oceankid | 2 years ago | on: Ask HN: Is there an e-commerce platform that doesn't suck?

We've got an online shop with 5M daily requests. We figured out it was better to build the tech in-house to control the entire UX– custom shop, checkout flow, exchanges, labels, inventory speed and rotation.

Next step was moving all the fulfillment, purchasing and BOM parts over to a proper ERP system, like Odoo. Apart from one developer time, it costs us under $100 to run (the CDN costs the most).

Now we're pulling everything together under one UX. Sure, it's not for everyone, but it was fun to build and it's been a game-changer for us.

Not long ago, Microsoft acquired Lobe.ai by Apple designer Mike Matas and others. Really well thought out app. Effectively dead now.

Is anyone building a GUI based service for training domain specific models? Such as image creation (or correction) based on a trained style, image recognition for security, sales data classification and forecasting.

The language on the website seems to be targeted to an audience with knowledge of a subset of languages. Instead it would help if it talked about the problem it seems to solve for a regular "general purpose" programmer.

Doesn't help that the author comes off as super defensive.

I've been building prototypes with this. It is everything good web design should be– UI with good contrast, legible type and accessibility patterns.

My only gripe is perhaps if their teams made example pages from their own use cases– sub-nav from the components page, charts/references from their Covid dashboards.

Great work overall!

Came here to say I love how focused your product feels.

If you're using Nim to target JS, a demo link of the Gantt would be super nice.

ps: A minor image 404 on the feature page there.

Congratulations on the launch! Downloaded and seems quite polished.

Recently found and use 30% of something called Obsidian so native UI and attachments are welcome.

I saw the option to view as Spreadsheet but wasn’t obvious how one was made? The concept of fields seems cool. Are there plans for data extraction/APIs?

Congrats again!

I'd love to throw an investment into something like this with GUI, marketing and supply chain resources to build a solid computer under $300 for a developing world.

Go up against Fuchia and Google hardware in less time and with more clarity.

Must be feeling some pressure because they've redesigned that homepage three or four times in a very short time.

+1 with author on BunnyCDN. Low latency, good value and great support!

I'd pay them more if they handled adaptive bitrate automatically.
