ronbeltran — Thu, 21 Dec 2017 13:56:43 +0000

I have been developing https://useragentinfo.co/ as a side project. It's a simple device, browser and OS detection. Currently it's running in a single server setup over linode. By Jan2018 I'll be migrating it to AWS Elastic Beanstalk for stability. This will be my weekend timesink.

Last year around November(2016) I finally had the time to build my first mobile app. My goals are: to learn React Native and build a mobile app and publish it to Google Play. At my previous work I'm pretty much knowledgeable in integrating CRMs (ie.Salesforce, SugarCRM and Highrise.) into Gmail via chrome extension so building API backend wont be a problem. I noticed at that time that only Highrise CRM has no official Anroid/Ios app offering so I decided to implement it myself. Initially I implemented highrise tasks feature and figure out later what the users need via feedback. I completed the app within a month uploaded it to Google Play[0] and built a simple website[1] for it. Being a Highrise user who opt in for their new products announcement, one moring around December (2016) I got an email from Highrise announcing their official mobile apps for android and iOS. So that was it. I had no chance of competing with the official apps. I got around 5 install on Google Play which already had uninstalled my app.

Expenses:

$10 for the domain

$25 for Google Play Developer Fee

around $20 for few months api backend hosting (Digital Ocean $5/month) then I migrated the code and hosted to free Heroku plan to save cost.

I can also do this, which is harmful.

It would be more useful if we can filter the list by Stars, License, Language, Created, Updated.

ronbeltran — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 15:20:58 +0000

What advice can you give to potential founders who will be pitching on events like StartupWeekend,etc.? For us who attended, after someone pitched, random people approached him/her and wants to be on the group. Is it right to just say sorry that you're not accepting potential co-founders with random people?

I also built mine with same version of jekyll that github is using since I want to host my site in github pages however the build is broken when I commit a post that has {% raw %} tag. So I cant write a post with that tag anymore.

I couldn't find the badge for "negative code". They should give it the highest point.
