It's a directory of over 230k open-source icons.
It still needs a lot of work. I launched it 2 months ago and then got busy with some client work.

48K backlinks???? 🥳
I don't even have 48... 😂
Did you submit to a lot of directories?
What gave the biggest boost to your backlink profile?

Right now, I'm building a site called IconZoo.com
It's a directory of over 230k open source icons.
I don't really have a plan with this site.

I wish someone would come up with an open (like Bluesky/mastadon) version of HN.
But the main part of HN is the people they already have. No new platform would be able to woo all those people over.

Have you tried Astro? It's a beauty when it comes to static content mixed with dynamic. It's amazing.
I start all my new projects with it. And it supports all popular frameworks and libraries.

Do you think all the effort is worth it? I've used Tanstack Query in the past and it was joyful!
What's the biggest benefit you think you'll get out of switching to Tanstack Start?

I recently saw one guy sell a course about how you can get rich by building no-code job boards. 😂🤷♂️

I'm not sure if I would ever do it but I like seeing people share their product's MRR.
It really inspires me because most of the products aren't "groundbreaking" or "industry shakers." A lot of them have enterprise-level, established competitors.
Seeing their numbers makes me feel it's possible.

A good coding session is all you need to get out of a slump.
Now just keep the momentum going. :)

we can put a hard cap on the number of users.

That's usually the case. Enterprises and established companies usually have really shitty APIs that are difficult to work with even though they have hundreds of developers.
Tiny 3 people teams on the other hand crank out easy-to-use APIs with clear examples. Big companies should learn from them!

Thanks a lot, Joel. You're awesome.
I love the idea of building Zod schemas for everything and exporting the types from that same file.
I'll try this structure in my projects.

Keep it up, mate! I'll be checking in... :)

When I first joined Twitter, it was already too late for me.
Bluesky seems like how Twitter should be and must have been back in the day!

I don't know. 5 hours of uninterrupted coding flow sounds more relaxing than almost anything else I can think of doing...
Hope you had fun! :)

Two questions:
What would be a good alternative you'd suggest? I don't have a lot of experience with Next.js or similar frameworks.
What is o11y?

It doesn't really matter in the long run. There are a lot of startup killing it with content marketing and SEO who use .app domain.
But in general, if I can get a .com, I would rather go with that. It's supposed to be easier for SEO in the beginning.
