Hey everyone, Josh here the creator. As a developer, I’m always looking out for an emerging market trend on which to bootstrap my own SaaS product. This is since market awareness and timing are often so critical, on top of execution skill of course!

So I built Trennd. Under the hood it continually monitors the web for interesting keywords & topics, classifies them using Google Trends data and packages everything as a neat web app where other people can contribute too.

The app itself is built with the Next.js React framework along with Express, Bootstrap and MongoDB. Next.js was new to me, but made sense since it comes with so much out of the box, including server side rendering.

Let me know if you have any questions, and any feedback is much appreciated!
