After over 6 years working on the startup I co-founded (which was fully acquired by a larger company in 2024, after they had bought a majority stake in 2022), I’ve been focusing on building a new company since the beginning of this year.

I’ve explored a few different projects since January but nothing stuck, now working on https://pitch31.ai a SaaS that turns any OpenAPI specs (or Postman collections) into a conversational AI agent, so you can work with APIs without the need of a UI.

We are still early on the product and looking for some user feedback to improve it. Planning to launch it on major platforms in the next month!

Italy, as you know, has been the first western country to be impacted by COVID-19.

After the first lockdown, with the re-opening, the italian government (and most EU country) introduced restrictions for all restaurants and pubs, with mandatory contact-tracing of all their guests, in order do prevent another wave of the pandemic.

We soon noticed that the vast majority of them were still relying on pen and paper as the main solution for their contact tracing.

So we decided to challenge ourselves with a mini-hackaton. After 3 days of working heads down we built the MVP of Eatalo.

We then went out door to door to all the local restaurants in our area to "promote" the service. The results were encouraging, with a high adoption rate and great early feedbacks, which allowed us to iterate and finally make the product better. It took us 2 weeks of hard work to build the final app now we are ready to launch it worldwide!

Thanks for reporting! I'll make sure to check them out

I will consider developing a plugin for some IDEs

Cool project!

Cool, didn't know about Floobits, i'm sure it is very more complete and polished than my simple side project ;)

Yes compling and building code in real time would be a very nice feature to add!

Cool! i didn't know about firepad, yes i used Firebase too, it was the simplier solution to build something fast

Cool project! Yes it would be very intresting to standardize it

That is a good point. This was mainly a personal challenge to build a side project that could be useful in the shortest time possible (end up building this in 2 day), so my focus is not to build the next big thing but just building somethig and having fun in the process ;)

Thank you! Thanks for repoting the typo ;)

Thanks for the suggestion! I really don't know how to build an eclipse plug-in but i'll consider it!

It really depends on the language you are using, i'm using this library for the editor https://github.com/atularen/ngx-monaco-editor

Thanks for reporting it has been reportd before, im tring to fix this issue as fast as i can, i build this website in 2 days as sort of a challenge so i might have missed something.

Simply beacuse not everybody uses VS Code ;) Of course if the whole team uses VS Code the Live share function is way more powerful of my simple tool and i recommend using that :)

Yes why not! I am not a Ruby developer but you can write me an e-mail with all the info about your project at the address you find on the website!

Thanks! I wanted to build something that could make a bit more easier to collaborate on the same code, i remember when i was in uni i used to share the code with my friends to complete assignments, it was very hard to work together. In the last year i started working remotely with other freelancers and while debugging some code or doing some code review i started to think about a service that let you collaborate on the same code in real time. So i spent two days of the last week working on this project hoping that someone could find it useful :)

Ok thanks for reporting, i'll make sure to change it so that user have to opt-in

Thanks for reporting! I'll fix asap
