After a full month of closed beta, @missagla and I have just made readable.fm open to the public!
We fixed a lot of quirks 🛠️, improved our pricing model 💰 and shipped a new landing page ✨
Feel free to try, RT, and give us feedback 🤗

It feels good to also build physical things :)

Hey parent builders 👋
Have you ever tried to teach coding to your kids? 👨👦👦
My boys (8 & 10) already did some Scratch but they learn more about how to draw, animate & record sounds than the coding per se. 🏫
I'd like to try something else, any idea?

Once validated I’ll build a real one with wood

Our product is about to be released, open for the public, and we will switch for a few weeks in full marketing mode.
Definitely out of my comfort zone, I feel a bit nervous about it 😬

PageSpeed is hard!
I manage to get almost a perfect score on the desktop, but on mobile, it complains about 2sec wasted for unused JS 🤷♂️
I think I'll just live with it, I guess it shouldn't hurt SEO.
How are your insights?

Made the mobile performance score go up to 77 by wrapping some 3rd party script snippets into DOMContentLoaded callbacks
Improved my score again. Just because this is fun 🤓
Tricks involved in this tweet: xitter.cf/cblavier/status/164385…
well @benvp_ I'm such a perfectionist that I still wanted to earn a few more perf points. I couldn't help 😅
so I:
- created a new landing.js bundle (no hook, no jquery)
- deferred 3rd party scripts (DOMContentLoaded + extra 5s delay)
- lazy-load image & iframe with lazysizes
I'm excited to share with you what the landing page of @readable will look like later this week! ✨
About 4 days of work on this page: @missagla in Figma and me in VSCode :) 👫
This is a huge milestone as readable will then be open to the public! 🌍

Switched to USD and made a responsive version, thanks for the feedback @vinnerroy 🙏
I asked ChatGPT to improve our landing copywriting, with a "catchy tone"! 🤖
I can tell you that with this shiny and top-notch tool, we got you covered! (we also have your back!) 🔥 Let's take it to the next level 🚀
Bingo-bullshit is only a prompt away 🫠

Are you no-code or know-code? Maybe both?
I tried to get into no-code with Retool to quickly pull out a back-office UI, but as I started using it, I realized that no-code was a new skill set to grow, and that I would be faster with the skills I already master: code.
And you?
I'd like to add a few CSS animations on my landing page, that would be triggered by scrolling.
Does it require Javascript?
Does Tailwind offer anything to achieve this?
