Its not that they're difficult - its that they're time consuming and delay shipping features.

Thanks for your comments! I agree, I need to add some educational info to the site ASAP. I actually posted a show hn earlier that got about no response, even though it had a lengthy explanation. I obviously assumed some elements were obviou

Agreed - I can't believe I forgot to make one for myself (embarrassing) - will be adding one later this evening. I also agree I need to add more information. The javascript isn't redirecting at all though - just dynamically loading the page

The idea is, you'd double click to start creating elements, and design your error page, then save. It'll give you a script tag to insert on your static error page et voila.

the site is meant to be beyond easy to try out and register for, with the lowest barrier to entry possible. But I understand the problem with not highlighting features initially. That said, if you do register, you can click your email accou

Thats not a real error page - its just a test showing the script tag implemented and loading the error page properly.

Yup, the idea is you create a page on 404engine, and then drop a script tag on your static error page. When the error page is called, it loads the page you created on 404engine dynamically. Tracks requests etc. And it alerts you if the page

Exactly, the idea is with a simple script tag, you can set it up super fast, and manage it from 404engine

The UI looks good - but its not even remotely intuitive. I had to read your entire post to figure out what the right side bar is. Its very difficult to just focus on the main content (which is what the user should actually care about). Also

As a professional UX guy, here are my two cents: Do it : repeat. If the best chance for practice you have, is on personal projects - so be it. Find sites for inspiration. Design is ALWAYS changing. Things you're just getting sick of now (ch
