I just spent 5 hours building in public and live tweeting, yet forgot to put hashtag #buildinpublic 🀦

The thread is hereπŸ‘‡
Let's have some fun!
In the next 3-4 hours I'm going to build an interactive web3 service, sharing the whole process in this thread.

No NFTs, no gas fees, 100% free and fun.

Let me tell you the idea first... πŸ‘‡
A/B test to determine how floating chat button affects conversion rate, first results.

Too early to make a decision, numbers might change. But interesting anyway. #marketing #buildinpublic twitter.com/ugnich/status/…
Started A/B test to see how pop-up chat (Intercom kind) on a page affects conversion of visitors into signups. B2C website, education.

Floating button + pop-up chat vs no button, no chat.

While waiting for results, what is your opinion? #marketing
We changed the way editing works on clever.page and I just love it! All margins are completely wild, I'll fix that later. So close to a usable product! πŸ™‚ #buildinpublic
I made a free printable "Thank You" card templates for small business.

Make your customers feel special: thankyou.plus

Retweet please, I'm sharing the templates for free!

This is bad. I should not show you this. Whoever said "if you're not ashamed - you launched too late" is wrong.

Just keep scrolling. The URL is clever.page but it's best if you don't sign up there.

Stay away. I warned you. #buildinpublic
I made WiseBoard: a whiteboard + video chat made special for teaching online.
wiseboard.live

It's free, no signup. Check it out, let me know what you think.

We finally finished the first stage of our website builder project! Can see the results here: example.clever.page

This is the most expensive "Hello world!" we've built so far. πŸ™‚ 4 people, 3 attempts and almost $2000 spent.

Next step: make some real websites! #buildinpublic
Made a Web3 project: etherfeed.live

Twitter-style service where you use your wallet to log in. And every "tweet" is signed with your personal key to ensure authenticity.

Gas-free, "tweets" are off-chain. What do you think?

Please fasten your seat belts, we're about to take off. 😎

This is our whiteboard project. To put things into perspective: I don't know these customers, never talked to them. Heck, I don't even know their emails because there is still no signup on the website. #buildinpublic
Pivoting AskFeedback from collecting feedback to increasing customers' satisfaction.

Which logo is better? #buildinpublic
Spent almost 5 days changing from "webcam permission is required" to optional. So many issues with iOS!

Added some drawing tools and many small important features that users asked for. Compare two screenshots below. πŸ˜‰
Next step: adding images and PDFs.

Resolved all the issues with WebRTC on iPhone. Added a responsive @getbootstrap 5 UI. Now making a whiteboard using @fabricjs

Want to ship it ASAP. Should not spend more than one week on MVP.

Virtual classroom #SaaS. The results of the first week.

Two metrics I will focus on at the beginning: 1) number of returning visitors; 2) average engagement time per session.

Follow me to find out how I will grow these two metrics.

Whipped up a simple landing page for beta users. Nothing fancy, will probably need to change everything soon anyway.

5 days of research, 7 days to build an MVP. Sending a first batch of invites today. #buildinpublic #SaaS twitter.com/ugnich/status/…
Printed two cards on a color laser printer. Looks awesome, very proud of myself. πŸ˜„

Need to make a few more templates and launch the service already.

Got feature requests from first users. You might think they want better video quality, fancy video backgrounds or more whiteboard drawing tools. Nope.

They want a manual on how to restore camera permissions in browser after they pressed "Deny". πŸ€”

Working on the video conferencing prototype. Already deployed two WebRTC hacks specifically for Apple devices, yet it still showing a black screen on iPhone.

Safari is a new Internet Explorer. twitter.com/ugnich/status/…
Soon on AskFeedback: personalized printable "Thank you" cards with QR codes for feedback, reviews and offers.

It's quite difficult to make a template to be fully editable + adjustable to different paper sizes. And we'll be making lots of them!

Started a "scratch your own itch" project: signup wizard builder.
Basically, a specialized #nocode form builder that can be connected to your existing APIs.

Proof of concept is here: app.wizard.monster

What do you think? #buildinpublic
Hired one more developer.
5 people (incl. me) working on 3 #SaaS simultaneously. 100% async, text communication only. We never saw or heard each other.
What a wonderful time to be alive. :)
