A few days, ago, I posted [1] on Show HN. It was my first serious project and one that I had decided to actually ask people for feedback. While I did get a few encouraging words and some criticism which I've been working on a lot, I've been getting VERY few downloads (pip installs, here) in the past few days. I'm talking an average of 1-2 or maybe if I'm lucky, 5 a day. It's been only getting worse in the past week - especially in the past few days, and it doesn't look like having too much scope further on. How do I come to terms that something I've worked so hard on for the past month is probably dwindling down? I want to learn from this, and it gets very hard to see it go and accept it's a failed one. Thanks for any advice. [2]'s my project [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27782397 [2] https://github.com/BrainStormYourWayIn/sie

Sorry, but this is really not suitable for much. There is so much wrong with this implementation that I’m not sure where to start. Every call to your template writes to a single file called “index.html”[1] which is then copied to another file when “written”[2]? You also print exceptions rather than allowing people to handle them as they wish. The idea is nice, but try and remove all file system calls and do this entirely in-memory. This may mean completely changing the API. 1. https://github.com/BrainStormYourWayIn/sierra/blob/main/src/... 2. https://github.com/BrainStormYourWayIn/sierra/blob/main/src/...
