SHOW HN: Makerlapse - Document & Share Your Journey In A Timelapse Video

I received my first sale in September 2019 and I was very happy that I make my first dollars from things I build with my coding skill but I didn't improve it since the MVP lunch until I discuss the idea with couple of other indie makers and I was very happy with the feedback I got from them

What is Makerlapse?

Makerlapse is cross-platform desktop application built with Electron and it's record your screen by taking screenshots every second when you stop recording you get the time-lapse video ready and you can add a soundtrack from the app

Why I build Makerlapse?

When I started my indie making journey, I was working on my first app idea and I was reading a lot of articles about indie making from the IH interviews, posts, and also listening to the podcast. I read a post about building in public and the advantages from it and they're many ways to build in public (Live coding, share your daily todos and progress in Twitter)

I found an idea to document my journey while building an app and share it in a time-lapse video format

Also, I'm working on building a community to share your Makerlapse video with other like-minded people (for example junior developers who want to start #100daysofcode challenge and document their journey )

What the current status of Makerlapse?

I was working on improving it the last couple of weeks but in the last two days, I was rebuilding it (from recording your screen in video format to just screenshots) and I think the app is ready for early adopters but the Mac OS Catalina isn't supported yet
