1. I get excited about a new project 2. I buy a domain 3. I get busy, and the domain collects a thick layer of dust
I know I'm not alone in this, either
So, I had the idea of creating a simple and casual marketplace for folks like me to list their domains at a fair price with a nice community feel to free up these caged domains
It felt like a great project for me to pick up some new skills, so I got to it
All up, it took me about a month, and I built the whole thing live on Twitch
I've always sat on the design, marketing and front-end side of the fence, so this was my first attempt at making a 'full' web app
Here's the stack I used:
- SvelteKit (https://kit.svelte.dev/)
- Supabase (https://supabase.com/)
- Resend (https://resend.com/)
- ShadCN Svelte (https://www.shadcn-svelte.com/)
It was super fun to build, and as a beginner, I learnt so much
I leaned on AI quite heavily to help advance my speed of groking certain concepts within both SvelteKit & Supabase, and I blogged about the experience and my learnings here: https://aroreretini.dev/projects/dwarf/
Any feedback/criticism very much welcome, I've got a lot to learn :)
