"What's My Set?" is out on the App Store! It's a set counter for workouts, and look at those beautiful Accessibility nutrition labels shipping from day one. Congrats, @chriswu.com! Go download and rate it.

Been getting more and more requests for Bartab features while being busy with Vitrine. One of them is a self checkout feature, customers make orders and use a given PIN code to put it on their tab. #buildinpublic #indiedev

Vitrine 1.0.3 with support for comments on public miniatures sent for review to push to beta testers. Vacation mode has slowed down development but we’re still moving forward! #miniatures #paintingminiatures #miniaturepainting #warhammer #wargames #wepaintminis #buildinpublic #tabletop

🚨 Announcing our HEADLINER speakers for the FIRST EVER Swiftsonic! 🚨 Come hear from these ROCKSTAR devs in Nashville this November 🤘

I'm so excited over this new feature. It didn't take that long to build, but my GOD it will be a great thing to have, as the native APIs lack any kind of undo support.

KeyboardKit@keyboardkit.bsky.social · last mo.

KeyboardKit 10.7 will feature a brand new undo manager, which lets you undo text insertions, deletions and autocompletes. This will be a huge improvement to the keyboard engine, and allows us to build nice features on top of it, like a back swipe to undo the last change. github.com/KeyboardKit/...

This is pretty wild: I’m approaching $10k proceeds from the App Store. By no means an app business I can lean on completely, but quite a ways from my expectations back in 2022 when I released Bartab after building it as a means for learning how to code. Consistency is key! #buildinpublic

Bartab is seeing an increase in German and French users. Localization work paying off? 🤔 #buildinpublic

Seeing my best month to date, app revenue wise. 🥳 A combination of Bartab subs, uptick in lifetime purchases and the Vitrine launch. What’s interesting is this is still at sub 150 monthly downloads, so the hardest part of app business is still the biggest bottleneck; distribution 🙃 #buildinpublic

Okay this wasn’t as cumbersome to implement as I feared. Still needs some ironing out of course, but I like this already! Next up: Vitrine user mentions and bug chasing. #miniatures #paintingminiatures #minipainting #warhammer #wargames #wepaintminis #tabletop #paintingwarhammer #buildinpublic

Okay, after a short hiatus for deck building and family stuff, I’m back to working on Vitrine. Post launch updates pushed for review on both platforms, with profile tab redesign and minor fixes. Next up is enabling comments on public miniatures to help build a community feeling! #miniatures

When I’m not building apps I’m building… other things. Now that this is done I can go back to focusing on updates to Vitrine and Bartab!

Some trends I’ve been seeing for Bartab since moving from hard paywall with 7 day trial to freemium with no trial: - Fewer false positives, ie. subscribed then immediately cancelled. - Less churn in general, users subscribe after knowing the value they get from the app. 1/2 #buildinpublic

Not gonna make a big thing of it, but if anyone would like to commission a model from me then my DMs are open. Got let go from my job a few weeks back so would really help out. #warhammer #40k #minipainting #warhammercommunity

I’m getting rid of the profile settings and merging a purged version with the existing profile view. I feel like this makes for a more coherent and easily digestible experience. #miniatures #paintingminiatures #minipainting #warhammer #wargames #wepaintminis #tabletop #buildinpublic

I genuinely like this app, I don't look at other peoples work much but when I do it's pretty cool. Mostly I use it to track my projects so I don't end up with a phone full of WIP pics and it's pretty awesome for that.

It’s been awesome seeing Vitrine come alive, with more and more beautiful miniatures being published constantly. Excited to keep building on this foundation and improving it going forward! #miniatures #paintingminiatures #minipainting #warhammer #wargames #wepaintminis #tabletop #buildinpublic

Literally every purchase so far for Vitrine has been the lifetime option. The goal was to provide a non-subscription option that feels reasonably priced, but maybe I overdid it 🤣 Will keep an eye on this and maybe recalculate the app economics if the trend stays 😅 #buildinpublic #indiedev

The app is Vitrine by @joforselldev.bsky.social I’m in the beta and it’s pretty good. Lots of customisation, lets you build your collection, paints and track progress. Worth a look.

Less than a week until release! Release builds up for review with Apple and Google, last thing to go in them is this substitute paint feature. Don’t forget to preorder for 50% off any Premium plan! #miniatures #minipainting #wepaintminis #warhammer #wargames #buildinpublic #indiedev

Hey, look at that! 200 likes! I’m basically TikTok famous! #buildinpublic #indiedev

You can now wishlist paints, or mark owned paints as running low or empty. These’ll then show in a cohesive shopping list for the next time you’re at the hobby store! #miniatures #paintingminiatures #miniaturepainting #warhammer #wargames #wepaintminis #paintingwarhammer #tabletop #buildinpublic

Creators get credit and a showroom link on each copy made from their paint recipes. There’s also a copy count to help gauge interest for any recipe and a push notification when copied. #miniatures #minipainting #paintingminiatures #wepaintminis #warhammer #wargaming #buildinpublic #indiedev

You can now see directly in the feed if a miniature has paint recipes attached to it. Paint recipes are also now available from the details screen, so you can get there with fewer taps. #miniatures #minipainting #paintingminiatures #wepaintminis #warhammer #wargaming #buildinpublic #indiedev

Want a showroom of your own? You can reserve your handle today at vitrineminis.com/reserve to make sure you get the handle you’re familiar with, then link it with your account after launch on June 8. #miniatures #minipainting #wepaintminis #paintingminiatures #buildinpublic #indiedev

I’m learning that I am terrible at predicting what videos will be (relatively) popular in short form video feeds. I’m also learning that coming up with content is exhausting 😮‍💨 #buildinpublic #indiedev

Made some small improvements to the showroom miniature screen. Makes browsing even more enjoyable! Don’t forget to preorder Vitrine for 50% off any premium plan 😊 vitrineminis.com #miniatures #minipainting #warhammer #wargaming #buildinpublic #indiedev

New build coming up with push notifications! Only likes for now, but want to also add counter + notifications for when someone copies one of your recipes. Also, ground work for when comments are added 👀 #miniatures #minipainting #warhammer #wargames #paintingminiatures #buildinpublic #indiedev

It's that time of the week again. In UK it's a public holiday on Monday and the weather forecast is ☀️. So, if you fancy a walk or wheel why not choose the path less travelled and let Hike Maker suggest a new route unique to wherever you are or plan to be? #walking #travel #outdoors #hiking #indiedev
