Hi HN - a clinical pharmacist for close to 10 years. As COVID hit, my wife stayed home and took care of the house. Found myself with a lot of evening and weekends with nothing to do. So, decided to use the time productively and learn how to code.<p>173 days later —&gt; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;joyful.gifts" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;joyful.gifts</a><p>This app have been in production for 2 years now. It gave me the courage to call myself a software dev and get a job where I can code and do pharmacy stuff too.<p>Happy to answer any questions about the process!

Cool project, however for me the value of a gift has always been the time and thought someone put behind getting me a gift than the actual gift itself. I feel like services like this would just take it away.<p>Plus wouldn&#x27;t you want to get the person what they wanted rather than what a &lt;typical person of that demographic&gt; wants? It&#x27;s a lot less personal this way.

2.9% fee + risk the person being unhappy (meaning you have to return and waste time on that)<p>or<p>pick it yourself, save 2.9% of your money<p>latter for me, decent project regardless, upvoted
