WIP

I really like to see we all have a life. Sometimes it even remembers me I should go out. But where I'm productive and want to be, I think it's better to hide it to only get motivated by people working on they own things too. Also, generalize it would help people understand they can have a life to...
WIP's streaks are always a decisive topic. Some people claim it's what finally made them a productive maker while others dislike the unhealthy incentive to work every single day. For the people that do like streaks, it can be very demotivating when they eventually lose them and have to start fro...
We’re going to try something new. Have a specific topic for some of our weekly hangouts.  Which topics would you like to discuss? We might try and invite an expert to answer your questions. Thanks @ben for the suggestion!
If you have any feedback for me, post it here. Of course you can also share it in the chat or email me personally. People occasionally ask me what the best place is to share their ideas, so I figured I'd create a post for it. 😁
Our community is quite diverse – many people are shipping their very first products while there are also folks with five, ten or even more years of experience here.  I also see established makers willing to share their knowledge and wisdom, and new makers willing to learn. It looks like there’s ...
I'm planning to ask new members a series of questions to help them introduce theirselves to the community. The idea is to share these little interviews in our weekly newsletter, on the website, and in the Telegram chat (when the member joins the chat). Below is what I have so far, but I'd love t...
Going to Paris for a few days, I thought I'd try to contact some people shown on the map in the area: https://wip.co/makers/map Checking all 30 accounts I could find, I realized, a lot of them have become inactive, with no recent posts and deleted Telegram and Twitter accounts. That made the sea...

Seems to me like it would be great to be able to track pomodoro-style work sessions via @wipbot. So you could send: /work 30m <task> wip.chat would show a real-time display of who is working on what and wipbot would follow up when the session is over, asking:• How was that session? (1-5 qualit...

I am doing my first project on Firebase backend. It seems cool enough. Although, on the other hand PostgreSQL is so darn powerful. Anyway, does anyone know how I could set up firebase so I can get notifications when new users sign up? Also curious to hear any tips and tricks for using Firebase su...

I see a lot of great projects on here that I'd like to support in some way, but I don't necessarily want to become a user or customer of that product. There are also a bunch of cool products that are pre-revenue, or on a free side-project model, so I think it would be cool if the WIP community ...

If WIP had an AI chatbot that knew about your projects and completed todos. What are some of the questions you'd ask? I'm wondering if it would be useful. Want to collect a list of use cases first. Some ideas I thought of: • Ask it what to work on next • Let me specify my goals and ask if I'm ac...
I'd like to have the possibility to disable search engine indexation on my profile so my wip list wouldn't be available publicly to the whole internet. Is it possible ?
[Image] Hey , just installed Menubar on my new MacBook. Getting this warning every time WIP launches; it seems to be generating a randomly named executable each time it launches.  I tried: 1. Ctrl + Clicking WIP and clicking open to get it to trust the app 2. Adding it to the developer tools me...

I'm considering creating weekly reports that will show you a high-level overview of what you worked on that week, based on your WIP todos. The goal is to give you an overview of your progress, while also giving you something to share with your audience (blog, Twitter followers, etc) to update th...

I keep losing my streak because it resets at around 7PM my time. Makes it difficult to keep track of things. I last checked in yesterday at 6:36 PM and just now at 8:10 PM, but somehow I lost my streak. :( Not a huge deal but kind of disheartening and definitely has the opposite effect on my ps...

I get overwhelmed by the amount of stuff which needs to be done to ship any project which leads to analysis paralysis. I want to move out of this mindset and follow someone else's regime of shipping a project. Please share your process or thoughts
