Nice app! I remember that an extremely similar product was Sunrise. It was a well crafted product and it was bought by Microsoft. The development has been since then discontinued, and functions were integrated into Outlook. Hope this won't happen to Routine. Nice work!
Earlier quoted context omitted.
The iOS app is native Swift. The desktop app is in Electron. But we've taken another approach for the Electron app not to become as slow as Slack or Notion. We know many people complain about that. To give just one example. The parser in our console has not been written manually in Javascript. Instead we wrote it in Ocaml ( https://ocaml.org/ ) and we generate the Javascript. This allows us to have a code that is mor…
Speed is not the problem with JS and Electron, it's the broken UX and expected behavior from a native app. I've installed it and before moving it to my app folder, I tried to run it (I always do this with new apps). A popup appeared with the title "A JavaScript error occurred in the main process" (weird behavior), I didn't read the content at first, so I closed it and reopened the app again (fast fingers reached cmd-…
Installed it on my work machine now. We use Google Calendar at work and I much more rather look it using your App :) It would be nice if I could connect my Apple-calendar with it as that's what I'm using personally. Ctrl+space short key is nice but canceling it with esc doesn't work for me at least but I have to open the app to get it closed. Also - I'd use it so much rather if it would be more independent from googl…
Apple Calendar is something we are obviously considering.
As for console which is hard to exit, we get that feedback all the time. Unfortunately, even though it looks trivial, it is actually not super simple to do. I suggest you re-hit CTRL+SPACE to hide it, it is the easiest way. Otherwise, you need to reput focus in the console and hit CTRL+ESC.
As for the dependence on the Google ecosystem, we understand but, as discussed through other comments on this post, we had to start somewhere. We will expand later but it just made sense to start on Google given that we are going after professionals and that there are 400M Google Workspace accounts.
I need this on Windows/Web
Edit: works pretty well as an app added inside of https://wavebox.io/
And YC are backing this? wassa matter? afraid to miss out on the next Slack?
Addicted to ticktick which does all of this methinks
So you're trying to compete with Google? And with a note-taking app (which is the developer equivalent of making an ashtray in pottery class)? And YC are backing this? wassa matter? afraid to miss out on the next Slack?
I'm curious, and mean no offense when I ask: when you and other startups cite usage at Telsa/Stripe/etc. do you sell directly to those organizations or is there some other threshold that makes you comfortable mentioning them.
I've seen similar on a lot of sites (sometimes direct competitors claiming use by the same large organization) and I often wonder if the company knows anything about it or if it's more a case of a handful of individuals (that happen to work at one of those companies) using the product of their own volition.
I'd be interested in anyone's thoughts here.
Best of luck with the launch and all future endeavors!
Awesome to see more people work on integrated productivity spaces! I work on something very similar at Life ( https://life.so ). Since you decided to include notes into your bundling as well (which I did not so far) I am curious: How do you expect people to switch their note-writing habits from Notion, Roam, etc. to your project? It seemed to me that the notes market is extremely competitive already. The design looks…
I would have appreciated a "We're not ready yet, sign up to be on our waiting list". I immediately unsubscribed.
