Hello HN, I’m Jan, creator of DocTemple.<p>The idea came from doing much more advanced version for one of my customers where he needed a tool to fill repetitive templates with data from the database. Employee enters database id and based on the data it filled it accordingly (with loops and conditional statements within document).<p>After working on it I was like „Wait a minute, there has to be more companies that are underserved in that specific area of filling templates manually.” So I created a completely new app based on the same idea - to let people fill thousands of templates in minutes instead of hours. And to let them do it in simple fashion. I truly hope I achieved that.<p>After long 6 months of developing my own product (there where months that I had only 2 days to work on it because day job and life + never implemented payments before) and making sure everything works as I wanted I can finally say it’s ready to show it to the world.<p>For sure the biggest challenge here will be to find the companies that actually need it.<p>I hope you will like this little tool! If anything you can reach me out here and on the chat on the site as well.<p>Thanks and looking forward to your thoughts and feedback!
