awsidiqi··on SVG Viewer – View, edit, and optimize SVGs
I actually tried to implement this exact feature about a year ago, but gave up after a day of working on it because it seemed too difficult. Given this feedback, it might be worth trying again. Thank you!

Didn’t expect this to blow up on Hacker News on the weekend! We’re a small company based out of Vancouver, BC that creates software tools (https://www.checkersoftware.ca/).

Thanks for posting it and thank you all for your kind words.

Let me know if you have any questions!

awsidiqi··on My SaaS Journey from $1000/Mo Heroku to Home Server
We also moved off of Heroku, but instead of a home server, we moved to Hetzner (https://hetzner.com/) and threw Dokku on top. Significantly cheaper than Digital Ocean (ridiculously cheaper than Heroku) and has a good reputation on HN.

We opted for their VPS's in Ashburn, Virginia, but you can get dedicated servers in Europe as well. Depends where your customers are.

You can do this a lot quicker and more reliably than trying to run your own servers from home.
