Here is how building an app to solve my own problem did wonders for me

Hey folks, Last year in August, I created Timely, a Slack app to solve my own problem of converting times to my own timezone when working with people in other timezones. I posted about it on IH in August last year and tweeted with my personal account on Twitter(around 250 followers at the time). I never ended up doing any further marketing/launch posts and quickly moved on to my next side project. It is now installed in 301 Slack workspaces including: - Wikimedia - Gojek - HelixSleep — Tim Ferris podcast's sponsors - Capterra - PUBGStudio team of KRAFTONGAMES — the creators of PUBG - beondeck — the amazing On Deck Community - teams in IBM Here is the complete story https://twitter.com/therajatkapoor/status/1399394576951959554?s=20 It is amazing to see that something I built to solve my own problem is being used by so many people.
