Yes, this would be so perfect! Love hackathons)
Would be nice to know any tips on building the community/network effects for the product.
I started to use no-code to conceptualise the product, but really regret it now, as I've spent too much time trying to bend it for my use case. Would be much quicker to code it myself.
Hi @kimsia just wanted to share a new tool from Adobe, I've discovered: leonardocolor.io/ It allows to design colour palettes for interfaces and data viz.
Thank you so much @thinkolson ! To be honest, I have zero sense of style, so just used default chakra settings :)
I really liked Chakra UI, was much easier for me than bootstrap.
Thanks Maria, I'll check that out! Your project Sustinero has a super clean design, I really like it 👍

@santas_dev thank you, great advice on bringing our home on a trip, definitely need to declutter to prepare for nomadic lifestyle)
@jelmerdeboer congratulations to you and your girlfriend on a new baby! Taking the first trip at 3 month old is super cool, I was afraid to leave the house at that time haha.
@marc I would definitely pay for online events and round-tables for the opportunity to ask questions and pick the brain of people who are successful in their niche, in my view it's very motivating. I also love how you share actionable tips like where to host website and which libraries you use, this saves a lot of time and eliminates decision fatigue))
As for payment I am happy to pay, it is totally worth it and more! But for a person coming from a third world country it might be a bit expensive, especially for people who have potential, but are just starting their career? So, I think inviting people for free based on merit and their fit to the community would be great.
Thanks, yes we're currently excluding a lot of people from different parts of the world.
Part of my response has been that with remote work and the online gig economy, it's becoming a lot easier for any entrepreneurial person to earn some money to afford a $20/mo subscription (e.g. spending 1-2 hours a month on doing gigs on Upwork should cover it), but perhaps that's an overly optimistic view?
Either way, I think having a free-tier would definitely open up to a wider audience. And as long as we make sure we still curate for pasionate, positive and entrepeneurial people, then they should be a value-add to the community regardless of their current discretionary budget.
With regards to the online events, I'll be looking into hopin.com which @marver777 recommended to me a while ago.
