Show HN: A simple poll app with real-time results (hixup.com)

7 points by hixup ↗ HN
Hi!<p>This is a web app I made over the past few days as a little project to learn more about AngularJS and Firebase. The app lets you create a simple poll in a matter of seconds and without the need to register. The votes and comments are updated in real time.<p>I was impressed by Angular's features and its relative ease of learning. Thanks to Firebase I could concentrate on writing client-side code only; there is no back-end to this app. This means I can host it for free through GitHub Pages.<p>Your opinions and suggestions are most welcome. What do you like? What would you change? Any feature requests? You can have a look at the code here: https://github.com/dbbert/personal/tree/gh-pages. Coding style advice is also much appreciated.<p>Thanks!<p>Bert

Hi!

This is a web app I made over the past few days as a little project to learn more about AngularJS and Firebase. The app lets you create a simple poll in a matter of seconds and without the need to register. The votes and comments are updated in real time.

I was impressed by Angular's features and its relative ease of learning. Thanks to Firebase I could concentrate on writing client-side code only; there is no back-end to this app. This means I can host it for free through GitHub Pages.

Your opinions and suggestions are most welcome. What do you like? What would you change? Any feature requests? You can have a look at the code here: https://github.com/dbbert/personal/tree/gh-pages. Coding style advice is also much appreciated.

Thanks!

very nice.

might as well list out all the statistics though, not make people hover to get them one-at-a-time.
