Really like it, hope to see more stores added and would be nice to sync my wishlist with the website too

MikBok117, you have a great start, and I appreciate you.
My main request: On the Games and/or Deals list page, would it be possible to add a SG (steamgifts) status icon for each game (*, **, F, na) meaning: (15%, 0%, Full=100%, not available)? I have not found any other website that provides that status in their result lists, so this could make your site stand out above any other.

MikBok117, you'd need to get data from steamgifts.com (ie, I know entering a steam's digital number for any game in https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/new will return a result that indicates *, **, etc). Note: Data from any other web site would not be good, since they often do not return the same result as steamgifts.com.

Wow, looks amazing and runs mostly smoothly. Great job! I am a software engineer by trade, but I do backend server application development. Web development is a whole different beast, so I commend you for the work you have done! Definitely a great project to have on your portfolio. If you are in the US, let me know if you are interested in a job. I may be able to send a recommendation. Not sure which other countries I can refer for, but I can check :)

Thank you so much, it means a lot to hear this from fellow software engineer, you made my day really joyful.
I also do backend server application development most of the time at my 9-5 job, which I have been working at for the last few months.
Thanks for the offer, I apricate it, however I am South-East Europe based and currently not looking for change of jobs, since I am still Junior and wanna learn as much as I can before thinking about anything else. If I ever consider relocating to US I will contact you :)

No problem at all! Definitely get some experience under your belt if you already have a job. I don't know if my company has operations in the eastern half of Europe, but I do know we have some European operations. Keep up the great work, and best of luck in your career.

Hi,
As someone else mentioned we don't allow here links to re-seller websites. And offers on your website link directly to re-seller offers.
Is there any chance to remove those offers from your website and stick to authorized sellers like fanatical or steam? Otherwise linking to your website will break our guidelines.

Didn't know this information, thanks for letting me know and sorry for breaking the rules. I worked hard to have those stores on my site, it would be shame to delete them now. I will remove the link of my website from the discussion, I hope that's ok.

Hello fellow Steam Gifters,
I have been working on a personal project that I would like to share with you. Little backstory first.
Around 1 year ago, I graduated from university in the field of computer science and engineering and for my graduation project/thesis I developed a web site that tracks Steam game prices across a variety of stores, including Steam and third-party resellers, the site also includes other features that I will describe below.
Initially this was only a local private project (it wasn't hosted/published on the internet), but after graduation I decided to buy a domain name and server and to see if my project would work well in the real world. After learning deployment of web applications, fixing bugs, improving some features, I was ready to share my project with the world.
There are still bugs (some store price checkers stopped working), but I brought this project to a state where I am proud to share it with you, I hope you won't be too harsh on me :)
Here is list of all features on the site:
Link: EasyGamePrices (I removed the direct link to the site, because I was broking a rule I didn't know existed)
If you wanna check my site anyway you can search the name on your favorite search engine (Google, Bing, etc...)
I am aware that there are already existing better similar sites, this is more of a hobby project than anything else that I like working on in my free time.
For making this project I took inspiration from SteamGifts, SteamTrades, Reddit and other game price aggregators sites.
Thank you for your time, here is small Train, also there are active steam giveaways in the giveaways [section] (Link removed, if you wanna check out the giveaways on the site, search the name of the site + 'giveaways').
For my next project I plan to recreate ItsTooHard, since the site doesn't exist anymore and SG puzzle makers are looking for something similar.
Edit 1: Didn't expect this kind of awesome reception. Thank you everyone for visiting my site, the compliments and for giving me feedback on how to improve it. It really made my day. I will try to improve the site and hopefully it will contain all of the suggested features in the comments.
Edit 2: Links removed, I'm sorry, I didn't know I was breaking any rules.
Edit 3: I will keep you updated when the new features that the SG members suggested are implemented on the site.
