Hello friends🤙, I'm Dave from Chicago!

What are you working on these days?


I work as a Rails engineer, and I've been running Move, https://m0ve.app, solo w/h contractors for about 2 years now.

It's an app that allows you to craft events and groups quickly with the least amount of friction.

What can the WIP community help you with right now?


I'm currently working on improving the mobile app. I'm using Rails and Turbo Native, so if anyone would like to connect about how we're doing things in a hacky way or share strategies and concepts, let me know! Our goal is to make the app feel as native as possible with little to no custom iOS Swift code.

Our front-end uses Tailwind and Stimulus, so we're pushing those to their limits without relying on a ton of Javascript.

What can you help others with?


If you need help with Rails, or Turbo Native, I can be your guy. I have about 7+ years of rails experience, and Move has become pretty robust under the hood in terms of its capabilities. It utilizes Stripe Connect to operate as a marketplace and offers a host of other features that I wouldn't mind sharing about how they work.

Something else you want to share?


I'm interested to know if anyone is delving into Growth Hacking—not in a superficial manner where you're trying to make a product go viral with gimmicky tricks, but rather in exploring strategies and concepts. This could involve building features into a product that drive user growth or utilizing referral marketing and revenue sharing to expand the user base.

Overall, I'm eager to learn and offer what I know to help others. I'm just a message away, though my response might be a bit delayed at times—I'm here!
