Ashish and myself just created this same tool for Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦
Try texting +1 (833) 356-1683 with your postal code, you'll get an instant reply with nearby vaccination sites 💉
We'll soon create it for other provinces in Canada ❤️
Go book a vaccine!

Over the past year, I've gone deep into the Shopify app development space with the Lazer team, building
@Shopify
apps that now do $75k+ a year
And I always wished I had an initial guide that would help me navigate the Shopify app space

Building an app for the entire country of Canada is no easy task, especially for the Canadian government
There are so many challenges associated with it, especially behind the scenes, but $54M is a bit too much
Dan from Lazer built an ArriveCAN clone in less than 2 days
Stay tuned! We’re hacking away at Lazer to show how quickly the ArriveCAN app could be created 🔥

No-code is starting to eat code
My gf asked me to build her an app that scrapes websites for pieces of data, compares data together, and if they pass a certain threshold, get sent an email
I told her, I'd need 1-2 weeks... she got impatient and built it in 2 hours with Excel 🤯

If anyone in Ontario right hasn’t gotten their vaccine yet, you can get a Pfizer vaccine today in Scarborough at this pop up clinic, and they won’t turn you away (no matter your age/eligibility)
They want to administer 2000 doses and only open today!

Hey everyone! We have gotten a tremendous amount of support for this app, but due to the LARGE amount of volume, the SMS provider we're using has begun filtering some of the messages - they're worried about potential spam.
We're working with them ASAP to resolve this!

Had a super interesting call with a leading Cardiologist in US regarding COVID-19 and how to help the situation and hospitals
Core problem is too many people are flocking to hospitals due to anxiety, and are overloading the systems and picking/spreading up the virus by doing so

I wanted to understand Abracadabra, $SPELL, and $MIM more, so I dove in
Tldr: Basically Abracadabra is similar to
@compoundfinance
but you can only supply interest-bearing tokens as collateral, and instead of borrowing other people's coins, you're minting $MIM stablecoins

We’re experiencing a ton of traffic!
As a result, our phone number can only process a certain amount of text messages per second, so there may be a 5-10 minute delay for the response!

One of the things I learned is that
@Shopify
is super supportive of not only the merchants on their platforms, but also developers on their platforms.
When people on the Shopify ecosystem succeed, Shopify also succeeds. Their incentives are aligned.
Building on Shopify versus Facebook has been night and day for us
@dovetale

@shopify
team has been nothing but supportive.
