Special thanks to tyiu (nprofile…rkqj) PABLOF7z (nprofile…n8d4) JeffG (nprofile…7zu2) and fiatjaf (nprofile…y27r) for their invaluable guidance during my 3-month journey working on POWR. Their support has been essential.
POWR isn't close to what I hope it’ll become (yet), but as Pablo wisely told me: ship early! Look for the TestFlight and Zapstore release early next week, but please have patience with the release and updates… I’m a Nostr enthusiast, not a dev, and working full time as a physician.
Devs: I'd love your feedback on my NIP proposal for workout event kinds, and if you’d like to contribute please reach out!
POWR On! 💪
