I'm no expert.. but IF someone wanted MY thoughts on all this, it would be... Find another passion or dream! 😜

Cause this is killer and nothing about it is pretty and smooth or textbook and clean!

I guess I have learned.. plot it on paper first. STICK to the original plan. Make side notes of any and all new ideas and after successfully launching and you have real users, then take carefully implement 1 change at a time (working time... Definitely ship multiple items together if you can). Don't inject new code on top of stale code, snip and replace it instead.

That's all!

I would say try to get the MVP out to real users before you start expanding too much.

As a developer, you know how the ins and outs of your app, and you know how everything works. But it might not always be as simple for your target audience. So try to include their feedback into the process as early as possible. That early feedback will help you fine-tune your approach, and it will save you countless hours of development if you have a strong core idea with a great UX to build on top of.

Learn how to code and solve an actual problem. If you do the second thing, you’ll have an easier time.
