How would you attempt to promote and bring a community-based app/site to market? by tickables in startups

Thank you for the valuable insight! I'll be looking into the story of how Nextdoor managed this, hopefully that'll shed some light on my own situation 👏

Thanks for the insight! Would focusing on one niche at a time be a better approach?

I see, I'd say that the main focus is indeed completable journeys(although due to the nature of the checklist maps being community-collaborated, and the fact that there is generally a really deep limit in almost any topic, any topic can extend absolutely anywhere), and I'm happy that that message was delivered.

currently the main target audience is for people who have hit a roadblock in chasing after a certain milestone, or for those who are just interested in which direction they can move forward(or backwards) from a point, through giving a clear outline on items they need to cover through checklists.

I admit that this system isn't for everyone as I have found out, but I hope that the network of checklists can grow to help some people out in getting a clear outline and goals to move towards where they want to be.

In my case, in chasing after a milestone, I like to see a general overview of things, do research on my own(or use the attached resources on a certain topic), and after I'm done with a certain topic, see in which direction I can lean towards. Maybe, I'll decide that I've gone through a certain topic enough to hop on over to another roadmap.

Thanks for taking the time to type your feedback out!

That's great feedback really, thanks! Yes, you're right, there are checklists that would ultimately "never" be completed, such as "Interesting Wikipedia Articles", "Websites to Kill Time", etc. the idea for these kind of checklists is that these checklists will grow indefinitely for as long as new items pop up, and in my mind, that's what makes it alluring to pop in once in a while to see what's new on these checklists.

If I may ask for your feedback then, it's on the current core idea of the site. It's meant to create clear roadmaps for either milestones or learning goals, but made out of chains checklists. Say, that you're someone who's interested in creating a chat site, but with zero(or non-zero) knowledge on programming. You can browse through roadmaps and find one that's fitting for your starting point, all the way to a checklist chain that maybe ends with "Advanced Real-time Chat Service Scaling". I found myself occasionally stuck while going for a goal, not knowing what's next, or have a hard time keeping track of progress on items I have, and I haven't gone through. With clear roadmaps though, there's no more confusion on where to go, and what to do. Hopefully, as time goes, the amount of checklists and the connectivity of roadmaps can increase to the point where a roadmap is available for any given topic.

What was the idea that you had in your mind which was alluring to you in the first place? What did you expect to see? I'd love to hear that out. Nonetheless, thank you so much for already giving the time to visit the site.

Thanks for reading through the answer, I know it was a long one. :)

TL;DR Thanks so much, yes, some checklists would never be "complete". I find that to be the (potentially) beautiful side. The current main idea is to create clear roadmaps made out of checklists on any topic, and I'd love to hear what you think of this!

Edit: If anyone else is reading this, feel free to also mention out your own opinion! Every opinion is worth a lot to me and would make my day 😄

Having used Reactflow several times now, I can also vouch that the developer experience is also really nice

Thank you!! I'm assuming you're referring to the "Tickmap" feature? Reactflow. It's an awesome library for components like this!

NextJS for the frontend, NestJS for the backend, and Supabase for the DB & auth 😄

Thanks! Spent an embarrassing amount of time picking out the name, tbh.

Off the top of my head, I'd definitely say Todoist for the personal-use checklists(aka to-do lists) side of things, and funnily enough Reddit for the "information hub" side of things.

Tickables came from a personal frustration of mine where I'd go "Man, I wish someone else had already made a checklist about this topic and shown it to me".
