Resources: On making side hustles and extra income
This is a complement post from the original “Using Carrd.co and Gumroad for side hustles and making extra income”.
You don’t need to know code to build something online. For componetsui.com I used tools that required little to no coding experience to launch the project and stitched them together:
Tech Tools
- Carrd. Building the landing page
- Gumroad. Payment processor
- Figma. For designing landing pages, icons, illustrations. Making design systems to keep the design consistent.
- Fathom Analytics. I didn't want to use google analytics since I hate those cookie banners and want to be conscious about people’s privacy so I decided to use Fathom. I also like to support indie makers as much as I can.
- ConvertKit. For building and email list and for sending updates on the project
