Announcing the Bottle Splitter​

The bottle splitter is something we have a constant need for. Often, we want to share drams from a bottle but need to organize how to share it.

Imagine a site that allows:

  • A unique URL for the bottle split
  • What drams and sizes are available
  • People can sign up for a slot

Individuals can:

  • Sign up with other providers (e.g. Google, Github, Microsoft)
  • Sign up to splits
  • Share address details if necessary

Current work​

The URL for this is at https://splits.steeldram.com/

Right now this is pre-alpha and development is ongoing. Hosting will use free tiers so no one is out of pocket.

Meeting on April 16th 2024
