My analytics api is on EC2...but:
- shuts down when I close ssh πŸ˜…
- do I need an api gateway πŸ€”
- currently only accessible through IP not DNS πŸ˜…

I have deployed an API in GCP before but totally new to AWS
#buildinpublic
important #buildinpublic update

the best way to procrastinate launching, marketing, fixing bugs?

2020: I launched my first app, spent weeks trying to get it in front of people, and only managed 50 installs.

2022: Built in public and my app has 66 installs in beta, it hasn't even launched yet.

I’m running out of time on the project. I only have a week left at max.

So I cleaned up the board and have switched priority to shipping at all costs βš“οΈ

Things like this are hard but necessary. #buildinpublic

Has anyone noticed any benefit from putting your product on the IndieHackers Products page?

Don't think anyone really actively searches for stuff on there πŸ€”

The only thing I got from it was a spam DM πŸ˜‚

Had to rejig the Charts design a bit, so that the user can sort between easy/medium/hard games and between week/month/year.

Designed the stats screen for @NotEvilSudoku, really happy with how it turned out 😍😍😍

The beta has only been out for 3 days but I've already gotten so much helpful feedback!

Will be releasing a build that should fix a lot of the problems soon ☺️

My first iOS app's beta is now public!

The build is pretty stable now (I think πŸ˜…) so if you encounter anything that's broken or could be improved, shoot me a DM πŸ“©

It's a clean Sudoku app built fully in SwiftUI πŸ“±

On January 1st, 2022, I decided to start tweeting every single day.

It has now been 80 days:

🦜 +150 followers

πŸ“š Countless bits of wisdom from amazing makers

πŸ”₯ Amazing support & kindness from everyone

Easily one of the best decisions I’ve made in years
#buildinpublic
@mistermeenr Thanks Joe ☺️☺️☺️

The best part about #buildinpublic is that I can go back and read the journey,
- my first tweet announcing it 🐣
- the time I almost quit because of that state issue πŸ˜…
- and all the other happy/sad moments

It’s been a real journey 🀠
Where are you indie making from?
