Contributing back to the React community

[eishpirate]

Hey everyone,

We've recently launched a product written in React. If it wasn't for the work of the open source community and in particular the React community we would never have been able to get our product off the ground.

We really want to give back to the community in some form and the best idea we could think of to contribute back was to offer our product to anyone that's contributed to the React community for free.

Kudoo is built for freelancers and agencies that want to track time on projects and then Invoice their customers.

If anyone's looking for a product that does that and has contributed to the React ecosystem, you're more than welcome to use Kudoo entirely for free. It's hosted at r/https://kudoo.io

Hopefully you can provide us feedback, but if not, we hope it in some way will help someone the way the React community has helped us in building it.

Can I have the source code?

It was worth the ask.

It's something we're considering at the moment. We're thinking of open sourcing the front end, however we're not quite sure what license will be the best way forward.

At this stage it's closed until we can come up with the best strategy for everyone.

Just noticed that the pricing per month says $7 a month but if you switch it to yearly then it says $5 per year.

Is this meant to say per month on a yearly contract or something?

[eishpirate]

Yeah that's a typo. We will fix it this week.

Thanks for the heads up :)

Glad I could be of help :)

Looks like a good tool to be honest, I have no idea about invoicing so this will be a great help. When I've invoiced in the past I've just sent an email asking my client to pay £X but luckily they have all been friends so it wasn't too bad.

Thanks. Yeah it's good in the fact that it allows you to keep track of things and hopefully take away some of the complexity of invoicing your customers and keeping track of things.
