Shipping

January 9, 2014

I shipped my very first Ruby on Rails app today! It’s called Daily Weight and it is a simple tool for keeping track of how much you weigh so that you can track your progress.

My goal for my first app was that I wanted to make something that I count actually use and something my mom could even use. My whole programming career has been developing applications for businesses that do complex things that would be impossible for my mom or anybody not in the industry to understand. Not only that it is nice to work on an application that I actually want to use in Production mode.

Daily Weight is far from a polished product, but that’s okay, I shipped it and I can continue to iterate on it on a regular basis.
