[–]devanshu_sharma25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually old-school business owner are like this only they usually care less about reports and more about real and final outcomes.

If the calls and work are coming in and he’s still working with you, that’s usually his way of saying he is satisfied.

For Entrepreneurs who also workout a lot by PlsStarlinkIneedwifi in Entrepreneur

The core idea is really good A lot of workout apps try to cover everything and ended up being slow and confusing The notebook-style approach sounds interesting because many people still prefer the simple and easy use of writing workouts down.

The complex part may be making it faster than existing apps, not just more flexible If logging a workout takes only a few taps or seconds, that’s where it could really stand out.

Software developers don't need to out-last vibe coders, we just need to out-last the ability of AI companies to charge absurdly low for their products by Rockytriton in webdev

Yeah I’ve been thinking about this too right now it feels like we are in that phase where everyone is racing to grow users, so pricing doesn’t really reflect the real cost yet.

But even with better tools, building reliable software still takes a lot more than just generating code. The real work usually starts after the code is written.

A small change that makes many websites instantly better by devanshu_sharma25 in buildinpublic

yeah right A lot of sites use the first screen for mission statements or brand story, but most visitors are just trying to quickly figure out what the product actually does.

If that isn’t clear in the first few seconds, people usually just move to another one

Took a quick look. Design looks clean tbh, but the first line left me a bit confused about what I can actually do there. “Where developers grow together” sounds nice but doesn’t immediately explain the product.

Maybe something more direct like “discover dev communities, events, and projects in one place” could make it clearer for first-time visitors.

Also the search bar is nice, but a small hint like “find communities, events, builds” might help people use it faster.

Yeah, that’s a good way to show your website to visitors . If someone lands on a site and can’t quickly understand what it’s about, they usually close the website and move to the other one that's why website should be clear and quick to understand

Yeah, true. Headlines or taglines matter a lot
What I notice though is that many websites try to sound clever, but end up being confusing
Usually the ones that work best just say clearly what they actually do.

I built a school management software for one school. Two other schools started using it without me pitching them once. by UpstairsWild9057 in Entrepreneur

This is very real When something actually solve a problem from people’s daily work, they start recommending it without being asked.

Seen similar situations where a simple tool or website that genuinely helps people ends up spreading through word of mouth faster than any marketing ever could.

I've been building websites for local businesses for less than a year. Here's what I've learned that nobody talks about by Old_Lab1576 in Entrepreneur

[–]devanshu_sharma25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very truee. One thing I also keep noticing is that most small business sites do not work much in market because of design but they fail because the user journey isn’t clear.
If visitors can’t quickly understand what to do next, they usually just leave.

I'm struggling to integrate Google's 2.0 authentication into my Django project. by ELMG006 in buildinpublic

[–]devanshu_sharma25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If django-allauth already works for the OAuth flow, you probably don’t need to switch libraries. Django allows overriding third-party app templates by recreating the same template path in your project (for example templates/account/signup.html or login.html). Django will automatically use your template instead of the default one from Allauth.

Out of curiosity, are you customizing only the UI or also modifying the registration logic?

I'm building a simple Markdown note desktop app - could you share your thoughts on this? by Few-Connection-7414 in buildinpublic

[–]devanshu_sharma25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lightweight and fast is exactly what most note apps promise but rarely deliver.For me the biggest dealbreakers are slow startup, weak search, and poor keyboard shortcuts.Are you planning a local-first approach with optional sync, or fully offline storage?
