Day 37. After comparing a few cloud hosting providers, I decided on aws as I have experience with it and i'm in a hurry. Spent the day setting up docker compose and git on an EC2 instance. It's harder than you'd think. #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 36. Just when I was about to publish the docs, I realized that Postman expects the endpoints to be live. So I started laying the groundwork for deploying the app. I'm torn between heroku and aws. #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 35. All done with the Reports, and with that all the API reference documentation. I'll spend some time tomorrow proofreading, then I'll publish the docs on postman. #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 34. Still on the Assignments, I had to create and test new Transaction endpoints for assignments, both for the assigned and the cleared Transaction. Tomorrow I can start on the last part: Reports #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 31. Run into some problems involving the combination of Taxes and Discounts on the same Line Item. I have several ideas on how to solve them that I'll try tomorrow. #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 29. Finally done with the Transactions endpoint docs. Started on Line Items, though much of the work was already covered while dealing with the Transactions. They shouldn't take too long to clear. #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
Day 27 - 28. While working on Transactions and Line Items, had to involve Taxes and Discounts since they are all interconnected. Deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole... #buildinpublic@100dayscode#API#Bookkeeping#Accounting
1. Email templates in Mail Chimp 2. 4 blogs 3. 3 video tutorials 4. Four new features for companies using Xero 5. Improved 2 report features… #buildinpublic#Accounting#indiedeveloper
Day 9. All unit tests done. Started out with integration tests for the API endpoints. Laravel/Lumen out of the box testing is a true lifesaver for this one. @100dayscode#buildinpublic#laravel#API#Accounting
You can manage your finance only if you have clear picture of cash flow. Here I am building a tool which gives you overview of 1. MoM Income/Saving/Expense 2. Percent of growth/decline 3. Above details on individual account level
How do you manage your business finances? Any pain points?
Thinking about pivoting my minimalistic personal finance app @greenbooksapp to the business market. I think a single entry accounting app that links to banks is a great solution.
🖌️ right-click menu. Weekend work on the #uidesign to implement this week. Thoughts? 🖌️ re-visiting our website overhaul. 🧮 discovered an #accounting-data-as-a-service startup that could leapfrog our @QuickBooks and @Xero integration
🧨 day job is crazy (I run a VFX company). 🏆 team is still managing to move whatifi forward. Solved a major accounts and ledgers challenge - making us compatible with #Accounting packages like @QuickBooks
