Musings

Initial Thoughts

Fucking Launch

Even if its only facebook/twitter + etsy store postings, FUCKING LAUNCH

Even if the UI is less than stellar (but exists), FUCKING LAUNCH

Even if there are no sponsored/tracking links for purchases, FUCKING LAUNCH

Even if we have to seed it with products that people aren't even selling through us, FUCKING LAUNCH

Architecture

Rails. It's simple. Other developers can pick it up easily. FE JS MVC easily integrated in components

Jobs + a simple queue to post (ActiveJob + Sidekiq)

Heroku. Because simple.

Design

Start with no styling whatsoever.

Let Caleb style it for 7 days.

Launch whatever is there from that, hold off his tears because our baby isn't beautiful enough.

Realize ugly babies eventually hit puberty and turn into daughters you're worried are gonna get laid.

Turn into daughter we're worried will get laid.

Business Model

Make 50 people happy.

Plan after that.

Funding

Maybe think about it once we make 100 people happy.
