PHP in 2022 5 years ago

I have worked with many programming languages and what attracts me to PHP the most is the simplicity of its tooling.

Wow, thank you so much for the great feedback. I appreciate it.

Some of the things you mentioned is on my roadmap but some are new to me. I love the idea of cron visualization.

For pricing, I agree, my current setup is not ideal and I plan to iterate on it in the next couple of months.

I was in a similar situation as you except I have a full-time job. I started https://cronhub.io a year ago and it's currently a profitable side-business.

You don't need to focus on the idea too much. I think it's important but seeing other companies solving the same problem should not discourage you to come up with your own solution.

Take a look at these products for inspiration (https://www.indiehackers.com/products) and some of them solve a similar problem but they still co-exist.

I've been using Amazon Product API for Booknshelf (www.booknshelf.com) by passing "category => book" in the search to query only on Amazon Books. The book search by title is quite relevant. I thought this might be useful!

The way how I usually choose my next read is by recommendations. It maybe a friend or someone I really admire. I could go over their reading list, check out the book reviews, ask my friends and pick the book.

I'm also working on my own project called Booknshelf which helps people to discover great books on different topics. It's still in an early stage but I'm excited to push it forward. It was featured on "Show HN" yesterday but here is the link https://booknshelf.com/.
