Idea / Design / Front-End-Development
While extensively working with social media tools during that period, I had an idea to create a Slack bot that could autonomously keep the team informed about crucial social media statistics at designated times.
With the help of a skilled developer friend, we rolled up our sleeves and crafted a functional prototype of the Slack bot. We built it using Elixir Phoenix (a web framework), integrated various social media APIs, and designed a corresponding landing page with Stripe integration.
In the end, regrettably, both of us lost interest in marketing the project, and it never really took off. Once again, the marketing hurdle! š
Nonetheless, we gained a wealth of knowledge about working with various social media APIs and the Slack developer ecosystem. So, that's what we took away from the experience.
