How hard can sending an email be from my web app or website?

We will start a project with multiple dev phases. First, develop a low code web app using WordPress and Crocoblock jet plugins. Second, use that as the backend for apps built in Flutter and Dart.

When to consider reliability of your emails and how to use a third-party email service like Elasticmail. We will talk thru plug-ins and domain keys to keep you emails from hitting spam folders.

As I work on developing my web app called PetStayCay, using WordPress and Crocoblock as the framwork, I realized I needed to make some changes to my hosting choices. I also do some self coaching which I think will help you on your creative project. How do we cultivate clarity, consistency, and confidence...thru challenging ourselves.

Our minds have been damaged by the educational model where failure is punished and look at negatively. Getting to success in a project, a job, a business, and life in general, is thru a path strewn with pivots, false starts, pauses, and yes failures. Learning is the most important thing you can do, and trying things - even failures - ultimately opens your success surface area.

I am using my PetStayCay web app project to share my approach to business asset development. In this case, I am creating a sustainable online business. My approach starts with 3 pillars: 1. Audience building - even before the first line or code is written or WP plugin is installed 2. Monetization strategy - ideas on how this project will be funded and sustained as I bootstrap it from zero to ? 3. The Tech - I am always focused on leveraging the WordPress open source platform as my development framework of choice

Start 2024 learning with me as I build and launch a microSaaS using my favorite platform...WordPress. This episodes gives you some basic background on my PetStayCay project. Happy New Year

If you are programming your entire micro-saas, are building it all with plugins and no-code, or a combination = low-code, then documentation is essential. I talk about a log-based type vs system-based type, and how I use both in a typical Wordpress micro- saas. And I am finding documentation important as I continue to test building with crocoblock plugins like jetengine.

I hope everyone listening can visit my redesigned website https://pluggedintoprogramming.com I am celebrating the rebuild of it using jetengine, jetformbuilder, and other crocoblock plugins. All no code! I also reached episode 30 and gave 1000 all times listens. Thank you all very much!

Just some general observations about confusion and project documentation issues when developing a low code micro-SaaS. On Day 7 of my series using crocoblock plugins to see how far I can get with no code development.

I was just listening to another podcast yesterday that had Seth Godin on as a guest. He has a new book out called "The song of significance". Anyway, Seth gave some advice to help people focus on creative projects. I am qupting him from what I jotted down while at a stop light yesterday: "What is the very very hard thing, that if it happens, your project will work better?". In other words, figure out the part that maybe you don;t know as much about (or down-right do not enjoy as much) and hit it first. So I took the bull by the horns and selected the payment gateway and membership level/user registration part. Not as flashy as the other parts of the micro-SaaS I am redoing in this ongoing test - but critically important for so many reasons. In this pod I will talk about my 11 hour saga today (on my vaca day off from J1) ... Ok I did eat a few meals at home... but it was a solid focused day. I am very happy :) Some gotchas on having to create a new business level paypal - they would not let my old paypal create APIs any more. How to get the pro version of jetformbuilder - the crocoblock super advanced form builder that I get with my license level. Turns out you get the free plugin from the WP repo and the pro parts are add-on that I get with my license. Building the form was the easy part Created a CCT using jetengine - to store some buyer info Learned about the post submit actions on the jetform settings on Gutenberg. A few gotchas due to even 1 year old youtube videos and other docs being outdated - crocoblock is modernizing everything all the time - which is great. Got some help from the cocoblock chat support - excellent and fast info Got some help from a youtube chat with some random user helping my with a 5 month old chat Completed the tests - finally getting a user registered, CCT record on the order inserted, an email to the admin sent, and a jetformbuilder form record being saved into a sort of form log All very cool. I learned a lot and it is full steam ahead. Thank you Seth Godin for inspiring my direction today - as now I can get to the fun parts :)
