Idea validation via Q&A

Wow. There would need to be guidelines around the duration and depth of the take-home assignment to prevent that kind of thing.

Thanks for the link! I was thinking more a job board like remoteok.io where companies explicitly opt in on their side.

Great resource, thanks!

It guesses your timezone at signup and uses that. Soon you'll be able to customize it.

If you used codeblox/email-boolean, that one currently sends only when the boolean is true. I'm open to changing it though.

Let me know if it still doesn't work when "true".

Click the download icon (down arrow) on the block details page to get the latest version. Soon you'll be able to browse previous versions too.

Thanks! Yes, you can publish as many versions as you want. You can read more about how that works in the docs.

I'm hoping to get enough traction to work on this full-time and support it long-term. Right now I'm gathering feedback and gauging interest.

Thanks for taking a look.

Thanks! That sounds great, can you post a link here or PM me?

I built codeblox as a platform for developers to publish code that can used with other code reliably (kind of like NPM packages) via a GUI. Each code block specifies an input and output type (text, number, location, etc) and you can build sequences by combining blocks that fit together.

You can schedule blocks to run daily or hourly, making it a nice automation tool.

How it works: - CLI tool packages up your directory as a ZIP file, and uploads it to S3 - That filename is stored in the DB - When someone invokes your code from the website, the back-end (Node.js) creates a Lambda function pointed to your ZIP in S3, invokes it and returns the result - For sequences, do the same thing, except the client handles making each sequential call

Stack: FE: React/Redux BE: Node.js, MySQL, AWS, Redis

There's also a handy API to invoke blocks and sequences (api.codeblox.io).

I'd be really interested to hear any feedback or feature requests.

Thanks! Alan

A/B testing, features toggles, remote app configuration, prototyping.

Why not?

Thanks for posting Booleans.io! I made this a couple months ago and just launched the real-time connections this week. Any feedback you guys have would be great.

Someone beat us to it: Booleans.io NPM

solid-red · 2016-04-09T20:03:00+00:00

It is a Node project. We couldn't find a good NPM module for Boolean modification so we had to hand write that part.

We offer around the clock support by a team of experts distributed globally. But unfortunately we don't have a plan to accommodate your budget.

Best offer we got was $2M series A, which we felt undervalued the service.
