Trying something new (at least for me): validation before building! 💡

Testing my idea on Reddit, collecting emails for my waitlist

Goal: 50 emails! 🎯

Thanks to the #buildinpublic community, I've decided to abandon my project

I've learned some valuable lessons that I'll apply to future projects

Overall, it's a small victory - I won't waste time on an unproductive process and I have gained useful insights for future endeavors
What's the ultimate skill swap? 🔄

Unpopular opinion among #indiehackers

Working full-time as a software engineer will likely earn you significantly more money than bootstrapping your own project

Change my mind

Dear #indiehackers

What was your main motivation for building your first project?

#buildinpublic
I hope that next week I'll be able to share the landing page for my upcoming project with all of you!

Exciting times ahead! 🚀

Building a product for your own problem has perks: deep understanding, passion-driven development, and tailored solutions

But don't forget market validation!

#buildinpublic
Don't spend time looking for the perfect solution to the current problem

Instead, use a tool or solution that you already know and have tested before

Afterward, learn from that experience and apply it to the next issue

#buildinpublic
Let's take time to rest and recharge today

Remember, the best progress is made when we're fueled by a clear mind and determination

Let's crush those weekend goals! 🚀

When you start building your audience on Twitter, it feels like you're tweeting into the void 🌌

Change your attitude 🔄

Treat it as your diary 📔

Everything takes longer than you think, especially in the #indiehackers world

Instead of pondering which version of your feature will be the best one, show them to your customers and ask for their input 🔍

At the end of the day, you're building this to solve your customers' problems, not your own🌟

Is it possible to validate your business idea before building anything when you don't have a social presence and many followers?

Does your employer (if you have one) have a problem with your side project?

Should they be worried or happy?

Does anyone know of any SaaS products that have a subscription price higher than $100/month?

Finally I gave up 😑

I don't have time in the MVP stage to create Figma designs. I went straight to developing the app UI using pre-made @tailwindui components

#buildinpublic
Creating even a basic design 🎨 for my project is really painful (I'm a software engineer).

This is the moment when I truly realize that being a solo-founder is a lonely game 🥶

How do you, #indiehackers, deal with tasks that are completely new to you?

#buildinpublic
As a first-time founder, you have to understand one thing:

👉your CMO is more important than your CTO

(assuming you are probably the CEO, CMO, CTO, and CFO all at the same time)

#buildinpublic lessons learned 🚧

Create simple designs of your product at the beginning:

✅It's easier for you to build
✅You have at least something to show on the pre-launch landing page
Seeking progress, not perfection! ✨

Don't be a victim of your own perfectionism, especially during MVP development. Remember, it's about delivering value quickly
