New Ruby on Rails Plugin- Launching Soon has launched
“Launching Soon” is a new plugin that VinSol has developed.
Working on client projects, we saw a pattern – the client owns a domain, which is either parked or has a blog running on it, and then they commission us to build an application. While the application is being developed, they want us to setup a landing page on the server, with a couple of links – to the blog etc. and want to capture email addresses of people who are interested in the service that the application would offer.
We actually found a few ready to use options for this. This php based paid script was one and there is also a free launching soon module in PHP/Jquery.
However, we did not find anything for Rails so Satish set out to write a plugin for it. Then we thought it would be good to integrate it with Campaign Monitor , since most of our clients use this service for running their email campaigns. And subsequently Satish extended it to add Mail Chimp integration also.
Give it a spin and send us your feedback via the LightHouse project.

Working with Vinsol has been one of the most rewarding and productive collaborations I've ever had in the technology industry. Manik is an intelligent and honest engineer with a great faculty for open and clear communication, and his team include some of the swiftest and keenest developers I've ever had the pleasure to work with. They're great value for money, excellent people who are a joy to know and interact with, and above all they really know their stuff
