> you have to visit a notary to found

Why is that even necessary in the first place? Thats what people hate about bureaucracy. Why can't we just submit a form somewhere from home and someone looks over it from a queue. In the meantime you are allowed to start your business already. Bad process here. No process is 100% times better. An async one with forgiveness is getting you 80% there.

https://workplacify.com/ - an open source desk booking software. Can be self-hosted.

There is some small improvements to make but I want to focus on onboarding via a sandbox environment first next month.

Show HN: Open-source desk reservation software

igeligel_dev — Mon, 24 Mar 2025 15:09:35 +0000

Hey, built a desk reservation software and just wanted to share. Maybe someone finds it useful. I initially built this for my partner's company but in the end they did not start using it.

GitHub: https://github.com/igeligel/workplacify - You can self-host as well.

Happy to hear any feedback!

Multiple things

* An open-source desk scheduling solution: https://workplacify.com/ (GitHub: https://github.com/igeligel/workplacify)

* A bit passively: https://sheetsinterview.com/ - Hackerrank for Excel/Google sheets (I need to add some more task templates, hopefully with AI)

* A Chakra UI v3 component library for SaaS

I am working on Stripe Tax, but do not know Lemon Squeezy so well yet. But something Lemon Squeezy does different are the following: the KYC works different and is more restrictive. One of the differences to Stripe considering we still give you as a merchant the responsibility to be tax-compliant after all (you need to add tax registrations into stripe explicitly). Also think about maybe fraudulent cases, LS must be much more restrictive otherwise their payment provider is blocking them.

One thing which is weird about tax is physical presences in some cases. In some countries, you actually might need a representative to file your taxes. Plus you need to learn how to register in those countries and how to file taxes.

There are probably more things that you need to look up, but that’s what I remember.

We have introduced flat fee pricing recently: https://stripe.com/tax/pricing

MoR for marketplaces basically means merchant of record for Stripe Connect and you, as the platform, take the tax liability via the MoR functionality automatically for your sellers (connected accounts), right?

Mind sending me an email at kevinpeters at stripe dot com? Would love to hear about the use case.

All these comments ask for comparisons. It might be worth creating some alternative pages like podia do [1]. It could be helpful for your growth.

Seems like a cool project!

This looks nice and similar to toucan [1]. I have built something similar but a bit different for the web [2]. Happy, to share the code in a non-so-permissive license with you if you plan to build out web support.

What do you want to achieve?

Some tools:

* Google Search Console [1] honestly * ahref's free version is also quite powerful * KeywordsEverywhere [2] is also pretty great

Free tools work great for traffic. What’s the best way to convert users into paying users after?

I have tried a lot of things for my side project like limited generations of the output and then putting a signup requirement if you want to use the tool more often but people are simply not converting to the main solution.

Wondering why they do not use GitHub discussions. Found it quite great to use. Also costs less to maintain raw money-wise.

Any negative opinions around GitHub discussions?

Lots of rough spots. Especially the UI is not great right now but I also could not find a lot of traction so far.

Also: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sheetshortcut/fnbb...

An extension to show shortcuts as a popup for google sheets or excel 365. Never really polished it or created a landing page around it.

igeligel_dev — Sat, 12 Aug 2023 15:50:16 +0000

Love tRPC. I have built two side projects [1][2] now with it and its just so smooth. When I introduced the tool to some other people I worked with, they were amazed on how fast it is. Usually it takes some time to create frontend schemas from backend endpoints but tRPC is just so fast.

Thanks to the creator. Literally made me a more efficient developer!
