Plocs on the front page of Hacker News

This week, Plocs was on the front page of Hacker News!

Hacker News is the #1 news site for software developers and IT people.

I posted a “Show HN” thread on Thursday afternoon, expecting something like 10 website visits.

When I checked our website traffic an hour later I saw a spike… The thread had already been upvoted, had several comments and people were trying our demo.

We received almost 3000 website visits, more than 100 people signed up (3.5%) and we received 20 comments on Hacker News with very detailed feedback.

We even had several applications to our C# / TypeScript developer position!

Hacker News is a truly incredible and constructive audience if you are building something that appeals to a technical audience. Thanks HN!

    Hi. I love your app.
    There is one function I can’t find, or it doesn’t exist: Mark task complete.
    Keep up the good work : )

      Thank you!
      To mark a task as complete, click the target icon next to the delete button. We are planning to change the icon to a checkmark to reduce the confusion 🙂
