Not related to the topic, but I first came across Thymer about (I want to say) 2 years ago when I looked for a todo.txt GUI. I found the blog they used to document building it: https://80daystartup.com/ https://80daystartup.com/
Somehow, this thing is still not available for testing yet. Not hating but isn’t this supposed to be the category where new solutions launch every single day? While I am still very much interested, I’ve lost any hope that this will become a real thing to try out any time soon.
- ukuina 2y agoIt is possible that life got in the way. Thymer did seem a great idea.
- wim 2y agoHah yes it took a while, thanks for following! When we started the blog we initially thought of building something very small, but along the way realized that the kind of thing we would really love using ourselves would be a much bigger project. It basically involved building a completely new editor from scratch, sync engine, adding multiplayer and end-to-end-encryption, and so on. It would definitely have been faster to take shortcuts and use many existing libs and frameworks around editors, UI and syncing, but then it wouldn't have been something meaningfully different I think, as you point out there's plenty of options in the space so why take the same approach. We're very much still working on it though and it's finally at the point where it's just some polish, so pretty sure next Q.
