Introducing a Service Built as a Side Project
I built a small service on my own. It's called 'Moment Curation.' I started it because there are lots of great posts on YouTube and Twitter, but nowhere to save them for later.
Here are the main features.
- Save links and categorize them with tags
- One-click saving via browser extension
- Reminder notification after a week
I also learned a lot while building it.
1. You need to set up the folder structure properly from the start. Refactoring was incredibly hard.
2. The extension API has some recent changes, so you should check the official docs carefully.
3. Since I was working alone, I spent a lot of time on design, but in the end it's better to just use a template.
It's only been a week since launch, but there are more users than I expected. I'll keep improving it as I get feedback.

Yeah, it's nice that saving links is super easy lol
When you do it alone, the design is the hardest part lol. I also set up the folder structure roughly at first and then ended up scrapping it all later — I had a serious reality check while refactoring. But these days templates are so well-made that using one seems like the way to go. It's only been a week since launch, and having users is already a success. I think you can just listen to feedback and make the features more solid.
