I currently work a 4 day week and enjoy having a spare day for projects or exercise :)

Yeah I believe many jobs can be done in less time with the same productivity leading to healthier and happier employees.

You can!

I’m working on filling out the job board with more opportunities and many are remote. I’ve had several people reach out to me to say they’ve landed a job through the site.

I send out a weekly email newsletter that you can sign up for to stay informed if you want.

A special indicator to show remote jobs and a filter would be a nice addition. I like the overall design of the website, very good job 😊

That's a great idea, thanks for that. I'll work that in as soon as I can.

If anyone else has any suggestions or feature requests, I'm all ears!

Sorry to resurrect this thread but I'm working on a new project where I want a simple, clean and responsive { insert_sport } competition 'directory'.

Everything about your project is a perfect example! What stack did you use?

Cool! For this, I used Django with a bit of Vue.js for interactive page functionality and Tailwind .CSS for the styles

I'm really happy with how the stack worked out.

I used the wiki.js project at work and it definitely has that Vue vibe man!
Thanks for the response :)

Update: I’ve added weekly digest email automation! This should ensure that I get that weekly email out more regularly.

I used the Mailjet API for this. I definitely recommend it!

Christmas update:

I've just finished migrating the 30 Hour Jobs blog over to the main site. It was previously running on a separate subdomain as a Ghost site.

I'm still using Ghost as a headless CMS to power the content but I'm pulling in the content from the API to render the pages manually. My goal is to improve SEO but also gain more control over the look and feel of the blog and also integrate it into the site more closely.

 

[Adam]

Awesome work, Nick! Great choice. How are you finding Ghost as a headless platform? I've been intrigued by Ghost for a while but just not my usual stack or hosting environment.

 

[nick]

I use Ghost as a headless content platform for a couple sites. I like it. The writing experience is good and it has everything I need.

The only caveat is that you must use their taxonomy. You can’t build anything you like, it must be used to power a publication. So a blog or news site with articles, pages (evergreen content or landing pages), authors, and tags.

If you stick to those entities, then it’s fantastic!

Update:

30 Hour Jobs now has a payment system up and running! I used Stripe for this which was a great experience to use as always - it evens supports new cards with "3D Auth"!

Use coupon code WEBWIDE to post a job for just $39 USD for 30 days 😉
