    #007 - Favorite Tools & Services

    Episode Notes I've been out of town and unable to work on my own indie projects for the last few weeks, so I thought this would be a good time to do an episode about some of my favorite tools & services that I use with my own projects. None of these have paid me or are associated with me, I just like them!

    #006 - Why Indie Projects?

    Episode Notes Heads up, this episode is more about the Indie side of Indielixer. Talk about coding and Elixir will be back in the next episode! In this episode I talk about why I believe in Indie projects and make an argument for doing one yourself. I explain why I chose Forte as my current Indie project and use it to discuss how and why you might choose one project idea over another. As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
