I hear a lot about “validate now, build later” or “get payments first” as proof of demand. But with how fast I code, I worry about disappointing those who pay upfront. I believe building an MVP first, then getting users to pay, creates a stronger foundation and trust.

Last night I had a dream where I explained what java methods do to my father in law. In a sense it made me realize how easy they are. If they are void, they don’t return anything and if they are a type then return that type. The dream made me say: I got this. Still weird cause I know this stuff.

Has anyone here launched a waitlist and actually charged for the product before building it? Curious how it went, what worked, what didn’t, and what you’d do differently. How is your flow, does the CTA says Join Waitlist and then takes them to a Paywall or what? 🧐 #buildinpublic
