Cool tool! Just a suggestion - building something like this for Zendesk (or any help center) would be an absolute game-changer!

I love Vue as well. The problem is that I haven’t found a good way to fit Vue in with an existing Rails app without it resorting to JavaScript hell. Stimulus looks interesting because it already fits in with Turbolinks.

looks fantastic!

i had actually built something similar a few years ago, but ended up abandoning it as I never quite had the time nor passion to see it through.

Hey HN, I built HiCoach to make finding fitness plans easier. You can sort by days per week, type of fitness, and your level of experience. I'm working on adding more plans to the service, so if you have any recommendations, I'd love to hear them.

The site is extremely simple: it uses a php script on the backend and Vue on the frontend. I actually typically develop in Rails, but thought it was going to be overkill for this sort of project. I'm certainly not the world's greatest PHP developer, so it actually was quite fun learning the quirks of PHP (once again).

Why is that? I realize I should probably provide my sources at the bottom, but everything was derived from personal experience and research.

If you have something specific to point out, I'd be happy to provide you a source for it.

I guess the key that I'm trying to get at here is find a diet approach that works for you.

Low-carb diets "trick" you (again, I'm going to use that phrase) into eating less calories. When you eat less calories, you will lose weight. So, sure, it's great that it worked for you, but there's easier ways for most people to lose weight.

What other inaccuracies were you talking about?

I should probably be more clear. In overall health, fats, carbs, and protein do matter. However, I find it's hard to convince beginners to make drastic changes to their diet.

So thats why I recommend tracking only calories at first. Get used to tracking food and hit your weight goal. Then, when already used to being mindful of your diet, you can adapt it to be more overall healthy.

Wow, thanks for the awesome feedback!

You have a good point about snacking. I put it underneath "Tactics for eating" because I was trying to say it's a tactic that has worked for me. Obviously, yes, everyone is different, and I'll try and rephrase that to make my point clear.

Hydration. Good point as well. I should touch on this.

On strength vs muscle growth. My goal with Hart's Guide was to show a workout plan that didn't require a bunch of time in the gym, and lifting for strength is better for that goal, as it's more time-efficient. I was trying to simplify, but yeah, I can agree that I should add a little more information on alternatives.

FAQ Information. Great idea, I'll definitely add a section for that.

Hey HN!

I'd love to hear what you think, especially about my writing style, as I realize I'm not the world's best writer.

I tried to keep the design simple, and somewhat crude. I wanted something that looked different than the majority of fitness websites/blogs today. But let me know if I achieved that or if it could use some work.
