The depression that eats me up every night knowing that I’m 3 components away from launching my app. Been sitting for 1 year and a few months now, stuck because we don’t have a document viewer yet, a video viewer and a file upload component. It really hurts so much being 3 components away from a financial breakthrough. Been trying to learn coding just so I could develop these components, even tried using Ai but it just feels impossible, I keep getting something wrong. Someone just make these components and upload the to the components marketplace, some of us are really willing to buy those components and give back to that developer when things go well upon launch date 🥺🤝 I know this sounds desperate, but I hope someone understands me. Just a teenager with big dreams which is being blocked by those components mentioned ---

A doc viewer which will enable user to view pdf and docs files directly from the collections. A video player which doesn’t allow downloads and allows users to view videos of all formats directly from the collections not just from a url And lastly, a file upload which enables users to upload files directly to the collections ---
