What’s the ICP? Why would that ICP go out of their way and use you? for ex one end of the spectrum - there’s supabase and firebase users who will use the baked in solution or simply store it in the DB. More advanced users won’t have issues setting up R2, B2, S3, and any serious client, no offense, probably doesn’t want all of their files at the mercy of railway or a 14 year old

What about banking off your email sdk? What if you built a little platform around that, keep the open source approach but add a hosted layer on top of it such as durable sending, flagging emails for issues that cause you to get flagged for spam, calculate yourself a reputation score, rollout sending, analytics with a tracking pixel, ai generated emails based on a set of templates. I could see people paying for that

@irvinnofficial my shipment has been in customs for a little longer than what I was hoping for 😂 . I’ve heard more packages have been getting snagged recently

@zackkitzmiller I believe you're message requests are disabled for `everyone`, I hit you with a follow. Should work if you DM me first

2026: a dev agency ghosted a founder at week 9. $18k gone, nothing shipped.
We rebuilt in 5 days. First customer that weekend.

Shipped:
- Auth
- Stripe
- Supabase
- Email
- Vercel.

$2k flat. They owned every line.
Skip agencies. Get a builder with 10+ years.
Ship yours ->

@zackkitzmiller Not any MVP, but we’re very open to ideas and what you’d like us to build. If you'd like, we can hop on a call and discuss this more? https://t.co/o1KUDEkIM2

@maxktz @dominikkoch @elysiaJS I'd highly recommend oRPC nowadays - and hono as the base. Takes a few more lines to setup but man it's GOOD. It's OpenAPI compat and you can follow REST standards if you need to make it public to others

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@testingcatalog How is Google's bar so low this is considered good

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

Just won the first @10x_apps bounty 🙌 Thanks to the team for putting on the event, I’ve heard more will be coming soon

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@abhijitwt There's free services that do this. I used to use one for replit a few years ago

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@LogicalGiraffe @blakeandersonw exactly what makes it a good product 😂

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@leodev Have you used expo with codex? A massive issue I've found is that codex loves to design mobile apps as if they were web apps - I assume due to it being react

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@leodev @convex What about @instant_db ? I saw that beto from expo praised it and I've been looking into it. Seems like it has some of the benefits from supabase but actually a good product. I'd be using hono on Cloudflare Workers + that ecosystem combined with instantdb as a final stack

@abdullah_shxikh @10x_apps @EvanYadegari @timmymckeegan Congrats!

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@sav_theo @EvanYadegari 😉

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@itsajinkyaraj @madsf88 The above app was approved in 54 minutes

[Dawson @DawssonMonroe]

@sav_theo @EvanYadegari Experience with dealing with review 50+ times lol, I've started to learn their complaints
