    I once built an app on their API for a hackday, and I had to film the demo because I could never get the devices to connect via a bump. It would happen like once every 5 tries. Jus…

    We actually looked at using MailChimp for this, but we didn't want to go outside of the TOS. So, we ended up merging the mail locally using Thunderbird and sending it from our pers…

    Pasting in the emails was going to make the post very long, but to summarize, we presented Meritful as a tool for students to build a positive web presence, as a tool for teachers …
