🌟 Day 6 of 7 - Build Challenge with @loopsvariables

Today was a lighter day, but I made progress! I got the showcase page up and running 🎉 Tomorrow, I’ll focus on adding dedicated pages for different use cases and improving the overall look and feel of the site. Excited to see it all come together!

I wanted to play my sister in Connect 4. Every option wanted her to download an app and create an account. It got a little out of hand so I also have a Words with Friends-like game and did the same for Battleship.

So I built Arcadely: free browser games where multiplayer is just sending a link. No downloads, no signups, and games work offline (built for my subway commute).

It's live on Product Hunt today. Would love for you to check it out and tell me what breaks or if you have a game suggestion:

@MattCowlin Can you DM the app? Thanks!

@avgNoobDev @marclou If you are looking to maximize your value in the marketplace, which would give you more runway for your projects, finishing that year is likely to be your best investment.

@Shpigford I spent more time than I would like to admit dreaming of owning Optic. Hopefully, the new owner appreciates the hard work you put into it. Looking forward to seeing this new Dutch Auction website 😉

@T_Zahil @MarkKnd Haha, you are everywhere. As a horrible web designer and a halfway decent developer, this is S tier to me.

@0xPaulius How are people getting these 🔥 looking skins? I may need to start using just to level up my designs when working through projects.

🚀 Day 5 of 7 - Build Challenge with @loopsvariables

Spent a LOT of time wrestling with the limitations of the X API on a free account today, but I pushed through and built something exciting! 🎉 Now, anyone can Tweet @InstantDiagrams with a diagram description and use #instantdiagrams, and it will auto-generate a diagram for them.

I’m planning to use this feature to build a showcase page where users can see their creations in action.

@InstantDiagrams A user using a website with a load balancer to scale the load across multiple servers, and uses a MySQL database #instantdiagrams #architecture

🚀 Day 4 of 7 - Build Challenge with @loopsvariables

Today, I'm announcing my pivot! I ran into a stack of issues with my original project, so I switched gears and started building 📊 Instant Diagrams — a tool to instantly create diagrams from a description or image. I've been using the underlying markup to speed up my workflow, and it’s already been a huge help so decided to automate it with this project!

💡 What it does: Quickly create diagrams, then customize further by tweaking prompts or editing markup. It supports Mermaid markup for flowcharts and Diagrams Python library for architecture (Graphviz DOT is coming soon)!
