SideProject: Blogging From WhatsApp

Image description

So, I built Writerry. It let's you blog directly from whatsApp.

We've all been there: original thoughts trapped in our heads or scattered across notes apps, never making it to a blog. The traditional blogging workflow is a developer's nightmare - complex CMSs, SEO configurations, and formatting headaches.

Tech Stack Breakdown

  • Backend: Python (FastAPI)
  • Frontend: Jinja2 Templated HTML
  • DB: Postgress by Supabase
  • Integrations: Meta WhatsApp API
  • Infrastructure: Vercel Serverless AWS Lambda

And that's it.

I learnt that balancing simplicity with powerful features is an art. I'm not a master at that. Just by chatting with AI (gpt), I learnt design concepts and implemented.

For promotions I made this video.

How I made?

  • Edited in Davinci Resolve
  • Animations by Jitter
  • Images edited in Canva
  • AI voice by Eleven Labs

I'd like to know your feedback.

Here's the pitch I made at ProductHunt:

_I'm super stoked to share Writerry with you all. We built this because, honestly, who has time to deal with complex blogging platforms? The idea hit us when we noticed how naturally people write in WhatsApp vs how they freeze up in WordPress.

We're just getting started and would love your honest feedback. Drop your thoughts or just say hi - I'll be hanging around all day to chat!_

As of now, Writerry is:

  • #9 Featured Product.
  • 140+ Upvotes
  • 30+ Signups
  • Comepeting with 140+ launches (many were VC funded actually.)

I'm happy. A product built in probably 72 hours has got some love.

Love to hear from you? I priced at $19 lifetime deal. What do you think?
