I only have weekends to work on side projects — so I made a site to help me (and maybe you) finish them

Hey all, I’ve been guilty of this for years:

  • Get hyped on Friday night
  • Start building some cool side project
  • Sunday night hits... and it’s half-baked, lonely, and going nowhere
  • Repeat next weekend 🙃

So I built TheWeekender.dev, it’s a free platform to help people who only have weekends to work on side projects find teammates to actually finish something.

It’s for devs, designers, indie hackers, writers, anyone who wants to collaborate on something small and shippable, without needing a long-term cofounder or giant time commitment.

It’s super early and I’d love your feedback, especially if you’re someone who wants to finish more side projects but never seems to. And if you’ve got thoughts, questions, or feature ideas - I’m all ears.

Let’s finally ship something this weekend 🚀

Man this hits home, I’m always starting something and then Sunday’s over before I know it. This could save me from a graveyard of half-finished projects.

Thank you so much, @nevodavid! I'm planning to add some new features to the site over the next few weekends to make it even better. Hope to see you there!
