I Shared Braindump With the World
Yesterday I wrote about my new app called braindump that I have been working on. Today I added a couple new features and decided to share it on Hacker News. I was only expecting a few people to check it out, and I have been thrilled with the response and feedback.
- 259 Stars on GitHub
- 89 Points on HN
- 192 New users on braindump.pw
- Front Page!
This is my first “real” project, and also my first time sharing a project like this on HN. In hindsight I probably could have waited a bit to share it with the whole world since it is still in the early stages of development. However, I could not be happier with the response. Thank you to everyone who looked at it, I hope you will continue to use my little app and provide feedback.
Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.
