How I spent 1,800 hours building a "grid-free" HTML editor as a solo maker

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Bowen.

I just scheduled my launch for HtmlDrag this Saturday. I've spent the last year (roughly 1,800 hours) obsessing over one single problem: Why is editing existing HTML so restrictive?

Most builders force you into grids and boxes. I wanted to create a true freeform canvas where you can drag anything anywhere, even on complex existing pages. It was a brutal journey of refactors, but I finally made it.

As a solo maker without a big team or marketing budget, I'd love to hear from this community: What's the longest you've ever spent on a "tiny" feature? Was it worth it?

Is “US-first” still the right default for AI products?

With today s tools, translation (UI, copy, even video) is no longer the hard part.

What slows us down instead are things like tax, legal compliance, hiring, support, payments sometimes even geopolitics. The moment users show up from a new country, a product problem turns into an operating one.

New here!

Hi all,
I heard about this platform from a colleague and have been exploring from last 1 week. Really exploring the products here. Any tips on how to view, explore more on new launches?

2026 and your goals. Let's try to set them for Q1.

Since I haven't been able to meet my work goals very well in the last few quarters, I now plan to approach them more systematically and not push myself too hard on work goals, as that ultimately led to problems that made my plan less sustainable.

So here is my structure and list:
