27 years old. No investors. No team.

Built a Shopify app to $7.5k/mo.

Now building PrimePrompt.
Currently making $27/mo.

Goal: $10k/mo before I turn 28.

Documenting everything here.
Real numbers. Real failures. No fluff.

@ShopifySupport @Shopify Our legitimate reviews were removed. We reported it to partner support and followed up, but there's been no response so far. Reviews mean a lot to small businesses could someone please look into this and escalate?

I spent years getting better at Liquid, JavaScript, and Shopify APIs.

My skills went up. My income stayed flat.
The day I started understanding CAC, LTV, gross margins, unit economics, and why a merchant says no to a $20K build, everything changed.

If you're a Shopify dev and you've never sat down to understand how your client actually makes money, start. It'll do more for your career than the next framework.

@alexwtlf Honestly didn't struggle much with my first 100. I build for the Shopify ecosystem so the app store does the heavy lifting. But now I've built PrimePrompt outside of Shopify and yeah, I finally understand what everyone's talking about.

Prompts are the key to getting 100% out of AI and most people overlook this. We built a free extension to solve this problem. It started as an internal tool that genuinely improved our team's efficiency. Then we thought why not open it up, so we launched PrimePrompt https://t.co/RWOzqlh3oK

@noahkagan Building PrimePrompt, my first product outside the Shopify ecosystem. Already submitted a listing request on AppSumo. Would love to have it featured.

Been building Shopify apps for a while now and the one tool I regret not finding earlier is @gadget_dev
OAuth, webhooks, data sync, API version migrations. all the stuff that has nothing to do with your actual app but eats up weeks of your time. gone.

just thought I'd share in case any other indie devs are still doing that manually

@iamtanzil_ Thanks brother

Launched PrimePrompt on Product Hunt today.

No preparation. No email list. No hunter with 10k followers.

Just hit publish and hoped for the best.
Currently at 2 upvotes.

This is what launching without a plan looks like. Lesson learned the hard way.

@rcmisk You should not be questioning this after a week or month... You need to spend the least 6 months.. then you've enough data, knowledge and experience to decide
