About me

I like to improve the life of the persons with better technologies ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

The problem I wanted to solve

I need to download a playlist from YouTube, but it the sites i found the was very expensive (Like 10$ by playlist) So i like to develop a fun and easy tool and cheaper ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

What is https://myplaylist-youtubemp3.com/?

I develop the whole site, also do the SEO part.

Tech stack

I use Python and Django as back-end (I use these because Python it's easy to use and setup)

In the front end, i try to use the minimalist version of technologies, because the page have to show the more fast as can.

  • VueJS
  • PicnicCss
    (I use VueJs because it's easy to use, lightweight )
    (I use PureCss because lightweight, no require javascript and its fun)

The process of building https://myplaylist-youtubemp3.com/

Challenges I faced

Improve my skills of developer
Learn Digital Marketing.
Do a E-Commerce.

Key learnings

I learn a lot.
Use VueJs instead of AngularJS (in the beginning i started with Angular, but was a mystake)

Tips and advice

Learn the minimalist technologies that are according your use. Not about the "trend" technologies.
