Show HN: Print invitation envelopes at home from a CSV file
helloenvelope.comI’ve been working on a website to help people print their own invitation envelopes for weddings and other events!
It was inspired by my own painful experience of wanting to design and print custom envelopes for my wedding, where I was jumping between different software, learning how mail merge works, messing with printer settings, etc.
So I built helloenvelope.com - which lets users upload a CSV file of their recipients, type in their return address, and then download a PDF of invitations to print on their own, or purchase to have them printed in our design studio.
Additional Background: I’m a product designer with ten years of professional experience making a career change into software engineering.
This is my first fullstack project to help me in the comms portion of my engineering interviews, and it was a great learning experience!
The stack for the project is node+express, mongo for database, PDFkit for pdf generation, and stripe for payments.
