries, as it is about wins. Here's why I decided to stop 🧵

Do you mock up a design before you start writing code?

Anyone got a good suggestion for debouncing a controlled input on React? 🤯

User types -> 300ms later a drop down shows up with filtered options -> user clicks -> state updates

When you're building, you'll need to switch between a 10,000 ft view vs. a super specific problem. Example:

10,000 ft view: will my product solve X problem for Y niche?

Specific: how do I build a search bar and debounce requests?

Embrace both.

If you’re working on a new product / service / idea, there’s only 2 things to do at the very start:

Build
Sell

They aren’t sequential. Start selling while you build.

Has anyone built / used a search bar on @tailwindcss where suggestions show as the user types?

If you're building, you will be daunted by products around you that seem perfect.

These products are usually cobbled together. They launched somehow, executed well and do what they need to. That's all that matters.

Start building.

If you’re running an early stage #B2B #SaaS business, don’t jump in and throw up a pricing page. Figure out broad ranges: <$10, <$100 < $1000. Talk to customers to validate the range. Then set your pricing within the range based on value provided + positioning.

Weekend is nearly here, ie. turn off work and turn on side hustle ✌🏽

How did you decide pricing for your #SaaS product?

If you are learning web development, this is the best cheat code:

- Open your favourite web application on Chrome
- Right click and hit 'Inspect'
- Study how the components are structured and styled

#buildinpublic #webdev #SaaS

Write code

Hit roadblock

Spend 30 mins trying to figure it out

Do the dishes / take a walk

Figure it out in 1 min

Repeat

New landing page is nearly there. Love how easy @tailwindcss is.

Going to migrate from @MaterialUI to @tailwindcss. I'll document my journey in the thread below. Might be useful for other folks thinking of doing the same. 🧵

Anyone know a good #Tailwindcss starter kit? Happy to pay for it.
