I just finished my 100 hours project and wanted to share it with the 100Devs community. DevLeads (devleads.site) is a complete, self-hosted lead management system I built specifically for freelance web developers. It handles everything from initial contact to final payment.(cont.) #100Devs #webdev

(cont.) When you self-host, you own your data. No monthly SaaS fees eating into your profit. No vendor lock-in. No worrying about some company changing their pricing or shutting down. You deploy it once with Docker and it's yours. #100Devs #webdev

(cont.) Leads come into your system in a few different ways. If someone contacts you through one of the web form components on your site, their information automatically gets added to your dashboard and triggers automated email notifications through Nodemailer. #100Devs #webdev

(cont.) Once a lead is in your system, you've got all their contact info, business details, what service they want, their budget, etc. You can track them through your pipeline with statuses like new, contacted, in progress, closed/won, closed/lost. #100Devs #webdev

(cont.) When you're ready to send a proposal, contract, or invoice, you use the built-in form builder with a Markdown editor. It comes loaded with professional templates for contracts, proposals, invoices, cold calling scripts, cold emails, etc. #100Devs #webdev
