Indie hacker. Currently building https://www.chatbot-chronicles.com/, a browser extension to search chat histories across different providers.
My Chrome extension received the Featured badge yesterday. Let's see if will have any positive impact on organic impressions & installs. At the very least now two screenshots are displayed side-by-side, so there's more things to try with the store listing itself. #buildinpublic

There's also dark mode variant for it... but I'm not super stoked about it. There's something disturbing me about the colors/contrasts, but it's good enough for now to not spend any further time on it.

Started working on the settings page for Chatbot Chronicles to allow managing the auto-detected assistant connections. Still need to implement all the actions & modals, but I'm pretty satisfied with how it's looking. #buildinpublic

I know... I promised to not write a single line of code. But I couldn't resist adding Claude support to Chatbot Chronicles. So now I need to pretend, I did it for "marketing" reasons. #buildinpublic

I was trying to clean up some CSS yesterday and in doing so I ended up removing all of it for a moment. And.. I kind of liked the e-ink vibe that remained for the UI. #buildinpublic #uidesign

For the Chrome Web Store, I'm thinking of creating promotional screenshots similar to this one. Yay or nay? #buildinpublic

This is my very first Reddit ad - "Search that doesn't suck!". Targeting law-adjacent people with this, as I think they may be the most annoyed with searching through past chatbot convos. But I'm essentially just groping in the dark. #buildinpublic

This approach keeps Maud templates clean, and allows Alpine to easily transition between valid states (for more complex components).

I think... I've figured out a decent workflow for Maud+Alpine+Tailwind! The trick is to make use of user-defined components in Tailwind, with different variations configured via data-attributes. #buildinpublic #webdev #rust

Used GoAccess to analyze the access logs of my landing page. It's mostly bots currently, but what's interesting are all the files they try to request. Looking for weak wordpress installations, and secrets left exposed accidentally. #buildinpublic #webdev

It's important to take a break from the grind every once in a while, and obtain some new ideas in the fresh air. #buildinpublic

Yesterday I was brainstorming the design & structure of the on-boarding page (with Claude). Still very much in exploratory phase, but I think the embedded log-in form is the way to go (on the left). #buildinpublic #webdesign

Stayed up a bit late tackling all the issues that Chrome and manifest V3 presented, but now everything works! 🎉
And Firefox container tabs (contextIdentity) support is stripped out of Chrome build, so no more errors there either. #buildinpublic #indiehacker

And Perplexity support for Chatbot Chronicles is done! The APIs that Perplexity has scream ship-fast-care-later, and they also gives off a lot of vibe-coding vibes. But it works, and they've got a massive valuation, so who am I to criticize... #buildinpublic #indiehacker

Didn't make much progress on Chatbot Chronicles extension today, just fixed a few small bugs. Mostly procrastinated by vibe-coding a screenshot framing tool for myself. Available on screenshot.chatbot-c... if anyone else finds it useful. #buildinpublic #indiehacker #digitalmarketing

Spent a good two evenings on tweaking the logic that truncates the context around matched search terms. I'm sufficiently happy with it now, so I can show off a screenshot for search results. #buildinpublic #indiehacker

Hot tip for taking screenshots of webpages (or parts of them): Open developer tools, right click on the element you want a picture of and select "screenshot node". Works in Firefox & Chrome.
Here's me doing a quick open-graph image for my project using this method.

With Claude as my graphics designer, I made decent progress on the UI for Chatbot Chronicles extension. The popup defaults to showing recent conversations across all supported chatbots. Search also works, but still needs some tweaks. #buildinpublic #indiehacker
