🚀 Excited to share this: I’m writing a book. It's aimed at Rails devs who want to start using AI in their work. I’m launching early - it's mostly just notes so far. If it could help you, check it out: worried.ai 📚🤖 #buildinpublic #chatgpt #rubyonrails

What are you working on?

I'm building a Twitter clone in #rubyonrails
, precisely working on user activities.

Thinking about how much code I would have to write to achieve the same results without LLM makes me feel really anxious.

Do you want to test out this project via API? Reply here, and I'll DM you the details.

Working on a template feature in @AdventurePlane this weekend and drawing inspiration from @ConvertKit as to how they manage templates and even the UI around education and drawing the users attention!

Shipping from the plane today ⛴️✈️

Whatever it takes to launch #UnlockAnywhere by Christmas 🎄🎅🏻

#IndieHackers #BuildInPublic #RubyonRails
#BuildInPublic update for #UnlockAnywhere

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

3 steps process to get started:
1. Log In/Register
2. Initialise Device
3. Scan QR code to unlock ur mac from mobile

#IndieHackers #RubyonRails #Electron
@KarteDrop Also pushed a small update to lazy-load large images throughout the app.

Fought getting swiperjs lazy load to play nice with #rubyonrails image_tag. Was about to give up when I switched to plain #HTML img tags and it immediately worked. 🤦

#buildinginpublic #buildinpublic
One thing I learnt from top #IndieHackers is to just keep shipping. 🚢

I keep track of all my random ideas here. 💡

Currently building something simple: #UnlockAnywhere.
Unlocking your computer securely, from anywhere.
Releasing soon!

Finished the @hCaptcha config for @KarteDrop last night and pushed to production.

Second #RubyonRails integration and very painless through the HCaptcha gem - github.com/CapSens/hcaptc…

Giving my @hatchboxio account a deployment workout last night tuning @kartedrop email templates.

Any tricks to test email templates that contain @awscloud assets in prod, but locally from dev (other than dev storage on AWS too)?

#rubyonrails #buildinpublic #buildinginpublic
Spent this evening building the #rubyonrails mailer templates for @KarteDrop and getting everything flowing through @postmarkapp.

Happy enough with how the Karte delivery email (below) looks that we rolled the feature live! 🎉

Missed our self-imposed launch deadline of 11/1 by 2 minutes. Unlike #ELONMUSK, not going to fire our dev (me) for missing an arbitrary date.

Version 1 is lean, next batch of features rolling out this weekend. Thanks all!

Worked on the #postcard builder interface last night.

Simple #rubyonrails form, themed to look like the rendered card with a #stimulusjs controller to handle the image previews.

#buildinpublic #buildinginpublic
I made a quick thing today!

A #rubyonrails app to create and share digital #postcards.

Now playing around with collecting cards into "trips" and generating maps showing the "sent-from" location of your cards.

#buildinpublic #buildinginpublic
This first iteration is pretty basic - full page reload when generating new cards.

Now wiring it up with Turbo Frames.

#rubyonrails #buildinpublic

First version of the #DisneylandResort BINGO card generator is now live!

Generate random cards and download print-friendly PDFs

Signed-in users can filter for specific by locations (DL, DCA) or season.

Coming soon: Card sharing and suggesting squares
Replaced a clunky/buggy stimulus based Search component in acropedia.co this AM with a Hotwire implementation in less than an hour.

Far less code, way easier to maintain, and ... it just works ... AND ... its fast.

#rubyonrails #saas #buildinpublic #hotwire
Today starts my #buildinpublic post. My plan is post at a minimum, weekly updates, which I hope is a reasonable cadence for me. I mainly work on #rubyonrails projects, but since I have to learn Swift for work (don't ask, j/k) 😂 I may share on that topic too.
Hopefully this is useful to some other #SaaS builders or #rubyonrails folks who might be experiencing a similar issue.

Adding Notes and Comments support throughout @qabuddyapp documentation pages.

From sketch in my @FieldNotesBrand notebook to live in the #rubyonrails app this evening.

Getting ready to push a @qabuddyapp build to add support for a new use case - REALLY manual #qualityassurance.

You can now turn your Test Cases into printable PDF instructions and check sheets for fully offline testing.

Updated the blog to @bridgetownrb

Bumped production @qabuddyapp to the #rubyonrails 7.0.3.1 security release and successfully deployed on @render tonight.

rubyonrails.org/2022/7/12/Rail…

Took the opportunity to bump #Ruby from 3.0.1 to 3.1.2 while I was at it.

#buildinpublic
New @qabuddyapp build is live. 🎉

You can now sign up for an alert when our free version for #OpenSource projects launches - qabuddy.app/oss

#softwaretesting #buildinpublic #rubyonrails
After banging my head against it for a few days,
@qabuddyapp now supports users with multiple tenants (w/ unique roles) and on-the-fly switching.

Currently, a very hacky build out of ErwinM and
@excid3's ActsAsTenant gem, but feels like a big win.

A little more work today on the @qabuddyapp marketing page. It's getting there...slowly.

Father's day and nephew's first birthday so not much #buildinpublic progress on @qabuddy last weekend.

I did get a bit of form work done. Slider is a #rubyonrails range field and 3 lines of code in a #stimulusjs controller.

Way cleaner than writing sliders with #jQuery!
Moved @qabuddyapp over to @render and stuck it behind its domain (qabuddy.app).

Worked on hooking up paper_trail last night to get version histories for my ActionText fields. Displaying history info as a recent activity dashboard feed.

For Unbrea.ch I enabled @heroku's Review Apps so that on each pull request we can actually try the app, see the change live, not just a code diff. Heroku pushes the state to @github which shows a button that opens the app. It's a #rubyonrails app. #buildinpublic

I really should also be tracking aggregated user traffic levels / origins.

Don't want to:
a) Use google analytics
b) Pay for this service (initially).

What should I use? Can add something to the #rubyonrails site.

Day 62: mostly worked on @sig_five
Today. Built out the base of the static pages (home, about, contact). Installed bootstrap (I'll rip it out later) mainly to do rough layout. Tomorrow I'll add secure passwords. #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 62: mostly worked on @sig_five
Well I didn't get as far as I wanted, mainly dealt with some bugs and finished out some basic layout stuff. Was fun seeing the logo on the webpage for the first time :) #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 63/64: mostly worked on @sig_five. Finished the user model and started password security. More work on the password stuff today. #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 65: feels like I'm making a lot of progress. Worked on @sig_five. Finished password security and the basic login form(still can't login yet). Maybe tomorrow. #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 67: Worked on @sig_five. Attempted to add @tailwindcss to the project but its not going good. Could use some assistance getting it to work in a rails project :) #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 68: Worked on @sig_five. Added @jgthms' Bulma to the app. Works great, didn't have to fight with it to get it to work. Very easy to use. Proceeded to build out a navbar and front page. Going to use this on my personal site. #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 69: Worked on @sig_five. Added @jgthms' Bulma to the app. Started fleshing out the sign up form with CSS. I think I fell asleep somewhere between div tags and embedded ruby 😅 #100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 72: Worked on @sig_five. Login is almost completed. Becoming a lot more comfortable in @rails , fixing bugs is almost a joy 😂#100DaysOfCode #rubyonrails #buildinpublic
Day 73: Worked on @sig_five
Managed to get some working css in. Not super pretty or anything, but will serve for now until I get a designer :P Signing up and logging in works as well. ignore the beautiful debug info on the screens 😂

1. Subscription payment flow with Stripe and Rails 6.
2. How to push your changes to the repository by GitHub API and RoR?
What do you think about it?
#buildinpublic #rubyonrails #blog
Updates on Which3DPrinter.com/blog, my #buildinpublic project.

I made the decision a few days ago to use #RubyOnRails for this instead of #django, my goto techstack.

I did this because for many years, I've been wanting to learn RoR, but never found a project to build in it.
