Spinoff

what I built

Spinoff is a TV social media app, built around TV shows.

• Native Swift iOS app, with a watchlist widget
• Event-driven backend on AWS (Python Lambdas, SQS with a dead-letter queue, CDK)
• TV data from TVMaze, discussions per show, season and episode, bulk "mark as watched"
• Marketing site (Next.js) and an admin panel
• End-to-end UI tests with Maestro

what I learned

KYD and Spinoff were marketing issues. That was what I learned: I need better marketing. Spinoff didn't really have many users.
