Hi HN members,<p>I've been facing this problem recently. As a startup founder, I am managing a lot of Google Sheets. I want to hire a developer to convert it to custom websites but I couldn't find a place I could get it designed.<p>I decided to solve it myself. I tried this out with one company and they were quite happy with the solution. So I'm opening it up to everyone.<p>I'd love to see if anyone else has the same problem.
Kinda funny UI thing: I’m on my phone, and it took me longer than I care to admit to realize that the triple dash next to the logo on the top left <i>wasn’t</i> a fancy hamburger icon to open mobile nav. =)<p>I actually thought there might be a bug preventing my touch press from being captured, before realizing that I was just being a bit of a doofus.
Great that you were able to build it.<p>Something similar <a href="https://www.sheet2site.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.sheet2site.com/</a><p>Also google search yeilds at least 5 similar services.
This is as great example of how you can test the market when you have an idea before you sink too much into the setup.<p>Single launch page, a price, "contact us" just goes to a regular email.
looks cool!<p>Sort of related but not exactly the same, there's a YC funded startup that also turns spreadsheets into apps called Glide<p><a href="https://www.glideapps.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.glideapps.com/</a><p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19163081" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19163081</a>
You can also check out <a href="https://sitefast.live/" rel="nofollow">https://sitefast.live/</a>, which does something similar. The difference is that it offers a drag-n-drop page builder.
Useful, but are there any risks that accidentally including some dubious information might get your Google account suspended, including all its data? How do you make backups?
Smart idea. I could find a use for this.<p>But I have to say that I hate the word 'unlimited' when it comes to a service business. It works for software, but it is impossible for a service business.<p>If you got just a handful of clients sign up for this then unlimited tasks could turn into hundreds of man-hours.
