In this blog post, I want to share the exciting journey of creating my side project, LinkCollect.io from the idea's inception to its successful launch and growth (500 is not alot but good number for us), I'll take you through the steps I took to bring LinkCollect.io to life
The Birth of LinkCollect.io:
It all started with a common problem: organizing and managing web links. As a frequent internet user, I struggled with keeping track of valuable online resources. This led me to create LinkCollect.io, a platform to collect and organize links efficiently.
Joining Buildspace.so:
To make my idea a reality, I joined Buildspace.so, a six-week program focused on building web applications. Working alongside a talented team, we dedicated ourselves to bringing LinkCollect.io to life.
The Sprint-Working Experience:
During the program, we adopted a sprint-working approach, allowing us to make significant progress in a short time. We leveraged teamwork and collaboration to develop LinkCollect.io from scratch. we used to share updates every week publicly on twitter, instagram and linkedin. this helps some words to spread and gained us our initial users, although it was not alot but enough for us to get some intial feedback to improve and iterate upon.
Tech Stack and Development:
We chose a modern tech stack for LinkCollect.io, using Node.js and MongoDB for the backend and React for the frontend. This combination ensured mid - scalability, user-friendliness, and fast performance.
What is linkcollect?
LinkCollect.io offers powerful features to enhance link organisation, helps in sharing group of tabs and links with anyone in just few click. take this link for e.g Users can save and categorize links into collections, making it easy to find and revisit resources. Sharing collections and collaboration made faster within teams or communities. Our main focus point is simplicity, we don't offer 100's of feature but whatever we offer we make sure that the user don't have to go anywhere else to solve that problem again.
Growth and User Engagement:
Since its launch, LinkCollect.io has grown to over 500 active users. Positive user feedback and engagement have been crucial to its success. Regular updates and user-focused improvements have helped build a loyal user base.
Conclusion:
By doing is the best way to learn anything and become good at it. Build more
As I continue to improve LinkCollect.io, I am excited about the possibilities and the positive impact it can have on individuals and teams managing their valuable online resources.
i will be sharing my weekly progress here, right on this platform... we will soon be launching v2, that will bring bunch of cool and most request features on to the platform.
PEECE ✌️
