The code is available for free and you can host it on your own Cloudflare account. Cloudflare provides a free plan (up to 100k daily requests across all your Workers), and paid plan ($0.50 per 1m requests)

Launched Widgetery.com (A Product Hunt-like widget for lead capturing) yesterday. Still have to learn a lot of things on making such kind of widgets, however it was really fun to build. By the way, any feedback is appreciated!

Thanks for your feedback!

I think http://ui8.net may be a viable option for now if we're talking about design/ui-kits/templates/etc. However, I'm not sure how big their customer base is.

Support didn't take much time. However I felt that my plugins were outdated and they were too simple and haven't added a real value to WordPress eco-system.

Thanks for your feedback! I totally agree with you regarding the issue with non-top selling items - most of them have never been updated, so it's like a playing in lottery.

Yep, it was a side project, I'm living in a Eastern Europe (where avg. salaries are less than $500/mo), so ~$800/mo was a good additional income for me. It probably would not worth it if you're living in US/EU.

As I mentioned in other comments, it's not an replacement for SQLite or any other database engine. I created this script for my own needs and shared it because it may be useful for other developers.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but SQLite database could be downloaded from web-browser. There is a some ways to prevent it by keeping db files above www/ dir or via htaccess, however what you will do if you have only limited access to www/ folder and .htaccess aren't supported?

Sometimes SQLite is not an option and I created FlatDB for my own needs. This is not a replacement for SQLite or other database engine.

Posted by maxko on Thursday April 07, 2016 @10:28AM
from the self-post dept.

Hi there! I created a WordPress plugin starter kit / boilerplate, so probably it will be useful for someone. The project is available on GitHub - https://github.com/maxkostinevich/wp-plugin-starter-kit Starter Kit is based on Tom McFarlin's WordPress Plugin Boilerplate version 2.6.2. The Starter Kit contains some useful modules, such as: - Custom Database Tables with CRUD - Custom Taxonomies...

Parse.com, cloudControl, and I'm just curious, who will be next?
Re:Facebook is closing Parse on Friday January 29, 2016 @04:47AM (#10994368)
Suddenly! I just finished pretty complex app which relies on Parse, can anybody recommend some alternative service? I have looked at Kinvey, but it seems too expensive. Does anybody have experience with Backendless?
