Whoops, I seem to cannot edit my thread anymore. Is there any chance I can still adjust the title?

What have you built for yourself?

It just struck me recently that it's so awesome to build something and be able to use it yourself. This exact idea actually got me in mobile development more than a decade ago - idea that I could build anything and use it on my phone.Recently, I've started to learn a new language, got myself a Duolingo, everything went really well. However once levels got harder, I kept forgetting correct...

Re:Asking your customers what they want doesn't work on Sunday December 31, 2023 @10:31AM (#38824697)
For the last 5 or so years, I'm building mobile POC/MVP apps for my clients. I also launched several startups myself (all failed eventually). 2/3 generated some revenue. Main lessons learned and pits fallen into:

- Collect feedback from the user. Once all feedback is collected, try to find patterns and understand, will solution really solve anything and if it will - how much work it takes vs how much value overall biz gets. If it doesn't bring any value/revenue - might even consider scraping feature out to not bring more tech debt along the way

- Focus on only things that matter. Pretty much every single client I work with ends up implementing features that seems nice, look good, but brings little to no value to the overall biz. Feature just was built in just for the sake of having a `bigger and more functional product`

- Be aware if feedback comes from payed vs free user. It's very easy to focus on wrong things as ^

Overall, I keep seeing feedback collection going well. However the conclusion from it - just getting messy.

Re:Ask HN: Has anyone hired a freelance developer for a MVP? on Monday January 11, 2021 @08:54AM (#25728856)
Ha, very interesting. I am on the boat of offering my services for MVP building.

As previous entrepreneur with some failed startups and heavy software experience, I've realised my skills are well needed in the market.

I think hardest part here is that clients for MVP has very high expectations and very little money for it. And the whole balance part falls apart.

Besides that - I really enjoy it. It's amazing to work on different ideas constantly.
