... and the bits that do feel like an N+1 problem, those are just highlighting the next set of pain points that need a little more TLC to smooth them out. #buildinpublic

I am likely to change my mind by lunchtime so please take with a pinch of salt.

The downside of asking a question we're all asking ourselves. From the blog perspective I'm thinking of feature releases, how-to's, case studies on the brand side (keep to the facts), and on the personal side, the hints and tips, direction I'm going, why, influences etc (opinion)

and how do you decide what content gets posted on the product blog vs the personal blog? I'm assuming the posts on my personal blog would still resonate better with the audience than a brand post due to a greater sense of personal connection, but I'm sure there is a time and place for both

I think this question arises at multiple points. I have the same question from the perspective of blog articles i.e. I usually start with blogs via my personal blog (so the content still lives even if the project dies), but at what point do you create / post from the product blog...

That might be an interesting one to A/B test - a week or two liking my own posts vs a week or two where... (I don't want to say not-liking otherwise they wouldn't be posted in the first place 🤔)... you know what I mean!

I typically use Tailwind Plus (formerly TailwindUI), but my buildwithscaffold.com project is open-source and Tailwind Plus doesn't allow redistribution, which ruled it out here. Preline UI does allow redistribution provided you stick with the open-source components and don't include any pro ones.

I wrote up how I added myself to indiedevuse.com using Docker (no local pnpm install needed). If you think it would be useful to others, feel free to lift the Dockerfile or ping me for a PR. chrisshennan.com/blog/adding-...

Done - PR submitted. I suspect I'll submit another one at some point to tweak the bio - I can never write one I like 🤦‍♂️

That's all Tailwind CSS and Preline UI. My involvement is almost entirely reduced to copy and paste, which is actually a good thing as I have no FE skills.

Snap! It must be the season

Also, have you though about if/how you could use the "Tools and Technologies"? Tag-like pages come to mind i.e. click on Docker and then it shows indie's who make use of that particular tool. Potential for links to related resources etc.

I like this project, especially the open-source aspect i.e. not having to curate all the indie profiles yourself. Do you have any concerns about lots of incoming PR's i.e. you've built up a bunch of profiles and add new option, like multiple social media links? That could result in lots of updates
