A few weeks ago, we announced a complete revamp of this website. Additional features have now been added.
A website for FileMaker developers
For developers and for those, who want to become one. Our website is the vehicle for our mission. fmstarter.com lists itself as «Resources for FileMaker developers. For entrepreneurs, who build what others buy». A clean website with useful functions for those looking for easy-to-understand FileMaker solutions. After the initial relaunch a few weeks ago, we now started to expand the functionality. That second phase of development is what this post is about.
A word about our goal: We want to share our experience, as we have profited from others tremendously. However, we don’t aim to provide the most technically advanced solutions. Many already do that successfully. Our focus is more on the Low-Code-aspect of FileMaker, making it possible for solopreneurs to get their next FileMaker project off the ground. We are here to help you help yourself, with proven functionality and concepts that are easy to understand and implement.
This means that solutions provided have been thoroughly tested, frequently simplified over time, to make the tools reliable for as many types of developers as possible. Have a look around on this website to see what we mean by that.
Now to the new options we implemented:
Ratings and reviews
We want to you to make good choices about our products. Feedback and insight from actual buyers will help fellow developers to make informed decisions about our products and services. That is why all products in our shop now have a review option. Review and rating is open to all buyers. You must be logged in to provide your feedback.
Do you already own a product? Now is the time to provide valuable feedback. Thank you for your effort!
FM Starter Newsletter
We have reactivated our newsletter. While there was a newsletter option in our latest website, it was hardly used. This now will change. The newsletter provides an automated monthly summary of new posts. This will include posts about new sample files, add-ons and generic texts about FileMaker and developing, as well as support texts for our products.
By providing a newsletter, we can offer more information for those interested. As you might have noticed, we only send short emails, which are focussed on the products you purchased or items you downloaded. Those might be rare occasions. The newsletter option is different, as it has more benefits: We can now write more regularly also about generic topics and make it useful to more people, while those who like that information can subscribe if they like what they read.
On the newsletter page, we also explain how we structure our communication.
