Really tells how much they care about their craft
similar to how the central bank forced every major bank to adopt PIX (our instant payment system), they're doing the same with open banking.
Sure, it's not exactly "open" for end users. But now, as a company, I can build a personal finance app without asking for my end users bank account password. This is so much better UX-wise.
If you mind me giving some feedback: it took me a while to figure out how to properly build the auth flow with Expo/RN. In the end, I went with Expo AuthSession. IMO, you're missing an easy win with a template/getting-started guide for RN. The only one that exists uses email/password, and the OAuth flow is more convoluted than that :)
1. What does pricing look like for mobile? I'd love to give your tool a shot.
2. Why make your docs private? If this weren't HN, I wouldn't trust your product or think it was for real given the lack of public docs.
3. When you say you leverage the native platform SDKs, what does that mean for React Native? Do you use any iOS/Android native modules?
The coolest thing about the text is seeing what the original Meteor team is doing nowadays. They went to build companies like Apollo and Chromatic and found new tech like Vue.JS and Storybook.
Overall, I feel Meteor was too ahead of its time - being early and being wrong are the same thing in our world. Nonetheless, if you build a great team filled with passioned people, you eventually find your “thing”. Its just a matter of time, effort and iteration.
Working from home forces me to cook all my meals. Since I'm usually too busy to do it during lunch time, I was forced to cook them at the evenings. What I realized was that cooking and doing dishes took around 1 hour of my evening. More importantly than that, it became of the few moments of my day where I'm not using any phone/screens/tech.
That, by itself, gives me an extra charge. It's really liberating to let your mind disconnect from work and focus on something completely different.
Regarding workouts, I'm a morning person type. I hit the gym and swim 5x week during the mornings. But I can't stress enough how important doing something is. For me, skipping my exercise routine is the difference of a great and a shitty day.
I’m looking forward to understand your proposal around dignifying them.
