Made some awesome updates to #belugaro for language learning. Belugaro.com now supports passive language learning in French, Italian, Dutch, German, Portuguese, Turkish, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Hindi, Vietnamese, Swedish, and Russian. #buildinpublic #indiehackers
Been quietly working on Belugaro.com and the extension in the background for a bit, made some major design and functionality updates. I really like the look and feel now and there is so much more to do #buildinpublic #indiehackers #Saas #languages #spanish
Making some big changes to #belugaro If you've tried learning #spanish with #duolingo in the past but couldn't be consistent, Belugaro is right for you. Experience passive language learning while you browse
Started working on my app Belugaro again. I still have a few active users, so I decided to reach out. To my surprise, I get a great response from a user about what they like and don't like about Belugaro.
This really inspired me to continue working on Belugaro #buildinpublic #indiehackers
Looking to redesign and simplify the UI my Saas any suggestions for good examples to reference/tools to use?

Yea I found lots of sites give info but it’s generally as a means to sell their stuff. I’d love to find an api or database to search for info

Random question, are there any good open source resources/apis for gardening, hydroponics, and homesteading information #gardening #hydroponics
Changed my phone language settings to Spanish a while back, it’s changed some apps too. Now when I log a walk with garmin the activity shows up as “Caminar” and it’s confusing people 😂

Biggest pitfall seems to be scope creeps, building the wrong thing, etc. if you could close the gap of ‘what we need’ vs ‘what you made’ then you could more easily build out larger things.
Yea already said but this is pay by job. Used already in the construction field too - “Build house to ‘x’ functionality, unlock new financing”
The value add would be to efficiently define tasks and projects and to confirm their completion.
Taking a step back to add more analytics to my system. Does anyone have experience setting up a dashboard in Google analytics to track what a user does in a session and display it clearly?

Simplicity. the translation api isn’t perfect and is sometimes incorrect without context. A translation dictionary will have multiple options for the translation, further details, and sometimes lemma/stem information
Does anyone have a good free translation database that I could download? I’ve found the Webster api but I’m hoping there is some English-Spanish dictionary that I could just download. #buildinpublic #spanish
Thanks for the detailed response, you often hear more about the end results rather than the journey. But the journey is 99.9% of what you're doing day to day. It's nice to learn about the journey
How did your approach to finding clients for coaching change at the first price point vs the last?
Slowly working on seo behind the scenes. Tedious but necessary work #buildinpublic
It’s quite fast compared to OpenAI which I noticed immediately. The responses are thorough, with my long prompts with lots of context it appears to handle each distinct factor well.
I joked with some family this weekend about setting up a private instance to help with the privacy aspect.
I’ve had some time to check out deep-seek and while I don’t have the hardware to run it locally it’s a very incredible tool. I’ve had it build out a marketing plan into succinct actionable steps.
Have you tried deep-seek yet?

Took the weekend off from #buildinpublic to have a break from work and ponder my next steps. Often we’re conditioned to just keep going and don’t stop to consider the direction we’re heading.
How do you rest?
Honestly though watching birds is really cool, I see cormorants near me and watching them dive to get fish is very captivating.
Ducks 🦆 are just a solid bird too
Learn to love the process not the outcome.
Just to follow up on ‘modifying the email’. I’d recommend getting into data analytics early with this.
Look up A/B testing, and look for email systems that can track delivered/opened emails.
Then you’re not assuming any one email is better. Make the process into a game of experimentation.
My business is more like a single blue bar
Awesome! I’ll check it out
“Pepe pecas pica papas con un pico. Con un pico pica papas Pepe pecas.”
I’m looking for some books in Spanish that are a collection of short stories, any suggestions?
#learningspanish
I practice saying “Un perro rompe la rama del árbol.” So I can focus on the trill sound with r’s
But there are much more complicated tongue twisters available
So you’ll need to use chrome for the extension as right now only that is supported right now.
Dm me and we can sort it out!
Let me know here or via dm if you run into any issues, happy to help 😊
