I am quite surprised by the amount of negative comments here. My immediate reaction after watching the video is that this is pretty cool and I want to try it, even though I expect issues given that it is the first service of this kind in London.

How did u grow the twitter followers at the start?

My experience: just try to land a programmer job first, even if the company/job looks shitty.

I only had an Economics degree with no formal IT education and now I had a software dev job.

Like you, I was self-taught and only had built some personal projects, but it was enough to land me my first IT job in a shitty startup. And then you can have easier time finding other software dev roles.

Haha I am a local Hong Konger. My father was born in Macau so I have a portugal passport.

Basically I just want to go somewhere to start fresh... not really career prospect/salary motivated.

London looks a good option to me because its english-speaking, I have relatives living there, I can work there visa-free (now its complicated due to brexit), and I love english football haha.

Hi guys, can I also ask in general is it hard to find a programming job in London now?

My Background: a javascript (node/react) dev with 2 yrs of exp, a EU(portugal) passport holder living in Hong Kong

I have to admit it's not obvious to me at first. Especially for the second ad, you need to have good knowledge of Chinese literature to know the story behind the poem.

But once I read the explanation it became quite clear since there isn't really other ways to interpret it.

Actually, HK independence is deliberately mentioned a lot in Weibo.

They want to paint the protesters as pro-HK independence but in fact this is not one of our five demands.

And of course they block all the stuffs that make the HK gov and police look bad.

As a HKer, I think it is likely to be deliberate.

A lot of big corporations/wealthy people had ads on HK newspaper front page explicitly condemning the protesters. Li Ka Shing could have done the same but he didn't.

It is indeed a problem. I am still thinking how to make these two pages work together.. maybe merge the first page into the color picker in second page.

Thanks for your feedback!

Didn't think about that haha. Will add a MIT license later. Thanks!

It's really a good point. The graphic now can't really reflects how well do the colors go together.

Apart from graphics, I am thinking maybe adding some sample UI/charts too...

Thanks for your feedback!
