fair, even though the API key is only stored in sessionStorage, or localStorage if you choose to save it, I understand why people still would not feel comfortable pasting it into a random website

I recently decided to take on a personal #buildinpublic challenge where I set out to build and launch a SaaS product in just 10 days. It had been quite a while since I’d built a product from scratch, and I wanted to push myself to create something new this year.
I’ll be showing you the entire process of building a SaaS product from:
ideation development, and launch
But I won’t be giving any advice or pretending to know what I’m doing, since this is my first subscription-based product. Instead, I’ll simply be transparent with the development process and end results so that you can learn from both my successes and failures.
I hope you enjoy it, and I am curious to know what you think. If you have any suggestions or questions about the product, please feel free to share them. Thank you!

Hey there! I recently took on a personal challenge: building and launching a SaaS in just 10 days. It was quite a journey, to be honest.
The end result is aiCarousels.com! I've been documenting the process on video and posting it on YouTube.
You can binge-watch the entire saga right here https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPE50XS270Byz8o_jTURu...
My goal with this 10-day challenge was to hold myself accountable. I had a tendency to keep building more features and saying "what if I added this?" or "what if I added that?" But this time around, I wanted to resist that urge and focus on keeping it simple yet functional by having a time limit.
But I dont't give any advice or pretend to know what I was doing since it was my first subscription-based product. Instead, I simply was transparent with the development process and end results so that you could learn from both my successes and failures.
I hope you enjoy it, and I am curious to know what you think. If you have any suggestions or questions about the product, please feel free to share them. Thank you!

I felt like a fraud because I thought, “I’m not a good developer. I am just a designer.” It took some time to change my mindset.
I’m sure many of you can relate to feelings of self-doubt and impostor syndrome — I know I can. But I’m proof that you don’t need to be a “proper” developer. All you need is an idea that people find useful, and the determination to see it through.

Disclaimer: this is by no means a guide or advice on what to do, because I’m far from being a good marketer (more often than not I feel like I’m throwing darts in the dark), but by telling my story, hopefully it sparks ideas that are applicable to your businesses.

Most people are more motivated by external factors than internal ones, so they simply work better when they are accountable to someone else. When you are working on your own, there isn't usually anyone making sure that you are actually getting things done.

I would never advise someone to work 18 hour days, especially if they already have financial stability from a full-time job. There's no need to rush it - taking it slowly is also valid.

In some ways, working on my startup is like playing video games for me - it's just too much fun. But burnout might come from not being able to work on it, actually.

Depends of what you want to build. Going all-in is a valid option but not the only one. It is possible to have a job, get 8+ hours of sleep, and also run a profitable side project. This is especially important for first time founders.

+++ This is so important and one of the hardest things for me. I discover that when you schedule for leisure, you are less likely to feel guilty about taking a break.

Basically, yes. I work remotely, so I'm not a huge breakfast guy. I have a banana and yogurt on my desk as a quick breakfast right after I wake up and then start working.

Correct! I may have forgotten to include a disclaimer that I am only referring to first time builders, those who want to build a lifestyle business or just test the waters with a new product idea.

100% true. Luckily for me, I live in Sweden and work life balance here is great, we get +four weeks of vacation and many benefits. So far, I haven't met anyone with the "hustle hustle hustle" attitude that you can find in other parts of the world, and I'm saying that as something positive!

There are both good and bad psychological implications. Personally, for me it allows me to approach my business without the pressure that it needs to be successful. Having a more relaxed attitude prevents me from panicking and making stupid mistakes.

The startup scene is often romanticized as an all-or-nothing endeavor, where you either go all-in and burn the midnight oil or you don’t make it at all.
Well, I think that’s bullshit.
There’s nothing wrong with taking things slow, and working on your business on the side while you keep your day job.
