What we're building

Welcome to app #3!

In this project we're building BlogTexts, an embeddable JavaScript snippet that creates a chat widget on any website. Messages sent through this form will land directly on your phone as either text messages or emails.

  • server-side CSV data export

  • text message API

  • building a live preview WYSIWYG editor

  • customized feature gating for paying users

  • Rails asset pipeline
