@hans_dekker thanks Hans, really appreciate it. It's been a labor of love 🥰, and has kept me focused during these challenging times! 😅
@ngthatsme1 Incredicle work done in 10 months, you have set the bar on productivity too high , congrats on your launch
@owenfar1 @ngthatsme1 I would word it "web only". Desktop made me think there is a desktop app for Mac/PC and I'm guessing there is not?
@hungipham thanks Hung! Great suggestion. Do you have any recommendations on where to get some good sound effects? I agree a few more would be nice (with optional mute button of course)
Wow that's so cool, I made something similar for my own use last year (www.timer.getartemis.app) but yours is definitely more polished, good job. Looks like it's good validation for myself haha, nevertheless great to hear your story.
Any plans for an integration to Zapier? I would love to zap tasks to my list which is how I'm using Trello now, but i'm always looking for improvements!
@stephanie_mcdonald2 Hi Stephanie, I'll definitely keep that in mind! Thank you. Right now am focusing on the core Llama product, but Zapier or IFTTT integration would be interesting. I'm a heavy Trello user myself. All my monthly and weekly tasks are on Trello and then I use Llama to organise them in the present moment/today.
@ngthatsme1 Is there a way to move them out of Trello into Llama other than retyping?
@stephanie_mcdonald2 not at the moment, but will definitely give it some thought. Thanks for the feedback 🥰
@stephanie_mcdonald2 @ngthatsme1 I think bringing stuff in from other apps - RTM / Trello / todosit et al , is a MUST. Otherwise we'd just be duplicating work.
On a busy focussed day I may have 20 - 30 tasks - am I going to re type these from my todo app of choice into Llama ? No. That would be VERY unproductive indeed.
Congrats on teaching yourself to code - that is most impressive and the app is very sleek and polished. Definitely aesthetically pleasing :)
I'd also like to have the ability to edit items on the list.
Good start and keep up the good work.
@stephanie_mcdonald2 @stefan_ketola thanks for the thoughtful feedback. Yes I can see how the duplication of work would be contrary to what Llama is trying to help people achieve.
I've added integration and editing to the list of potential features to work on. Will create a public Trello board of features so folks can help shape the direction of Llama. Will loop back when that's done. Thanks again, that's really helpful.
@stefan_ketola hi Stefan, yes the US$9 is an early adopter special I'm doing as a Lifetime deal. This means you will have access to all Llama's features now, and all future features to be developed.
Wow, impressive story of you! Gooood!
I like task trackers so I will definitely try it.
Upvoted! Ans good luck!
Interesting product. Being an entrepreneur with a small team I need a simple task tracker. Is your product easier than Trello for ex?
HI @ngthatsme1. This is an awesome product, especially since you only just learned to code. I'm curious about your coding journey - do you have any recommendations or resources for people learning to code?
@mattslutzkin hey Matt, thank you!
I think my biggest recommendation would be to find a learning method that works for you eg I'm terrible at reading books, but great when it comes to video or audio.
I started with a Udemy course on html/css, and javascript - this was great because it provided some structural learning. And now I mostly watch coding videos on YouTube, and Google everything else.
It can be difficult because 'you don't know what you don't know' but getting good at asking the right questions on Google will get you far!
I like Traversy Media and DevEd on YouTube (not affiliated in any way).
I do want to caveat...it depends what your goal is. If you're launching an MVP, I'm a big advocate for 'no code' (see @bentossell 's MakerPad), or as little code as possible in order to test market demand etc. But, with Llama the goal was more to learn to code, and then it kind of just grew and I figured I should launch it.
