I’ve been working on custom components in remake lately. It’s rough around the edges, but it’s finally starting to work! Still a lot to fix though.

When I’m not building online experiences, I’m busy creating spooky offline ones with my wife at our English academy.

Not sure if the kids enjoyed it more or we did. 🎃

Happy Halloween! 🎃👻 #buildinpublic

Working on the media library & Unsplash integration for remake. Now the grid lets you preview images even if they don’t fit in the box, with a nice horizontal or vertical animation.

Next step: getting custom components to work. 🤔 Once that's done, I can start accepting alpha users. 😱

Not every weekend has to be productive.
Sometimes the best thing to “build” is just a pumpkin with friends. 🎃

#buildinpublic

Slowly building remake, one publish button at a time.
Sneak peek of the new publishing flow. And yes, there's confetti. 🎉

Can't wait to open it up for early users soon.

What's your "confetti moment" when you ship something?

A month ago I could barely center a text in remake, now I can almost create a landing page. 🚀

Still, so many bugs, and UX issues to fix... 😅

Bizarre? 🤔 I’m not there yet, I guess. 😄 At this point I’m mostly creating useful solutions to things that have been bothering me. Like a charging station for the OralB electric toothbrush (my design).

I couldn’t crash it, but I think dark mode has some styling issues. Some texts are not readable.

They say there are three tough challenges in Computer Science:

1. naming things
2. cache invalidation
3. centering a div on a website

I made sure to implement the 3rd one first in remake. 🙌 #buildinpublic (not much else works yet 😅)

PS: #tailwind is great!

This weekend, I made my first-ever animation for my landing page to showcase how the website-building experience might look like. I was proud of it... Until the first review: "It's too simplistic and non-flashy."

True. Back to the drawing board, I guess. 😄 Not every day is a win.

It's crazy that in 2024 we still have to add CSS hacks to override certain styles. Looking at you Chrome autofill... 🙄
