Most modern mobile devices include vibration hardware, which lets software code provide physical feedback to the user by causing the device to shake. The Vibration API offers Web apps the ability to access this hardware, if it exists, and does nothing if the device doesn't support it.

We just reached 700+ users. That's not a lot for a social network – not even for a very niche one like ours – but I really enjoy the vibe of the community so far.

Grateful to everyone who has signed up. I hope we can continue to grow at a nice and comfortable pace.

Running my first ever marathon in Berlin at the end of the month. Looking at the weather there right now and feeling a slight twinge of panic ngl.

Working on like 4 big things at the same time. What could possibly go wrong.

Our daughter was born ~2 weeks ago which meant it was time for a (well-deserved) break. But now I’m back on my bullshit again.

First up: weekly, personalized emails for all of our users.

The first-ever Year in Review mini-site for Record Club. Very happy with how this one turned out.

Working on an iOS wrapper for our PWA. And man… haptic feedback makes a huge difference for the overall app experience. I wish Apple would adapt the Vibration API, but I’m not holding my breath. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Vibration_API

I was recently interviewed by the great newsletter Apptisan.

Managed to break my wrist while hiking on a cliff. Conclusion: never leave the comforts of your home office. Guess I’ll have to do some one-handed development going forward 🥲

First thing I see when I arrive in Berlin is this convoy of Trabants, of course.

I got inspired by my '70s Marantz analog radio tuner for this month switcher. Coming very soon. 👀

Working on reworking our invite system to use shareable codes instead of invite by email. Any good examples of apps that do this and is still invite-only? I know of Cosmos.
