I built https://joyful.gifts https://joyful.gifts a couple of years ago. Nice lunch money and was a good technical challenge. I did it to be able to call myself a full-stack software dev. Basically, get over my imposter syndrome.

Nice, interesting idea, how do you handle gift choices? Is there an option to screen the gifts beforehand?

  Yea - the customers get an email with the choice 15 days in advance. They don't get a list to pick from. Just one where they say yay/nay - if nay, then a new item gets pick and new email is generated.

But that seems to need human input, at least to buy and send the gift. Or did you manage to automate that?

  90% there - buy ya - I don't trust the recommendation engine to fly solo yet. Maybe if I can stop my day job and work on it 100% - but I am not there yet.
