Prior to building #simpleotp :
I just built a landing page in Carrd in 5 minutes then used a form (builtin) to send emails to my inbox whenever someone clicked sign up. I then filtered the emails later.
After building #simpleotp :
I still use Carrd for the landing page but now add a redirect to the simpleotp email signup component (which I just copy paste from the docs)
The benefit here is that users get a user profile created for them so once I’m ready to launch the app I can just send them to the login ui again and they’ll be granted access to the app with the same profile they used to sign up for the waitlist with. It’s not a huge benefit but it’s nice to not have to search through my email inbox to find waitlist signups, I can just query the user DB with a given site ID with created at before launch day, and find all the users who signed up pre launch
