Looks great, well done for launching it (and getting onto front page of HN!).
What I really like is when there's a video showing what it's like to use the product.
I launched my leave tracking app (https://leavetracker.app https://leavetracker.app) a couple of months ago and once I'm finally happy with the design I'll be making a video for it, I think it can really help with conversions.
I'm always impressed when one person alone builds a product and actually ships it. It's a very different journey to working in a team on a startup. Best of luck!
- drikerf 7y agoThanks! That makes sense. I'll def make a video/gif! The product has changed quite frequently so didn't want to redo it every other day :)!
- drewp 7y agoHow great would it be if you did redo it every other day, though? You'd automate the video publish pipeline, of course, and then it would be like a cross between a high-level UX test and a rehearsal for your pitch. You'd get really good at the workflows you demo, which would probably make the demo more impressive, and you'd be more likely to clean up any rough edges or annoyances that you come across repeatedly.
