Two years ago, OnlineOrNot started as a little toy app I built in an afternoon to see what it's like using the Next.js framework, to see if a URL is down from around the world. I gave myself a week to turn that toy into a SaaS people could pay for. It looked like this when it went live: It wasn't ready for real users, but that didn't matter. I had something out there, that people could sign-up for, tell me what they were expecting, and how OnlineOrNot fell short of their expectations.
