Nice! Is this your personal site or the scaffolding for a product?
basically coded a bot to update when to grab data, and then saves that into the db and displays on the frontend
just a personal site for now
i made a discord for some bootcamp people because brainstation shut down their private slack, so i'm gonna try turn it into a community site for them and make it less of a personal one
what kind of company are you the founder of?
Ohhh that's super interesting. So what would get pulled out of the community and put onto the site?
So my startup NUMI is a marketplace that connects startups with designers on subscription. We did YC in 2020
for now it can accept two channels, they are gonna be a help channel and then a showcase channel, where people can display their projects. i'm hoping it will help put eyes on their projects so they have metrics for resume's (my own projects included)
ohh very cool
maybe you could do a collaboration with grace or something?
Yeah maybe! We're actually building a totally new product that will help independent designers run + scale their businesses based on all we've learned from 3 years in the space
awesome! I hope it is a huge success
are the people with you the same from when you started the company?
Is that UX designers you're talking about?
Yes! It's for UX designers, product designers - really any kind of designer who is doing freelance / independent / studio / agency
It's been a long journey with a few different teams but the cofounders are the same. And the current core team has been working together for about 3 years+ now, have known each other for 7+ years. All founders. All designers. We're tight-knit 🙂
Ooh very nice!
Are you programming it all on localhost as a solo project? Are you using Git version control or anything else in a cloud development datastore? a
I am taking a look at the video on your localhost:300 dev. That looks super cool
I had a small team apply for YC that were trying to take a position in a new TAM but she didn't raise. What is your business, are you VC backed, bootstrap funded or something else- how si that project going?
NUMI sounds like something I could use as a product consumer right now. Do you have trial or demo subscription or anything like that at the moment too?
If you're curious about trying NUMI out as a customer definitely book a call with my cofounder - we indeed offer a 7 day trial period for new subscriptions: https://numi.cal.com/harrison.telyan/design-chat-15min
Got it, I'm going arounnd sourcing gigs, that's why I was scrolling on the design buddies again. thanks.
sorry was eating dinner. I am developing on localhost, using git yeah. but deploying it on a hetzner server, https://devpad.net
