I signed up to check out Spanrr. I find it useful for preview of our data from database, by non-tech stuff. Seems we could use this as a CRM for our business.

Do you plan to implement auto-complete / suggestions for queries, so it is easier for our stuff to use more advanced queries?

Creator here. As a developer, I used few online tools for collaboration on software localization, but I always had troubles when it comes to maintaining localized content for multiple versions of apps. As we all know, we sometimes start developing version 2.0 that won’t be released soon, beside already released version 1.2 that requires some maintenance and changes. I wanted to make such Translation Management System that does not block us.

So I build Localizely. You upload your localization file for main language, translate content to remaining languages and then download files for all those languages. When you start developing a new version of your app, you just create a new branch in Localizely. You can compare what keys and translations are changed between branches and optionally merge those.

This is just a start what I want to achieve with Localizely ( https://localizely.com/ ) that is not on the market. Please let me know if you have any questions. We can focus more on making our apps better if localization does not create a bottleneck.

I agree.

If it lines up with potential customers, that might be a signal for founder/market fit.

I guess you consider "I get to decide what work I'm doing" as freedom (advantage) in case of your own company?

Do you think it is even more bosses that you have as the entrepreneur (in the form of your customers) who indirectly dictate you what you need to do?
