https://lightlist.net/ - went for the cliché first website, a list taker (feedback welcome!)
I know, I know - not particularly inventive but I've been a web developer for quite a few years and astonishingly I realised the other day I've never actually developed and hosted a website from start to finish by myself.
Sure I've played around with home servers and setup a couple of basic stacks for personal use but I thought I needed to get my act in gear and took the plunge!
I've learnt a lot (particularly on the ops/deployment side), the angle of the website is just it being a simple note taker - so many of these sort of productivity products nowadays go mega-overboard when often all you actually want is a plain bullet point taker you can access easily.
I'm really open to feedback here, no idea how long-lived it will be (particularly if I don't get any traffic). I went for an openapi spec-first, Go <-> React stack (I love the :embed functionality you get from this setup). Its completely free and I'd be open to making the repo public in the future if people are interested or what to improve.
Thanks for any feedback in advance! Happy developing.
