#204I want to do a side project but not have web development be part of it. Any ideas?
Re: Ask HN: What (side-)project are you working on?
#205We created https://www.getwelder.com/ as side project. Turn into main project and then back to side project haha. Great for recording content (interviews) remotely easily & in high-quality.
This pic: https://assets.website-files.com/5e93b09565892b4fad16784a/5f... Drives the point home! Would love to try it, as I've recorded a podcast with 13 episodes before: https://chdaniel.com/podcast What made you turn this from side -> main -> side project? What are you working on now, specifically, on Welder?
Happy to hear that Welder seems meaningful for you. You should definitely give it a try.
Btw thanks for letting me know what convinced you, we are actually in the process of updating the LP and this is valuable feedback.
So when covid thing happened we started on a few side projects as we though it's a great opportunity to build something that will help people in current situation.
We created MVP of app for therapists to do remote sessions, system for creative people to share their thoughts, Slack bot for devs to streamline their workflow and Welder.
Welder took of the most in our validation phase.
We decide to jump full time into it straight away as the demand was big. Few months in we already had paying customers, but the growth was not as fast as we needed.
We started thinking about VC funding, but finally it didn't feel right, we loved the product, but not as much. We didn't feel like it's the next unicorn. We would be lying to the VCs and we didn't want to.
So after 8 months we decided to put it back on side track as we had two options
1) VC capital and boost the generalistic tool as hell > Nope 2) Finding a niche, stick with it, understand it and deliver solution that is different enough from other generalistic competitors who raised (we didn't love it enough and we didn't feel big enough differentiator is there).
We actualy share a lot of this on our YT channel if you are interested https://www.youtube.com/c/CrazyMonkeys/
Hope this is helpful for you!

#206Earlier quoted context omitted.
Awesome! I'm just starting with a clear niche and solving my own problems. Where many of my friends and myself are in bilingual relationships that have been trying to learn our partner's languages. In the US, 15% of new marriages are multi-ethnic, so that's pretty large already. I think people are surprised how common it is. And it easily pique's people's interests who are in the situation versus another generic lang…
I like the idea of learning a language with a spouse or partner, how about the usecase where neither person is a native speaker of the language being learned?

#209It checks your website for the kind of things that get missed when you go from dev to production or can go wrong later - expired domains and SSL certs, broken links, robot options blocking search engine crawlers, etc. Adding more checks all the time and always keen to hear suggestions.

#210It's a self-hosted app for digital sales and newsletters. I can upload files, sell them, send broadcast/drip emails, handle bounces/spam so far. Still a work in progress.
