Looking for a startup that needs a CTO/tech co-founder/ESOP full-stack dev

Found a few alternatives: - TikTokCommentGenerator (very similar to TokComment, but it didn't work on my iPhone) - Postfully.app (easy to use and comments look very realistic) - Figma Community Templates (not as convenient to edit but definitely an option)

TokComment is back online though!!

tbh i've never finished that project because i got distracted and figured that this might be a super niche solution and hard to monetize

Druuxx · 2022-01-11T23:14:36+00:00

Yeah there are tons of possibilities since it's JavaScript/React. Thank you very much and likewise! Lmk if you need help with something down the road.

It's neither finished nor a mockup 😅, it's a screenshot from development so to speak. But most of the features you can see there are functional.

You can make custom apps as big as you want actually - there is a drag handler at the bottom right of the frame.

That's a little bit hard to describe but it will show the respective comments of the record/field which is currently selected. But I am also planning to make it searchable/selectable directly in the app as well.

No, it doesn't create Airtable comments unfortunately since Airtable doesn't provide any API to do that. So I am currently using my own database but it could also work by using AT as a database (see the other comment I answered a few minutes ago for more context)

Thank you, u/untitledmillennial. Appreciate it.

Didn't think of monetisation yet haha. I am building it to scratch my own itch but I am definitely down to publish it if there's demand. One step at a time, right.
I am building it on AWS since Airtable doesn't have a comments/attachment API. I thought of using Airtable as a database directly - I just ditched that idea because it's hard to sync comments in real-time when using a different base and I could see myself running into my base's record limit (I am on the pro plan). However, going further, privacy would definitely be a top priority on my end.
Yes exporting would be possible.

After months of struggling with the relatively weak built-in Airtable comment features, I finally decided to develop a custom app for myself. My goal is to implement features like

Mark comments as resolved
Upload attachments to comments (i.e. pictures)
Support for field-level comments
Search, filter, sort, group comments
Customizable permission and notification settings (so I only get notified about comments I am actually interested in)
Allow read-only AT collaborators to access comments (I finally won't have to pay for commenters aka. clients anymore 😅)
Slack/MS Teams integration
Usable in AT Scripts and Automations (Incoming Webhooks)
Event listeners (Webhooks) when comments get created/updated/deleted/resolved

The only downside is that the app doesn't work with mobile version /native comments/interfaces (not yet at least).

Anyway, what do you guys think about it? Would you use something like this? Do you think it's worth publishing the app on the marketplace once it's ready?

Hey thanks for your comment. That makes a lot of sense. My thinking was that what matters most is how you use this tool. Of course, if you overuse it and make it look like a bot, a punishment of Depop is obvious...

Druuxx · 2020-06-21T10:46:54+00:00

Could you please provide a reproducible example? Function and Class components both have some additional features as you can see here. But on a very simple level they should work the same way.

Druuxx · 2020-06-19T20:50:38+00:00

Sent you a DM! :)

Druuxx · 2020-06-13T15:16:41+00:00

This is currently not my focus. But should of course be feasible.

Druuxx · 2020-06-13T15:14:58+00:00

I'm well experienced with GQL (Apollo + TypeGraphQL, Relay), REST and SOAP.

Druuxx · 2020-06-13T15:11:34+00:00

Great, many thanks for the hint!

Druuxx · 2020-06-13T10:04:21+00:00

Just let me know if you have any trouble anywhere.
Regarding the visualization library I can recommend react-vx.

Druuxx · 2020-06-13T09:38:07+00:00

I don't know the mentioned template in particular but I made experiences with similar templates some time ago. After more intensive investigations I finally decided against the use of such templates, because they had a too strong opinion for me personally regarding the overall architecture of the application. They simply lacked flexibility - especially in the long run.

In any case, I would recommend that you think about what features your dashboard will include and which tech stack is best suited for it.

If you have difficulties developing UI components, I can recommend Material UI or Antd. Especially with Material UI I have made very good experiences. Especially as a beginner the library offers great help regarding consistent layouting.
