#TIL while #buildinpublic: Spend time to plan far ahead. Yes, just said you should be agile and move fast. Strategic long-term thinking might show what features are going to be AWESOME and you end up doing them earlier. And winning π₯
The usual #TIL: Keep features small when #buildinpublic. Less is more at this stage. Adding a new feature in 1 day is impossible for larger companies. They don't move that fast. You do. Play your strengths. It's ok if you move slow. Whatever works for you - works for you.
#TIL while #buildinpublic: Dogfood is important. Use your product daily. It makes a difference. You are not your users and it's good and bad. Spot technical issues earlier than users will send a bug report
Quote of the day - Slow and steady wins the race. What's brewing #buildinpublic: - slack integration (helps dogfooding and dogfood is good for #indiehackers) - users can see and play with the Livio embed right on our landing page (try it out!) welivio.com 1/2
- work in progress for chat/status/names infrastructure for Livio βοΈ - created roadmap for the next 6-12 months π - a lot more usage (still internal) - reached out to potential users, got good feedback so far!
#TIL#buildinpublic CSS frameworks definitely boost your productivity if you know them. Otherwise learning curve. Obvious stuff. However, pure CSS3 grid/flex might be a better choice to start with.
#nocode#buildinpublic last week summary: - no more robotic voices on Safari - layout improved for larger screens - security improvements for API calls (and some others are on the way) - even though we're early into the stage it's important to get some foundational stuff in
Adding more branding options to fit styling in all our showcase templates. Yep, that means Livio will work on any website and you will have #nocode branded video call/meeting/webinar experience on your terms #buildinpublic#indiehackers#webdev#webrtc
We've added a set of opensource websites with #videocall#nocode widget integrated to showcase how Livio can work in different websites, layouts, and use cases. Already spotted and fixed few issues! πͺ
#buildinpublic update - our videocalls now support safari (mobile and desktop). Not thatβs a major achievement but a lot of self rolled out systems canβt get Safari right. So if you are having issues - signup to our updates. #webdev#indiehacker#videocalls#nocode
The main goal we keep in front of us - giving a #nocode#videocalls alternative that showcases your brand, your business, and works for you. Also, it feels so good to #buildinpublic. Thank you to everyone out there supporting #makers and #indiehackers.
We're getting closer to our MVP π You can preview the whole video call experience while changing your branding and colors and customizing the widget. Livio now provides a mocked mode so you can see and feel it w/o actually running a call #buildinpublic 1/3
#buildinpublic another update on Livio's progress! - pre-call check/setup experience is almost done, we can get into a #videocall - drawing examples of our "clients" to know how exactly Livio solves the problem - simpler email subscription form and ...
