The trick with this wave of fast apps will be getting others to use the things that are built. Sure you can build something for yourself quickly enough, but you'll likely need the …

Same. It's freed up hours to spend with the kids. Time is scarce

In my experience that's where story points come in. "This comparable project took this number of story points, therefore should be similar, resulting in a comparable amount of time…

I mentioned this a few months ago, but have made progress since - I'm working on an alternative to subscriptions for online publications. Instead of subscribing to entire publicati…

Hey, this is relevant to what I'm working on - I'm building an alternative to subscriptions for online publications. Instead of subscribing to entire publications / blogs, publishe…

The better the marketing, the easier the sales.

Better than rolling out an AI to hopefully find the docs you're looking for, it would be better to create an actual framework for the docs. This would remove uncertainty about wher…

Where is the best place you've found to receive this feedback?

I'm building an attendance management app - https://tendee.co I had a few itches to scratch: - one off events now that fewer people are on facebook; - planning in advance for subs …
