Building

Thought of making a custom domain email for https://t.co/YP9OMVBDFi

Which email hosting should I go for? Comment the best ones.

I have built something and I'm terrified to show it.
Be gentle with me.

If you hate it, lie and say it's cool.

was building https://t.co/YP9OMVBDFi since few days and I do say that journey gave very tough competition.

Been confused between these two:

1. Add a waitlist in the landing page to see the response?

or

2. Start directly with signups?

Most teams don't need 100+ metrics. They need clarity. I am building something that focuses on traffic, behaviour, geography and engagement with our overwhelm.

Simplicity > dashboard chaos.

[Het Hirani @hethirani07]

Started building a lightweight web analytics dashboard because existing tools felt heavy and noisy.

Goal: Simplicity

Excited to share the journey over the next few days.

I didn't feel it at first, but now I think something's UP!

Solo dev life is like juggling flaming torches on unicycle, React, APIs, DBs while your UI shines but loads slower than a 90s Geocities page. 500 API errors just because you forget to handle Null values. CORS issues at 2 AM?

Tip: Build one feature at a time.

#SoloDevStruggle

[Het Hirani @hethirani07]

Working with RSL and not checking for role privileges can be a real stress. It may cut your brain into 4 pieces or may be more.

You are working on that one thing and see a dead-end, that's exactly when you take a break.

Frequent breaks don't mean laziness

[Het Hirani @hethirani07]

@iravikhatri92 True!

Spent one week building and testing. Then Monday hit and realized it was not correct way. Instead of leaving, I will restart.

When you're building an API, use rate limiting and throttling—unless you're cool with your server getting absolutely wrecked by someone firing off 10,000 requests a minute like it’s a DDoS competition. Few devs skip this, then act shocked. What did you think was gonna happen?

The data was getting appended into the DB from the very first try but the reason why I couldn't see it was; I selected the options into my table views to see only 50 rows at a time.

IT'S NOT THE CODE EVERYTIME!!

[Het Hirani @hethirani07]

My data was not getting appended into the DB. I could see only 50 rows. I checked every api endpoint, every line of code, copy paste the Db connection pool. After 36 minutes of stress, I spot the issue.

Is it just me or anyone else is also looking for a good alternative of GA4?
