Sharing the journey. Let's connect.

Within the last week, I've made the decision to pivot https://t.co/ybfbmlyunw from a to-do and project showcase app to a to-do and social posting app.

Users are not using the showcase section, but I've unintentionally realised that I've got great data from the users using the app for projects and to-dos.

And this realisation means I'm pivoting the project.
No, it's not just another scheduling app. It's going to be something that I don't think anyone else is doing.

Quietly, quite excited.

The solo dev grind is quiet, but it is steady.

If you are staring at a bug that makes no sense today, take a walk.

It will still be there in 30 minutes, and you will probably solve it in 5 once you are back.

Day 21 building in public:

Currently tweaking the buildinpublic challenge functionality on SideHub.
It's incrementally getting better and smarter.

Founders/builders:

What is one thing you 'finished' this week that actually made your life easier as a developer?

#buildinpublic

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@JessePeplinski nice. good luck with both projects Jesse.

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

Solo founders - what's on the roadmap today?

I'm curious what everyone is pushing live this week.

Drop a link or tell me what you're cooking below :)

Most devs treat lead generation like a secondary task.

I’m currently digging into https://t.co/P4tZpLP5vd to automate this part of SideHub v2. Trying to move away from manual outreach and see if I can actually scale the top of the funnel.

Has anyone else used Apollo for early-stage SaaS? Any tips?

@jakobjelling nice.

lets connect.

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@woodchipdaddy Ah nice 👍

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@NgFLSAMUEL problem with that is my mum always says... "thats nice dear" 😊

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

If the user can't tell exactly what the product does in 5 seconds, you've already lost them.

Cut the fluff. Focus on the value. 😃

@Chiemelie_dev lol. i know that feeling oh too well.

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

Day 20 of building SideHub v2.

Deep in the weeds of the analytics dashboard - refining user engagement tracking to see what actually hooks people.

Also making progress on the iOS native views. Nothing beats the feel of a real app over a browser tab.

@_itsjustshubh yeah, realistic human sounding can be difficult even when you do train it to recognise users' posts

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@Faysalfateh1 @UneedLists good luck

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@siddqamar_ai Sounds interesting

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@SaidAitmbarek Sounds interesting

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@lynnt_builds Talking to users early on is definitely worth doing.

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

@VollosAi webhook signature verification - it's something I have Claude Code saved to memory for all projects 😀👍

[JeremyA @Jeremy___a]

Stripe integration is next on the list for DevSMTP.

There is something about handling payments that makes the whole project feel 'real' - but also a little nerve-wracking.

Anyone else get that mini-anxiety spike when setting up billing? 😅
