65Words' March Roadmap πŸ›£οΈ

πŸ‘‹ Hey Amigos, it’s zakokor. I’m the solo developer of 65words.com, a challenge for writing 65+ words daily in the language you’re learning.


Hey, big thanks to everyone who jumped into the poll and helped me pick out the next cool feature for March! πŸ™Œ Appreciate your input!

Here's what I'll be working on in March!

Let's check out the poll results:

  • ⬜⬜⬜⬜ 30.8% I want to see the corrections I've made to others' writing ✍️
  • ⬜⬜ 15.4% Sync account on multiple devices πŸ“±
  • ⬜⬜ 15.4% Prompts ✨
  • ⬜⬜ 15.4% Writing Streak πŸ†
  • ⬜ 7.7% Points system: 1 point/day; 2 points if you wrote yesterday πŸ’Ž
  • ⬜ 7.7% Save draft πŸ’Ύ
  • ⬜ 7.7% Multiple languages per day 🌍

Based on the poll results, it seems that this time the feedback was quite varied and unclear. Therefore, this month I'll focus on enhancing the "Writing archive" page to display the corrections that users have made to others' writing.

On the other hand, before I saw those results, I knew how hard it is to think of what to write every day. So, I was busy working on the Prompt feature. It took a bunch of iterations, but it finally dropped last Sunday, and let me tell you, it's been a real hit! Every day, more and more folks are finding it incredibly useful. So Prompts is βœ….

Also, I'd like to work on a points system, even though it wasn't the top vote. The reasons are simple: I think it'll add gamification to the platform, which could be fun for those needing incentives to write daily and to form the habit. Plus, it's crucial for the platform as it could help fight spam in the future. As always, I'll aim to please everyone!

The truth is, there's still much to be done, and I'd like to take advantage of this month to focus on creating more content for the blog as well. Hopefully, this will continue to attract more users to the platform organically.

In summary, I'll be working on:

  • I want to see the corrections I've made to others' writing ✍️
  • Points system: 1 point/day; 2 points if you wrote yesterday πŸ’Ž
  • Additionally, creating content for the blog πŸ“°

Catch you later,
