I previously created Attendize, another popular open source ticketing platform. I sold it back in 2018, and unfortunately the new owners have abandoned it. So I decided to create a better alternative.
Overall it took me the lion's share of a year. Mostly working for a couple of hours in the evenings.
- swyx 2y agolovely! perhaps you'll be able to sell this one too and make it a hat trick! since you had a rare chance to rewrite a whole thing... what did you choose to do differently this time?
- dignite 2y agoI started writing Attendize about 11 years ago when I had very little professional experience. As a result, the code is quite terrible and difficult to customize and extend. With Hi.Events, I designed the API first, making it more robust and open to extension. One of the most frequent requests for Attendize was for more flexible ticketing options, such as ticket tiers and donation tickets. I've incorporated these features into Hi.Events, along with much more powerful attendee management and customization features.
- swyx 2y agoawesome. :) i should maybe mention that i organize https://ai.engineer https://ai.engineer, which used ti.to. tito worked well for us, very little complaints except that coupons were laborious to create and maybe it could have been easier to aggregate different stages of ticket between early bird/late bird/general admission for data analysis
