I built a tool called LazyLink to solve a problem I kept running into. You know when you’re writing blog posts, affiliate content, or even updating a website, and you have to keep adding links to certain keywords over and over again? It’s such a time-drain.So, I made LazyLink — a simple tool that automatically converts your defined keywords into clickable links. You just tell it what words to...
I use NuxtJS + Netlify + Cloudflare (DNS). Recently Nuxt released

My sites are pretty small. The only thing I pay for now is the domain which is around $9 to $15 per year/domain.

Hi HN,I made a simple website to find Amazon's Choice products. The site is broken down into different departments and first level categories. Choice Curated is still in its early stages, and your feedback would be greatly appreciated as I continue to improve the site.Thanks,

This is super neat and fast as well. Well done!
- Ruby on Rails
- VueJS for the store. Just the part where I render the products
- PostgreSQL
- Bulma CSS
- PostgreSQL
- DigitalOcean
- Cloudflare
Two important JS libraries from Shopify:
- Shopify BuyButton.js for the product modal, cart and checkout
- Shopify JavaScript Buy SDK for product pagination
Some small businesses don't require a full online store. I'm putting my wife as an example. I agree that $15/month savings is not a big deal, but overtime, it will be. I also noticed that most customers don't care about how the site looks, as long as it's functional and they can do their purchase.
$15/month savings can be spent in FB/Instagram ads or something that can drive more customers. In 3 months, you save $45 or $180/year.
I'm also planning allow users to add multiple stores. The site is hosted in DO and can scale up easily.
True. There are a few comments here about improving the landing page. I need to put more context into it and explain what it does and the value for the users. Thanks for your feedback. I appreciate it. :-)
That's right. You will end up having a bill of $14/month in total instead of $29 for the basic plan. TinyStore doesn't offer much customization atm. You can add pages, announcement banner, logo and social handles. With more feedback from users, I can improve the store with more features in the future.
I've used WooCommerce before for my wife's online store. I hosted it in DO. It's okay, but not as good as Shopify in terms of payments, inventory management etc. I also ended up having to install a lot of plugins which most of it are in trial.
I noticed that as well. Should be an easy fix. :-) Thanks.
Agree. Thanks for this feedback. I'll put it on top of my backlog. :-)
Thanks for the feedback. There's a lot of good feedback here that will make my weekend busy.
My wife is a good example where she doesn't need a fancy storefront. She gets her customers from Instagram/Facebook. She only needs a super basic/low-end storefront for her customers to do their purchase.
there's plenty of Shopify merchants and partners who aren't even aware of the Lite plan, and if they know it's there, are unclear of the limitations. - 100% agree.
Thanks. It's 99% Bulma defaults.
Agree. Thanks for the feedback. I’m thinking to add a “How it works” section to explain what it really does.
Thanks for the feedback. I agree. I'll put it in my backlog.
Good spotting. Thanks. I just fixed it.
I made a simple web app for merchants/small businesses who use Shopify Lite Plan and want to have a simple/minimal storefront.
I built this initially for my wife. She owns two online stores in Shopify. With her Lite plan, she only pays $9/month/store versus the Basic plan for $29/month/store. Since the Lite plan doesn't include an online store, TinyStore allows merchants to have one.
The app is still new. I appreciate any feedback.
Thanks!
Thanks. The site is still new, I'll fix that bug. :-)

Sorry about that. It's currently hosted on Heroku with limited dynos. I'm planning to move it into a VPS today.
Gemfly does a simple thing compared to bundle update. The purpose is to replace the versions of your gems in your Gemfile with the latest one. It also adds version if it doesn't have one.
If you have this gem:
gem 'rails', '~> 3.2.12'
It will become:
gem 'rails', '~> 4.2.3'
If you have:
gem 'rails'
It will become:
gem 'rails', '~> 4.2.3'
It's recommended to put versions in your Gemfile specially if you're updating to a major version.
