I was inspired by @chrismessina to build my own Raycast extensions after he released his own! I have been using Raycast a lot more thanks to a gentle nudge from @jakecrump (and @Raycast's latest AI releases), so I knew I wanted to build my own Raycast extension at some point.

There was a lot of news about Cyberpunk for Mac released and I wanted to search if there was a deal for it on PC. I instinctively went to search Raycast .but it wasn t there. So my extension idea was born!

My goal was simple: make it easier to hunt for video game deals right from the Raycast command bar. What followed was a rapid journey of prototyping, debugging, and learning. I m excited to share what I learned and hope it will encourage more makers to ship their ideas.
You can view my IsThereAnyDeal (ITAD) Extension on GitHub here! I will launch it when it's approved on the Raycast store :) I'll publish a more in-depth, nerdy guide later. But for now...here's my experience building a Raycast Extension!

On Product Hunt, I can see many people launching their products using "vibe-coding tools" like @Lovable , @bolt.new , or@Replit

I reckon many people who created something with them are usually developers who didn't have enough time for building a side idea before, but with AI, they could make it happen.

Tons of great products that we know and use everyday are the result of pivots. You know, sometimes the original idea just isn't working and you have to find a new niche and quick, other times you stumble on a use case that changes the whole game.

Have you ever pivoted? What's the story behind it? How successful was the pivot? I'd love to hear your stories, and potentially feature them in our newsletters!

Since seeing Den's #1-of-the-week launch, I've been playing around with it. I'm not quite at the conviction yet to rip out Slack and Notion. That would take a lot, especially given how much history and data we have, as well as workflow practices around it. But I'm finding it really intriguing so far. Here are my initial thoughts:

1) The merging of Slack channels and Notion spaces feels very natural.

Mozilla recently announced that they're shutting down Pocket. I used to use Pocket a lot back in the day, but I don't find myself regularly saving articles that much now.

For those that are still using Pocket, what are you planning to switch over to?

I won't hide the fact that instead of entering key phrases into Google, I'm now redirected to the GPT Chat and asking complex questions.

Over the past year, ChatGPT has become the 5th most visited website in the world, and most recently, it also recommends products.

Weekends are for side projects!

Share what you're going to be building or an idea you're kicking around.
