LaunchClash
LaunchClash is a daily product launch directory and discovery platform for makers and early adopters. It aggregates new product listings, surfaces top daily launches, and provides community-driven signals such as votes and rankings.
Key features
- Daily launch feed and countdown: shows "Top Products Launching Today" with a countdown timer (data-countdown) for daily voting windows.
- Product listings: compact product cards with images, descriptions, categories, pricing tags, and action links.
- Community voting grid: a large grid UI for placing votes and a per-product vote button with product IDs and launch timestamps (data-product-id, data-launch-date).
- Search and discovery: site-level search forms (desktop and mobile), filters by category and pricing, and a curated product list panel.
- Responsive UX: header navigation, mobile dropdowns, and sticky UI elements for consistent cross-device behavior.
- Administrative states: visual indicators for connection status and end-of-day overlays for closed voting.
Technical details
- Lightweight static assets: SVG logo, PNG favicons, and lazy-loaded product images for performance.
- Semantic links and SEO: canonical link, Open Graph and Twitter cards for rich link previews.
- Client-side behavior: uses data attributes (data-countdown, data-product-id, data-launch-date) to drive timers and voting interactions.
