I really like your design app's home page -- modern, inviting, disarming, and attractive. Did you build it? If so, can you talk a bit about what technologies you're using and the design process? If not, how did you go about deciding on a contractor to build it out for you? Thanks for sharing your story!

This is the 3rd big rebuild of the site. Even though the website uses the same tech stack as the electron app I decided to hire a sub contractor to build it, that way, my dev energy could stay concentrated on building features. I think we found each other on LinkedIn by chance. They reached out to me because I sounded human. Ha! At the time, the design was inspired by the gradients on the stripe website. I do most of my own illustrations using Sketch. The logo design is mine. My last name is Larson and my mother (Linda) used to sign her name with two big capital cursive L. The alliteration of Label LIVE and Linda Larson were fun… and as I tried to sketch the flow of a label through the printer I just stumbled on a cursive L that had invoked my own warm fuzzies. So here we are! The name choice was mostly looking at TLD name availability for the word “label” and .live appeared. That was pure luck.
