Nothing beats working in open air, watching the blue sky and golden lined clouds! I am building retronote.app currently!

#buildinpublic

Not sure why but my engagement rate has gone down drastically! Not sure why. Maybe what I am tweeting and building is just not worth! Anyone with similar feeling?

I think it is now at a place where people can actually start writing on my app retronote.app. Pure markdown, no lock in, no signup to start, linked notes, notes only on your device, and quick publish to blog are few features that you can avail!

Have done few optimisations for mobile. Looks and the experience is far better than earlier. Will be better and better soon!

One drawback I found with this option is you will lose the control for first “escape” stroke. It is reserved to exit the full screen. You will still get the control after the first one though

Oh so it is shaping up really well. Here is a very dry version of linking the notes. Need to improve the interactions yet.

Cooking something interesting on retrnote.app. Stay tuned! It is going to improve the writing experience in terms of linking the notes, writing journals.

I am going to pause this feature for now. Looks like lot of passive thinking need to be done for this sync part. Meanwhile I will focus on journaling part

Love this full screen option on browsers! It makes my app look like a full screen native app. But I cannot enable it by default because browsers require it to be triggered by some sort of manual event like click

Writing after a short gap! Tech one this time. I could see that I am better at in explaining stuff in deep now! Happy for that! Will post a public link soon!

This is from google search console for retronote.app. Even though impressions are negligible, what makes the position to be so good? I still can't believe these numbers

I am building multi device support for retronote.app. Where do you want the back ups to happen?

One reply to a viral tweet and this is the result 👀 Still, not a quality traffic as most of them are are passing visitors. Conversion is is below avg compare to last two weeks. I don't want to talk about retention ;) But understood the power of viral tweets!

#buildinpublic

Will be working on the hardest feature on retronote.app. Will add multi device support keeping it still local first! This will be the idea
1. Encrypt and back it up on Google drive
2. Have minimal conflict resolution layer (if required, hope no crdt)

Added this clean URL viewer on regular markdown on retronote.app pretty clean yet just markdown!

#buildinpublic

Brought up the new "Privacy" section on the landing page of retronote.app. Precise and to the point. Happy for now

#buildinpublic

I just replied randomly about my app retronote.app on a #WWDC23 tweet which was have some 32k views and result is this 😱 So many hits suddenlyyy

#buildinpublic

Removed signin box as I am moving towards local first PWA app. I don't need users to log in just to start using my app. This is how it looks now. Removed most of the text. Just one button that takes to the app

#buildinpublic

I made app.retronote.app/write PWA finally! All the notes you take are completely stored on your machine! Privacy first!

A lot has been changed from the initial version of retronote.app to the current one. Gonna work on simplifying making the the content to the point. Let's see how it goes!
