Nothing really fancy like other people here. I'm making an admin template based on bootstrap. It's my first attempt at it and I plan to sell it on wrapbootstrap/themeforest (if they find it good enough for their marketplace). http://i.imgur.com/Q12ACJu.png http://i.imgur.com/7gqyQiN.png http://i.imgur.com/sEVu6lG.png

Love the minimalist flat design

I'm working on a web-app which starts like a feature-rich to-do list app, but shifts the focus towards planning out larger life goals, and tracking progress: http://imgur.com/a/tSPHP In particular this week, I've been working on solidifying the quantification side of the app (see the first two screenshots) - i.e. making day-to-day productivity (and lack of productivity!) towards big goals something that's measurable…

I've been playing around with this concept for a couple of years (never having executed) and was expecting to be disappointed but this is very thoughtfully executed. I only wish this was open source :)

Highschooler here building a reddit bot that can be summoned to create posters, tshirts, mugs, mousepads, etc from images and comments posted on reddit. It's around 70% done. The hard parts: creating the posters from comments (imagemagick) and creating a product page (zazzle api) are both done. Now i'm just working on getting a rabbitmq cluster up and running so that it can process multiple comments at once. Also wor…

This is super awesome. That's a great idea and your code (what's in the screenshot at least) looks nice as well.

Thanks! I've been working on this on and off for the last couple of weeks and getting more ideas and feedback before releasing an initial version.

Also here's a better screenshot of what a poster might look like: http://imgur.com/YMGwlCo

I'm writing an iPad app for Mediabrowser 3 (mediabrowser3.com) with another developer. Mediabrowser is in the same space as Plex and XBMC. If everything goes well we plan on launching later this month. http://i.imgur.com/xCyfnjt.png http://i.imgur.com/RNAUaNN.jpg http://i.imgur.com/n3j11jI.png http://i.imgur.com/mA4JTNu.png We have invested a lot of time and effort into making the app fast . Our mantra from the very…

Really cool, I love the UI. As a Plex user I look forward to some alternatives and competition. I will certainly download this app

http://imgur.com/a/qryZL The CRM webapp I'm working on with the basic features I think such a system should have : - Customers, suppliers and leads management. - Calendar - Tasks (billable time tracking) - Opportunities, Quotes, invoices, credit notes and purchases - Expenses (rebillable) - Products and services with inventory and moving average costs - reporting - customer dedicated page

do you have a blog or sth on the detail of making this web app? I would love to follow.

I should definitely open a blog detailing the progress on the webapp. It's just I never felt having the writing skills to do it. But these kind of skills do not come without practicing, so I will surely go ahead and see ...

Working on a agile task tracker with some friends (similar to trello, but more dev oriented): http://imgur.com/a/4PF4z . (written with spring mvc for the server side, angularjs for the client side, use websocket/socks.js). Will be available as a open source project.

nice, please provide github link we could bookmark...

Hi, it will be available at https://github.com/digitalfondue/ in a few months.

Added a set of questions that customers can answer after starting their Candy Japan subscription. Hopefully this will let me understand them better and help with setting the tone in the way I write, possibly influence product choices and help with marketing. http://i.imgur.com/3wNZrSN.png It's amazing what a nice bunch my customers are. Out of 500 subscribers already 70 have volunteered their time to answer the quest…

As soon as my economy clears up i gonna subscribe.

how long did it take you to make it? any customers yet? good luck

I started just over half a year ago. In terms of real customers (i.e. excluding friends), I've had over a hundred people start the trial, but the drop-off rate is very high at the moment, and only a small handful have converted to paying. I'm iterating the product based on user feedback at the moment, until I'm confident it's complete enough to really push more traffic to through a proper marketing effort.

I can imagine, my need for it as a personal tool was strong enough that I just couldn't resists building it haha, it evolved quite a bit further than I expected though.

Could I ask why you'd have hoped for open source? If it's any consolation, I'm making the API completely open, and I'd have no problem with custom clients. In fact, I may even consider open-sourcing the default web-app client. But as for running it as a SaaS rather than distributing the whole thing as open source, I feel like the whole project will have a brighter future if it's set up in a sustainable way like this, and subscription fees can be invested back into the product, towards marketing, development, scaling etc.
