Show HN: I built a domain name marketplace for folks (like me) who hoard domains

#1
Problem: I (accidentally) hoard domains :')

1. I get excited about a new project 2. I buy a domain 3. I get busy, and the domain collects a thick layer of dust

I know I'm not alone in this, either

So, I had the idea of creating a simple and casual marketplace for folks like me to list their domains at a fair price with a nice community feel to free up these caged domains

It felt like a great project for me to pick up some new skills, so I got to it

All up, it took me about a month, and I built the whole thing live on Twitch

I've always sat on the design, marketing and front-end side of the fence, so this was my first attempt at making a 'full' web app

Here's the stack I used:

- SvelteKit (https://kit.svelte.dev/)

- Supabase (https://supabase.com/)

- Resend (https://resend.com/)

- ShadCN Svelte (https://www.shadcn-svelte.com/)

It was super fun to build, and as a beginner, I learnt so much

I leaned on AI quite heavily to help advance my speed of groking certain concepts within both SvelteKit & Supabase, and I blogged about the experience and my learnings here: https://aroreretini.dev/projects/dwarf/

Any feedback/criticism very much welcome, I've got a lot to learn :)

Nice work. I’d add domains but logging in only via x is a deal breaker.

Thank you!

Yeah, apologies—I should have implemented other auth early on but figured I could start with X given I was only going to tweet about it to my immediate circle...

One of these weekends I'll refactor in magic password and Google et al
