##Concept

GitHub Burndown Chart as a service. Public repos are free, for private access auth via GitHub and pay.

##Notes

  • payment gateways in Canada: Shopify, Chargify list; I get free processing on first $1000 with Stripe
  • start people on a Community plan showing them a comparison table to upgrade to a better offering
  • community (open source, local storage), business (private repos, firebase)
  • keep discussion going via gitter or have people comment from the app via helpful
  • credit card form ux from Designmodo
  • workers: using a free instance of IronWorker and assuming 5s runtime each time gives us a poll every 6 minutes. Zapier would poll every 15 minutes but already integrates Stripe and FB.
  • worst case scenario I provide even Small Business plan for free and provide a better experience
  • $2.5 Node.js PaaS via Gandi with promo code PAASLAUNCH-C50E-B077-A317.
  • let people vote on features they want to see fast: tally.tl.
  • use readme.io for documentation

##Plans

###Community

  • your repos are saved locally
  • no auto-updates to milestones, everything fetched on page load
  • no private repos

###Business

  • you need to pay for a license to use the app for business purposes
  • repos, milestones saved remotely
  • auto-update with new information
  • private repos
