💀 Requires
Project Overview
The discussion centers on two side projects by a software engineer: Tomotcha, a Japanese green tea subscription service, and Requires.io, a Python dependency tracking platform. Tomotcha represents a departure from traditional technical work, focusing more on logistics, customer service, and marketing challenges.
Community Engagement
The limited community response includes a specific recommendation from ehben83 about touteslesbox.fr as a potential channel for acquiring qualified leads, which the project creator acknowledged as a potentially valuable suggestion.
Key Insights
The creator views side projects as opportunities to explore areas outside one’s comfort zone, noting that Tomotcha is particularly challenging due to its non-technical nature. They are currently iterating on their service, specifically reviewing tea shipment packaging with planned updates in November or December.
