60 days from first commit to Google indexing. Here's what I built,
what stack I chose, and what actually slowed me down.
What I built
QRflows is a dynamic QR code platform. The core idea: QR codes you
can edit after printing, with real-time scan analytics, Smart Rules
routing, and landing pages — all in one dashboard.
Sounds simple. The execution was not.
Analytics that actually tell you something
Most QR tools show you a scan count. That's it.
I wanted analytics that suggest what to do next — not just what
happened. So the dashboard shows engagement score, scan consistency,
peak hours, and actionable recommendations.
What I'd do differently
Start with fewer QR types. I launched with 16. I should have launched
with 5 and added the rest based on what users actually needed.
Premature completeness is just as dangerous as premature optimization.
Where it is now
QRflows is live at qrflows.app. Free trial,
no credit card. Still early — but indexed, shipping, and getting
first users.
If you're building something similar with Laravel + React I'm happy
to compare notes. What's your biggest architectural headache right now?
