Student pricing #1

Open xplosionmind opened 3 years ago

xplosionmind commented 3 years ago

Thank you very much for providing these insights about advantages concerning pricing for specific regions. Nevertheless, as a student, I am looking for special discounts for students, instead. Do you know any website which does this? Could student discounts be added to Bill My Pocket?

Thanks a lot. Best, T

Hi T,

Thanks for opening this issue! I'm currently learning Django 3.x and plan to re-write this into a monolith site with a goal to make it easier for anyone to contribute data using a UI on the website itself. The current site is heavily limited to people who have the skill set required to contribute (having an account on GitHub, knowing how to write PRs, baseline familiarity with JSON). Even then, it's not as low barrier as I'd like.

With the re-write, I'd be very much interested in collecting data targeted towards different demographics (students, non-profits, etc.) as much as suggesting a fair price barometer for regional prices.

That said, I don't wish to spend too much effort adding any more features into the current tool as it would be a time-sink. Unfortunately, I don't know if anyone is already writing such a tool. 😔

P.s. I'll leave this issue open so that I can refer back to it when I start the re-write.

Wow, thanks for such a fast response!

I am going to stand-by then, waiting for a GUI to add services directly from the website.
Thank you very much for your work from a huge fan!
