A couple of days ago I’ve made [Addrow](https://addrow.io) publicly available. Addrow is an app to make invoicing simple and even a little fun again. It has been a quiet launch for now, as I’m still tweaking some details.

Made for personal use at first
------------------------------

Addrow was supposed to be a small invoice editor tool for my own personal use. That got out of hand quickly, positively though. Once the editor was done, I wanted to be able to add payment links automatically (using payment provider [Mollie](https://mollie.com)). And then I thought it would be nice to have automated payment reminders send out. After adding those features, I started thinking about making Addrow available to other users as well.

A couple of users have been (and still are) providing me with useful feedback which I would like to take a look at, and possibly implement before I do some marketing and get the word out. However, as it is, Addrow is perfectly usable and if you’d like, you can create an account.

It’s about invoicing
--------------------

Addrow is dedicated to invoicing and aims to keep things simple. It is not an extensive administration tool. For example, it doesn’t include a way to manage company expenses. That might be something to think about in the future. For now, I think the focus should be on the invoicing process. That’s sufficient for me, but I think also for lots of other small companies.

The technical bits
------------------

The site is built using [Laravel](https://laravel.com) and [VueJS](https://vuejs.org/). It’s the first time I’m using [Laravel Forge](https://forge.laravel.com) for deployment, which so far has been a great experience. It’s also the first time I’m using [Digital Ocean](https://digitalocean.com) for hosting, and again, so far, it’s been great.
