Source Code

The Doinfine repo will be reused for the new codebase, built from the ground up. However, many talented people helped contribute to this code and I want to give them a way to download it if they ever wanted to use it again.

Doinfine is a passion project that was built by a team to help teams create a team charter and celebrate wins within the team. Doinfine also includes a β€œfine” feature.

Doinfine’s Lifetime

2022 - Launch

Doinfine launched for the first time in 2022 and onboarded its first team. A couple months later, it had 3 teams using it. This version of Doinfine was later dubbed as the POC (Proof of Concept).

Team

2023 - Entelect Tech Accelerator

Doinfine enrolled and won Entelect’s Tech Accelerator in 2023 thanks to the hard work of the team. While not all of the team members embarked on the next journey of monitizing Doinfine, winning Tech Accelerator would not have been possible without their help

Team

2024 - Becoming Market Fit

After winning Tech Accelerator, the next mission was to become market fit. While not all of the Tech Accelerator team members could join on this journey, some did. Doinfine has gone through some iterations of improving, perfecting and ultimately trying to figure out what people want and will pay for.

Team

2025 and onward - Sunset

A lot of effort has been put in to trying to get Doinfine market fit, however, it is not successful. There are many learnings that the team can take and apply, but the team has become occuppied with other projects and priorities.

While Doinfine still has a couple of teams using it, the main reason for sunsetting it is to shift focus to other projects. Doinfine will still be available for the existing teams and will allow new sign ups, however, there will not be any more development on it.

A small support system is available for bug reports.
