build and launch your mvp in days, not months.

At 16, all I wanted was IIT.
Didn't make it.

At 19, all I wanted was one job offer.
That didn't happen either.

Microsoft said no.
Autodesk said no.
Google said no.
Every single one said no.

I'd lie on my hostel bed, scrolling through my friends' placement celebrations while I refreshed job portals for the 100th time.

It felt like my story was already written, and I was just an extra in it.

Then one random night, I stumbled on a guy on YouTube.
Regular dude. Freelancer. Making real money.

We talked. He walked me through how he landed clients, how content brought them in, how any of this was even possible.

I thought: "Maybe I can try this."
So I posted every single day. Zero traction. Zero likes. Zero DMs.

I kept going anyway.

Week 6, a DM: "Can you help me build this?"
₹3,000. My first paid project.

From there:

More projects → higher rates → my own team.

Today: a 5-person agency doing $12k/month.

If I did this from a Tier 3 college with zero connections, you can too.

[Varad Shete @shetevaradd]

I've built MVPs with Claude, Cursor, and Codex for a lot of client projects

Every single time, the agent defaults to Postgres or Supabase

Not once has it picked Firebase on its own

Curious what's in the training data that makes that happen
