For the past few months we have been heads down working on a couple of large projects for clients. Neither of these projects has launched yet. One because they are trying to ramp up their content, and the other because they are trying to get funding. What this means is that we have done a lot of work and not launched anything….not our normal way of doing things.
So yesterday around noon I decide to write and launch a small app. I tried desperately all day long to start it, but it was 9:00 PM before I could write the first line of code. After a couple hours of hacking I handed the app to Allan for design, and then I finished the tests and added the full text search. We launched the app around 2:00 AM this morning.
Say hello to the newest Less App: Less Memories.
This is a simple app whose sole intent is to help you remember things. I have a long list of small odd things that I need to remember but no real good way of doing it. I used to use Stickies and then I switch to SideNote, but after three hard drive crashes I really wanted a web solution, so here it is. Enjoy.
Stats:- Lines of code: around 400
- Lines of test code: around 320
- Development time: around 7 hours
- Design time: around 5 hours
- Start to finish: 7 hours
P.S. I pity the fool who uses this as a to do list.
