I see people using apps for a lot of things that could be done over text message. Are text messages used in B2B stuff? Any use cases that you can think of? Just been curious about it today.

I've got a mobile app, and I need to add a chat feature ASAP. I know Go, Nodejs, and Elixir (beginner). Out of these, it seems like Elixir (using Phoenix channels) might be the simplest approach. But I have never built…

Just curious about the strategies or steps others took when marketing their app early on. For example, did you hire someone, or did you read a bunch of books and hack it out? Or, did something totally unique that you…

I am currently using https://docs.mapbox.com/api/search/geocoding/ for forward geocoding. I'm wondering what others use for geocoding, and their experience (how it performs, reliability, cost) Thanks!

I built out a simple group chat (rooms with members) using firebase real time database. What I've built feels brittle because I have 3 client side implementations (web, ios, android) for chat and have to make sure I…

Just wondering the pros and cons of launching on iOS first before android. Does it matter that much if my service with web ui and ios app works, and I have a link to the app store, but the play store link is coming soon…

I personally miss going out and about and cannot wait to hit my favorite restaurants and venues once this is over.

With all the things happening in the world right now, such as 4 billion people in lockdown, is it still a good time to think about or work on in-person social apps? People are saying this is gonna be a "new normal"…

I live in California where it is legal. A lot of people here seem to enjoy it, and honestly from what I've read it seems like it is probably not as bad for health as alcohol or smoking. All that aside, I've been getting…

Might be a silly question, but when I look at some of the big social sites like Instagram, Yelp, Meetup, etc. I wonder how can another company compete with them when there are so many people using those platforms?

When you build a MVP, how nice does it need to look? I'm building my own MVP for web and iOS. For web, I'm just using bootstrap to make it look decent enough because I know bootstrap pretty well. For the iOS side, I'm…
