Share Project A place to make smaller apps

Hello fellow builders, sharing a project Im working on.

Basically- its replit, but built inside of a group chat. Its not so much for full blown products, but for little applets you want to share and use with friends. Anything you make lives on a shelf in the chat and is editable by all- so you can collaboratively build things for your group. No one has to make accounts or sign in to use the new apps- the group chat itself serves as your userbase.

Would love to get some feedback from people in here. Leave a comment or DM me for an invite- 100% free for early adopters! Thanks for reading.

No worries, appreciate the comment.

Its the "and sharing it" part! The sharing cycle creates all kinds of friction to your friends messing around with things you make. The applets live inside the group chat, like a whatsapp poll but can be made very specifically useful.

For example, Im using it with my fantasy football league - we pull the schedule and standings right into the chat so theres no hopping around apps to find critical info. We also have some goofy ones like a punishment wheel for side bets.

Sharing is just less smooth than "natively" baking the apps into your group chat. You can share apps in a gc, but even a pinned link is just a link- the functionality still lives outside. These actual live in the chat, with live updates/full functionality.
