8 years ago Hey @josephknight. I appreciate the encouragement! I'm happy to know there are people out there that enjoy improving their development skills using this app. I'd love to reach a larger audience with the app, but, like you mentioned, it's in a weird position where you might not search for it explicitly and really only stumble over it when looking for something else. It's something I can't quite figure out how to remedy. I definitely agree with you that a little UI work is needed and some fine polishing would make the app really smooth. The only problem then becomes how to bring attention to it.
Regardless, I'm excited that you enjoy the app. What would you like to see in the app? Do you have any feature requests?
Not the place for this but Twitter is not an alternative so here goes:
I use your app at least once a week. I literally have the time scheduled with a reminder because the results are insanely productive. You have a beautiful gem here, but people need to know how useful it is.
I was searching for git related apps when I stumbled upon yours without any knowledge of how useful it would be and without being convinced by the description. Folks need to know this will enhance their dev chops, regardless of industry, regardless of skill level. Since using this consistently I have boosted my library repertoire and coding speed by such a degree I can never go back. With a bit better monetization, with boasting yet truthful advertising claims, a few extra features and definitely a little bit of iconography and design to glam the idea and have it "stick" in the minds of passers-by, this could eventually be an Editor's Choice contender.
That goal is achievable. The rewards are potentially huge.
