The best part of Build in Public is the feedback loop. You post progress, someone points out the blind spot, you ship the fix. Tiny updates compound into real momentum.

Before writing code, how do you BEST validate an app idea? A) Build an MVP and see if people use it. B) Talk to 10+ target users about the problem. C) Analyze competitors and market size. #buildinpublic #marketvalidation #startup

The most powerful marketing tool isn't your ad budget. It's a user so happy they can't stop telling their friends. #BuildinPublic #WordOfMouth #CustomerLove #ProductLedGrowth #UX`

The best early metric for a utility app (non-social) is: A) Total number of downloads. B) Weekly Active Users (WAU). C) User retention after 7 days. #startup #appdev #buildinpublic #startup

The goal of a "soft launch" is to: A) Get a few 5-star reviews from friends. B) Test real-world usage and fix critical bugs. C) Generate press coverage in top tech blogs. #startup #appdev #BuildinPublic

For a v1, you should prioritize a feature that: A) The loudest beta user is demanding. B) Is easiest for your team to build. C) Solves the core problem for your ideal user. #appdev #startup

Mid 2025, I built a rough little text from images app. Never thought I’d take it further—until a company held my Pastor’s QR codes hostage. That lit a fire. I dropped a 10-Day App Building Challenge (11 -20 Dec). Failed. 13 days later it worked. MVP here: boiki5.github.io/qrforge

What started as irritation turned smthing tangible. The QR gen MVP is done. Not perfect. If you can, please check it out and let me know what you think. Your support means a lot to me. #BuildinPublic boiki5.github.io/qrforge

An app without a story is just software. An app with a "why" is a movement people want to join.#BuildInPublic #FounderMindset #GoToMarket #Bootstrapped #IndieHacker

The "Build in Public" philosophy is mainly about: A) Open-sourcing all your code from day one. B) Sharing your progress to build audience & accountability. C) Getting free bug reports from the community. Yo thoughts? #buildinpublic #startup #marketvalidation #appdev

What's the strongest sign of market validation? A = An existing app is successful. B = The decision to clone a successful app. C = Actually cloning and launching the app. Thoughts? Let's discuss. #buildinpublic #startup #marketvalidation #appdev

Day 9/10 in the App Challenge. D/L toggle, Login/logout, Donate btn, Legal modal work. QR code gen is failin. Worried won't meet the deadline. #BuildQRin10Days

I built myself a tiny text-from-image reader months ago (see screen recording). No confidence to make it real. Then a company grabbed my Pastor’s QR codes and woke me up. So I’m launching a 10-Day App Building Challenge. Details coming.

We often hear: “Only take advice from people who’ve succeeded.” But is that always true? The truth? Ideas are seeds. What matters is not where they come from, but who plants them and makes them grow. open.substack.com/pub/motivati...

A person demonstrates true strength by using their power to help a weak person back on their feet.

If you're running on empty, it's not a sign of weakness. It's a sign you need to pause, refuel, and reset. Even machines need rest. So why do we think we can keep going forever? Rest isn't laziness—it’s maintenance. #MotivationManifest #Rest #Wellness #SelfCare open.substack.com/pub/motivati...
