There's a LOT of marketing channels to try out before giving up.

Hey parent builders πŸ‘‹ Have you ever tried to teach coding to your kids? πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘¦β€πŸ‘¦ My boys (8 & 10) already did some Scratch but they learn more about how to draw, animate & record sounds than the coding per se. 🏫 I'd like to try something else, any idea?

Our product is about to be released, open for the public, and we will switch for a few weeks in full marketing mode. Definitely out of my comfort zone, I feel a bit nervous about it 😬 #buildinpublic

@benvp_ well @benvp_ I'm such a perfectionist that I still wanted to earn a few more perf points. I couldn't help πŸ˜… so I: - created a new landing.js bundle (no hook, no jquery) - deferred 3rd party scripts (DOMContentLoaded + extra 5s delay) - lazy-load image & iframe with lazysizes

Made the mobile performance score go up to 77 by wrapping some 3rd party script snippets into DOMContentLoaded callbacks

PageSpeed is hard! I manage to get almost a perfect score on the desktop, but on mobile, it complains about 2sec wasted for unused JS πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I think I'll just live with it, I guess it shouldn't hurt SEO. How are your insights? #buildinpublic

I'm excited to share with you what the landing page of @readable will look like later this week! ✨ About 4 days of work on this page: @missagla in Figma and me in VSCode :) πŸ‘« This is a huge milestone as readable will then be open to the public! 🌍 #buildinpublic

I asked ChatGPT to improve our landing copywriting, with a "catchy tone"! πŸ€– I can tell you that with this shiny and top-notch tool, we got you covered! (we also have your back!) πŸ”₯ Let's take it to the next level πŸš€ Bingo-bullshit is only a prompt away 🫠 #buildinpublic

Are you no-code or know-code? Maybe both? I tried to get into no-code with Retool to quickly pull out a back-office UI, but as I started using it, I realized that no-code was a new skill set to grow, and that I would be faster with the skills I already master: code. And you?

I'd like to add a few CSS animations on my landing page, that would be triggered by scrolling. Does it require Javascript? Does Tailwind offer anything to achieve this?
