Quick bit of back story: Myself and a co-worker founded Vetter last year. I had been learning rails, and he had the idea for the project.

It has now been about 9 months, and we've learned a lot, are profitable, and fully-bootstrapped (aside from a small prize at the end of start-up weekend).

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

could you please elaborate that a bit? Is this your first project since you you were learning rails? Is rails your first language?

[onBlueDot]

Yes, rails is my first language (aside from knowing a little bit of HTML/CSS beforehand).

I used railstutorial.org, railsforzombies, etc. and spun off from that to get Vetter up and running.

I've definitely developed a passion for development and will continue to pursue it. I currently spend an hour or two each day strictly on studying, since I still have a lot of foundational knowledge to learn (I can get things done, but not necessarily in a best-practice type way)

I went to university for film production, ha!

Sorry to nitpick, Rails is a framework, Ruby is the language :)

[onBlueDot]

Haha, fair enough. In either case, Ruby is my first language, and rails is the framework which I opted for~
