Starting my indie hacker journey with something fun (for Strava users)

Hi everyone!

I've decided that 2022 will be the year where I become an indie hacker :)

There are few ideas that I'd like to try and I will share my progress here.

In the meantime, I just released something fun for Strava users. It’s called Stragif and it is just a web application where Strava users can add a GIF to their running activities. They can also comment on their friends activities with a GIF. You can see what it looks like on the website.
I've built this product only to get back in the creation mood and as a first step in the IndieHackers world. I have no big plans for it, especially not monetizing it.

It feels good to ship something even if it's just for fun yet. I can't wait to start hacking on my other ideas.

Have a good 2022 :)

    Another Strava member?! Drop your handle, Matheiu, I'll follow your journey. I love Strava and being able to share my runs with other runners so we can encourage each other to go harder. Adding a GIF definitely will add more spice to my experience on the app ;)

      Thanks @webinsider! I'm mathieuginod on Strava...But it's been a few weeks since my last activity. Let's blame winter for that :)

    Cool but you could probably showcase some examples!

      Hi @koala888. You're right, I edited the post to include a link to an example: https://www.stragif.run/stragif-in-action

        Nice, consider adding it to the landing page to make it obvious

          It already is, but not visible enough obviously :)
