Today I worked on fixing a bug for an hour and half, and still haven't fixed it 😍. Hopefully will smash it out next time, am getting close... #buildinpublic

I've been simplifying and cleaning up the layout of the calendar (top: old, bottom: new). It's been a bit tedious refactoring this open source calendar to a more suitable visual style - but we're getting there. #buildinpublic

Made some progress on coding my dashboard, now it properly sorts existing and past events. #buildinpublic

I'm a bit closer to completing the design i posted a couple days ago. Now I need to fix the dashboard so it properly categorises past and future holidays. #buildinpublic

Worked on homepage landing page today. The design is templated, the copy is inaccurate and AI-written and the images are ripped straight off unsplash without much thought - but I just want to crack something out quickly for SEO and revisit this when I have a bit more brain space. #buildinpublic

Redesigned my dashboard UI today in Figma (above is before, below is after), haven't coded this yet but will get to it. The idea is like, when you create a new holiday, it searches unsplash for the location e.g. Porto and uses that as the image which the user can then change. #buildinpublic

Deployed my app to the web, redesigned the navbar, google auth now works on the web. #buildinpublic

Long time since my last post, i got bored of my previous projects. Now I'm building a multi-user itinerary making app for planning holidays. Previously I've been planning holidays in Google Sheets, but I just want something a bit more custom. #buildinpublic

Managed to do some building today after work despite being quite tired. Shipped a new version of the new dashboard design, doesn't quite look the same but at least I can start polishing it now ✨ #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 09/03/2025

Did some more explorations on the dashboard design. I'm hoping to get it to a point where it just feels *right* #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 08/03/2025

Managed to upload my app to testflight which is good. Means im this much closer to an app store release #buildinpublic

Looks pretty ordinary, but i added some doughnut charts which show you your progress on reaching your macros. I also added a simple tool which calculates your macros based on height, weight, activity level etc. #buildinpublic

Another day of working on my app, because this ones so much simpler than my last attempt, its like way easier to progress. Today i updated to the new version of capacitor and fixed some bugs with the header. I want to redesign the dashboard. Its too detailed, need to simplify. #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 02/03/2025

Hopped into Figma and did one more iteration on my app's UI, much happier with it #buildinpublic

Today I set up a proxy server because the API I'm using needs it for security #buildinpublic

Trying to improve my apps UI. Taking it into Figma to try wireframe and rejig it a bit. #buildinpublic

I gave up on my old idea, after more market research I realised that meal planning app's/recipe keepers are a saturated field. Instead, I'm creating a much simpler idea - a simple daily nutrition tracker for meeting for protein/calorie goals. Today I finished a proof of concept. #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

My app is starting to reach the point where the proof of concept version is done - as in theres a somewhat working product with minimal features. Now I’m heading back to design and user research mode to try uncover whats the best layout and what features to prioritise. #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Working on more unsexy stuff today. Refactoring all my editable lists to be one component, so that the logic can be consistent between all 3 of them. I think this will help with UX consistency, so that the user can expect all lists on the app to behave the same. #buildinpublic

Indi S @inditheperson.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

I've decided to change my strategy a bit for the first release. I'm cutting one of the features and going to focus on making the 3 core features - recipe management, schedule management and shopping list management - have the best possible UX I can manage. So a lot of polishing #buildinpublic

I don’t know about others but i would never pay for a saas boilerplate, especially when you can just make your own by forking a bunch of repos. They never use the your exact tech stack & often have useless stuff. #buildinpublic Open source landing page template I like: play-tailwind.tailgrids.com

Bluesky is a demonstration of that principle. We’re betting that by having an open ecosystem around online social graph & connections, an entire world of innovators and inventors can create many more interesting and wonderful experiences than the dystopian attention economy extractors of the 2010s.

Building my first ever app - a meal planning app in which you can complete questionnaires then have a meal plan which meets your unique criteria! Read about it here: medium.com/@indisofyar/... #buildinpublic #indiehacking #mealplanning #recipe

Building a meal planning app — Phase One

I’ve decided to make a meal planning app. This comes after using a bunch of different ones and deciding they aren’t quite right for me.

It's a nice refresher to see art on my timeline and not just hate, irrelevant posts and bullshit
