Savage, Minnesota
LawnChairCo is the home for software built the way good neighbors solve problems — out in the open, for the people nearby, with no more fuss than the work actually requires.
LawnChairCo grew out of a neighborhood tradition called Driveway Beers. When someone on the street sets a chair out in their driveway — usually around happy hour — that's the signal: come on over. Neighbors drift in and out. There's news to catch up on and, just as often, real talk about whatever problems people are wrestling with. The driveway becomes a place where things get figured out — collectively, casually, without anybody calling a meeting.
That's the spirit LawnChairCo builds software in. The best projects here start the same way: a real, local problem, talked through with the people it affects, solved in a way that's plain enough for anyone to understand.
It's a Minnesota outfit, and it shows. Ten thousand lakes' worth of easygoing, look-out-for-each-other sensibility runs underneath everything here — unhurried, useful, and made for the community it sits in.
A community garage-sale listing site. Neighbors post upcoming sales — address, date, a short description, a couple of photos. Buyers browse what's happening this weekend and plan a route. Listings quietly auto-expire after the sale is over, so the site stays fresh on its own.
