This is a really amazing endeavour! Great job! I really like Coded and Electro Bounce. A couple questions: Could you provide some more details about individual projects (frameworks used, any source info)? Also, how long on average did you spend on each project? Finally, what's your favorite project?

I was spending an average of 10 hours a day, every day on the 180 Websites project. For YumHacker, I was working on that full time for about 6 months or so. We've been working on Zube for about 1 year now full time.

Thank you! Electro bounce is one of my favorites as well :)

180 websites is mostly Rails backed. The first 68 pages are served out of the public folder and almost everything else was done with Rails. The last week is all done with Node.js.

YumHacker uses Rails as an API on the backend, and Backbone,js for the front end.

Zube uses Node.js and Backbone.js.

Edit: Here's a blog post I wrote after finishing the 180 Websites project that talks more about that. - http://blog.jenniferdewalt.com/post/62998082815/after-180-we...

Awesome, thanks for the link. I'm looking forward to looking at more of your projects!

I had a lot of fun working on the 180 Websites project. It was grueling at times but pushing something live everyday was super satisfying. My favorites are Electro Bounce, How We're Feeling and Elevations.

I love working on Zube now. It's awesome to be able to make a product that helps developers.
