[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

I’m building small apps from scratch and trying to get them to $10K MRR.

Current project: Word Pogo - a daily word puzzle game.

I’ll post what I build, what works, what fails, and the actual numbers.

First goal: get the first 1,000 users.

@YashHustle_22 Depends on the type of problem, but for me, personally, subscriptions are the go to method

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@chaosengineerr No way. Once inside, there's no going back 😅

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@YashHustle_22 Codex for my every day dev workflows

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@TTrimoreau Strict and Tight regulatory environment

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@DanielSmidstrup lol

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@pcshipp wait, you didn't. did you?

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@YashHustle_22 True 💯

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@thomashebrard @TTrimoreau Exactly 💯

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@Drago_18_ software engineering is much more than prompting your way to a product

but yes, the gap is getting smaller day by day

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

when I started my indie dev journey, I was verymuch into the development side of the product

and I believe you have the same story as well

fast forward, I shipped my first product and eventually, it failed

and to the day, I'm glad it failed.

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@DanielSmidstrup general population is still too skeptical and believes that AI is going to take over their jobs.

But, as an indie dev, I am so glad we have this technology at my disposal

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@rajibmondal_ As indie devs, we are obliged to first try to build it and use for free.

Nice POV

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

dev, why do you keep building even when nobody is signing up for your product?

1. I build for fun
2. I just don't wanna do the dirty marketing part

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@rajibmondal_ @Temitope27555 will try it out, Thanks man

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@emanueledpt man, every single domain is taken.

only less obvious, uncatchy names are available now

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@BratDotAI haha, lol

me too!

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@pcshipp hate is a strong word here, but, I dont like how claude code is performing right now, in terms of the model as well as session limits

[Nishan | Indie Dev @nishancodes]

@sflorimm as indie dev's we are destined to hate it in the beginning and eventually understand that's the missing piece
