I wanted to build something where a kid could actually make a real book, not just scribble on an iPad and forget about it. Fox & Quill lets them pick backgrounds, drag stickers around, write their story page by page, and then order a printed copy that shows up in the mail. The illustration packs are all hand-drawn watercolor sets, which was a whole thing to coordinate. Probably the most fun I've had wiring up a Stripe integration, if that's even possible.
