Introducing Acme 🧽 🧽

Inspired by the exquisitely sick & twisted mind of Soren Iverson, I present Acme.

It's your favourite rental marketplace, just with a new payment method: guests stay for free if they clean for lazy & messy hosts 🙃

How many hours would you be willing to clean for to get a free stay?? 💀

Sarcasm ensues 👇



Acme works just like the Marketplace-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named; you can browse listings, filter by country, check out the profile & host calendar, and act shocked when you see the outrageous cleaning fees...




But, Acme now brings the power of "Cleaning Mode"(🧽,🧽)™

Toggle the switch, and the $£€¥฿ costs are replaced with how many hours you need to clean for to get a free stay.

"Acme's visionary unicorn founder turned cleaning into a currency 🤑" (TechCrunch, 18 November 2023)


Acme also features the new AcmeCal6000™®© 📆

This lightweight & fully customisable calendar component is named for the number of times I punched a wall trying to get it to work properly.

(It's a simplified younger sibling to the calendar I've been building for my actual startup, Arrive)



AcmeCal6000™®© generates dynamically with just a few custom functions (thanks GPT-4 ✨)

Set a 'CalendarMonths' parameter for the required number of future months - all contained in a minimally designed scrolling layout with conditional highlighting & date picking features.

I needed a full calendar with minimal code for Arrive, but couldn't find the right one - so built it from scratch myself.

Fully customisable. It's just normal text, containers, & grids. You can change the colours, fonts, sizings, etc.

I'll put it on the marketplace soon!
