Concepts I learned while building my first SaaS app ;
I recently laucnhed an app that captures screenshots, downloads source code, and monitors DNS records. reflect of it like the Wayback Machine on steroids. I had a lot of fun working on this and wanted to share the source code and some concepts I learned. * Demo * Source Code # Concepts I learned * I took my first stab at metaprogramming. This came in handy when I needed to gather DNS records. I used the keys from an enum to dynamically instantiate different classes in Resolv. * I have a much better understanding of how to build subscription models now. I used the Pay Gem for the first time, and can't stress how helpful it is. You can see how I implemented it in the SubscriptionsContoller, ResumeSubscriptionsController, and the CreditCardsController. * I went headfirst into service objects. I structure them all using OpenStruct. I owe Nick Haskins' Playbook Thirty-Nine all the credit since I learned about that concept from his book. * I avoided using callbacks in favor of executing code in the controllers. I also started adding methods to my models that are more expressive like this. * I learned that has_one (and other similar methods) can be used to create more custom associations.

Show HN: Archive Your Website for Free
> Why not try re-submitting your post/project as "Archive your website for 14 days - free of charge.”
Fair point. Admittedly I used a more "click bait" title i hopes that people would actually take a look compared to my previous posts. It seemed to work though, since this post got the most engagement.
> Also, only 10x sites and each site is limited to 10x pages that would probably disappear the moment the money runs out or you decide to pull the plug on it vs the Internet Archive offering. Seriously?
I'm limiting it to 10x10 in order to keep my hosting and storage prices low while I try and get paying customers. I plan on expanding this once I get some paying customers (fingers crossed).
> Also, in what way(s) is your* project better than the Wayback Machine as stated in your previous submission? The Site FAQ fails to answer that.
The Internet Archive is great, but it's not perfect. You have no control over when or if your website is crawled (as far as I know) and it doesn't offer DNS archives and Lighthouse Audits.
Good point though, I should add this to the FAQ. Thanks for the tip!
> I seriously feel that perhaps I am being a bit too harsh here but if something hasn’t gained traction even after submitting it 6x times has got to tell you something.
All good! And yes, I've submitted this multiple times. It might just be that HN is not the best audience for this.
I know this product can work, since there are already a few other products in this space. And if it fails, I learned a lot in the process.
