Show HN: EasyTribute – A SaaS Platform for Minimalist Online Memorials

Recently, one of my family members passed away, and as a software engineer, I felt compelled to use my Python/Django skills to create something meaningful in his honor. I discovered nice platforms for creating memorial pages, like Cake, Forever Missed, Much Loved, and so forth. However, given my mental state at the time, I felt there were too many steps and overwhelming options to get this done quickly.

So, I turned to Carrd.com and created a very basic page with a link to send emails to my wife and me, where you could share condolences, support messages, book recommendations, and so forth.

After that, I thought, "why not create a platform to build these kinds of pages in just one step and start receiving support from friends and family without feeling pressured to answer the messages?"

And after two weeks of coding, I created EasyTribute.com

So, feel free to take a look, and thank you all for your support and feedback.
