I didn't know Ruby (for Jekyll) or Go (for Hugo) and while you may not need to know them to get started, I didn't want the learning curve or bulky dependencies to cause friction in the workflow. Also, I just didn't like any of the standard templates and didn't want to think about how I would edit them to suit my needs.

I wonder if some explanatory texts, alongside usability improvements could help you get more users. I can’t tell if your website is useful since I know anything about DNA sequencing - but from a UX perspective there is room for some improvements.
I agree, it could definitely use a make over.

This looks really cool! Just added a reminder to check out in more detail when I get to a computer :) Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! We are having great fun building it and making it useful for others! Please reach out if you have any questions: https://discord.gg/WmcJgXt
Are exported projects cloud host agnostic?
A git script named wip-push that commits changes in my working copy with the message "WIP". A git script named wip-pop that undoes the head commit, leaving the changes in my working copy, only if the commit message is "WIP". I use these dozens of times every day. Also I've written my own logging library. Multiple times. Doesn't everybody?
Ahh, I’ve done something similar except I call mine “save” and “undo”. Basically I just define them as git subcommands so I just use “git save” to create a SAVEPOINT commit, and “git undo” to undo the last commit onto my working index.

I looked over your page, briefly through docs, couldn't find: what kind of code are the finishes webapps pushed out as? Are exported projects cloud host agnostic?
All of this talks to a stateless node backend [3] which talks external connections or data sources.
> Are exported projects cloud host agnostic?
Yes. Open-source and self-hosted. We run apps on Netlify (with functions), Serverless, Docker etc. We'll probably include a static build version which will allow to host a Lowdefy app as a static site. The docs is also just a Lowdefy app, so we can easily make it interactive [4] and autogenerate much it from a JSONSchema.

In 2013, I started https://webtorrent.io the first torrent client that runs in a web browser. It’s open source here: https://github.com/webtorrent I built it to make torrent technology more accessible to the masses. We’re still actively building it and we even have a slick desktop app that uses the same engine for streaming. WebTorrent also powers https://wormhole.app an end-to-end encrypted file sending service that…
I'm looking forward to a npm ads follow up. I feel like opinions have changed around money and open source.
I made https://CampAlert.live , a notification service for last minute camp site cancellations. It sends you an email and text message when we find a free spot of your choosing. Currently, it supports only Canadian campsites in BC, AB and National Parks. I've looked into previous tools but their services were all too expensive. They also didn't have the granularity I wanted in the options you could choose for campsit…
would be great if you had parks in Washington state.

This solves a huge problem for me, and is easily worth three times the amount I paid for it. Thank you!
Awesome, thanks! Let me know if you have any feedback/feature ideas.
Maybe a separate time line with just the cuts that you can fast forward through and see/hear if there's anything you still want.
Early 2017, I built Listen Notes [1] , so I can search podcast episodes by keywords and listen to individual podcast episodes without subscribing to the entire podcast. A few years ago, most podcast apps assume you wanted to subscribe to podcasts first then listen. Maybe I’m not a typical podcast listener. I don’t like subscribing to podcasts. I just want to listen to individual episodes then move on. Similar to cons…

Did you also write bsdiff [1] or is that someone with a similar name? [1] http://www.daemonology.net/bsdiff/
Yes, that was also me. A very long time ago -- I wrote it in 2003 when I was at university and I've barely touched it in the past 15 years.
>bsdiff runs in O((n+m) log n) time; on a 200MHz Pentium Pro, building a binary patch for a 4MB file takes about 90 seconds.
