Great product! Curious to know why you guys chose to offer quarterly pricing? ?Makers

@thesameerk The Quarter license is for people with only one project. We are pretty sure three months are more than enough to finish a project.
Hello Product Hunters! 👋
We're happy to announce Slides 5 is here! 🎉This version comes with tons of new features and functionality. Our customers tested the new Slides for a month and were happy with the changes! So, today we are offering the public release.

- Fully synced to the code public Slides 5 Figma Document (sorry, no PS version this time).
- New jQuery 3.4.1.
- Night mode added for Generator view. 🌃
- Flex Grid redesigned with a fixed gap in mind. All grids replaced with flex grids.
- Reduced loading speed by removing deprecated styles and plugins. 🚀
- Slides with video popups load faster than before with the new loading process.
- Added shortcuts and improved the performance of the Code Editor.
- And more... see the changelog for details. 🤗
This is the best if you want launch main and side projects with pristine HTML5 code and focus the freed up coding hours on design flow and content. Have been a user for 2,5 years so far and it keeps getting better. For example Google page speed ranking is a steady 90-100.
There's about 100 slides to choose from, hopefully the team will release 20 more in the coming months now that the v5 platform is out.
@juhslk Thank you for your review and support the Slides project during these years.
We'll release more features in 2020 🤗
No examples from the home, have to sign up to do anything.
Please look at Carrd for zero friction time to value
Hi, @timshnaider! We will add more templates in the future, thank you for the suggestions. Carrd is an awesome example, we'll look into it.
I've been using Slides for some time and it is simply the best tool for developers who like the design, but have only the coding knowledge. Very intuitive and simple tool.
Free version is too limited, there is not even enough sections to build a landing page.
@valdecarpentrie We offer the free version to test the Slides functionality and make a decision about the subscription plan, and estimate the time you need to build a project.
Looks good - what if we wanted to use one site as a landing page for our domains for sale? Do we need to pay for each page (url) and where will they be hosted?
@david_diamond Hey! No, you pay only for subscription, you can create unlimited pages and websites.
@monstercritic1 Sergey can you attempt a slides <---> shopify liquid conversion and make a video? I think that will be amazing.
@vineet_sinha We will look into it and come back with the solution. Currently, none of us is a Shopify customer, so that's would be tricky to figure out.
I've loved and built many things on Slides before, but can I use Slides with Shopify? That will be a game changer!
@vineet_sinha At least, you can integrate a Shopify button anywhere in your Slides template: https://www.shopify.com/buy-button
@monstercritic1 @david_diamond no but I reckon it won't be too hard to add a button. I added acuity scheduling and that's a touch more demanding.
I wonder how hard it will be to convert Slides into Shopify's Liquid template.
love it! only thing would be if you guys add a small "ecommerce" integration, that would be dope. Something like Stripe or paypal or somewhat to integrate simple payment processing. (I'm already a paying customer from slides 4)
@marcelo_moyano Thank you for support and your suggestion!
@monstercritic1 Sounds good, no?
Hello @andrianv
This is nice product. And very beautiful designs of blocks.
We would like to invite you to join our Page Build called with help to build a Website for Shopify and WordPress.
If your layout can publish on our system that would be very happy and bring more profit to clients.
Thanks
@kientt Hey! Thank you. Send me more details on email info@designmodo.com. Remember, Slides is a SaaS application and is available only on Designmodo.
@designmodo @andrianv Yes, I know that and I will send you detail email, our product also a SAAS too. We can convert from the layout export from your App and make it compatible on our product for WordPress and Shopify yet. We build this app base from our Page Builder for WordPress currently have 100k+ active installations, but we found the pain of clients is don't have enough Pre-made layouts to ready to use yet.
I've been using Slides for some time and it is simply the best tool for developers who like the design, but have only the coding knowledge. Very intuitive and amazin tool.
Very nice and polished product. A bit confused by the pricing though. As I currently only have one project in mind, I'm hesitant to take the plunge on a quarterly subscription. Have you considered offering pricing on a per-project basis?
@jim_silverman If you have just one project in mind, we recommend you to take advantage of the quarterly plan. We consider three months are enough to start and finish a project.
We don't remove the projects after the expiration of the subscription, so you can always come back to your project.
