Oatmeal blog templates and yet another note-taking app

Hello friends!

Happy Monday. Here’s what I got up to in the last week:

  • I shipped an early version of public blogs working on Oatmeal! You can write in Notion, and then publish to this first somewhat bland template that I built. Eventually I’ll build out more templates, and you’ll be able to tweak them to your heart’s content, but starting somewhere is good.

    • Jerome did point out to me that there are massive security dangers to how I was going to allow people to fully customize their site, so — gotta go back to the drawing board for that part.

  • I built a little note-taking app for myself! Demo video here. It’s one of those situations where I got the itch to build a little app, so I spent a few days doing it, and now who knows whether I’ll actually use it. I seem to bounce between note-taking apps like nobody’s business. But I learned some new stuff about React Native, so it’s somewhat worth it.

That’s all for me this week! I hope you’re doing well.

‘till next time,

Ben
