A writeup

http://typecatch.com

Problem: Help to find interesting font pairing

hurdle: Load multiple font data -> Use <link rel=”preconnect” href=”https://fonts.gstatic.com">

hurdle2: Save like and dislike to database. I use 2 column for table. 1 is upvote and other is downvote

hurdle3: Bloated JS Code. I didn’t expect that there are multiple functions going on here

hurdle4: Deploying to hosting should be around 1–2 hour before planning. I faced a domain issue. while deploying last minute.

Marketing: Spread the word to indie hacker, ProductHunt, HackerNews, some discord group. Some facebook designer group.

I admit that the result is under my expectation.

No viral.

Show HN doesn’t get me anywhere.

No press indeed.

Revenue: as of now are relying on sponsorship opportunity. Still 0 interest.

That’s my report for today.
