Hi, thanks for sharing your experience. It’s a solid advice and I will think about it

Good analogy, thank you

Ok, thanks, I will try to read it

I agree with this and I plan to involve potential customers as early as possible so they can realistically say if this is something they are willing to pay for. I spend a year of building my current stuff and soon I plan to release an alpha version to validate my implementation. Even if it’s shit - at least I earned a lot of experience from that implementation.

Hi, yeah, I 100% agree and I plan to involve potential clients in the product asap. Currently, I’m finishing of the implementation of an alpha version of my product that will be pitched to a potential customers.

Hi, yes, I agree with you that money management will help me with my business. I already did some homework on this and will try to revise my budget once more and start collecting more money so I can live without job for a while.

Hi, yes, unfortunately I don’t have a lot of time. Besides my ideas, I also have a family and other stuff I need to spend my time too. I understand I can sacrifice my family or health time for my business, but this is no go in my case, because those are more important for me than money.

I plan to try to optimize my routine time so I have more for my projects

Hi, yeah, that stuff is hard. I want to believe I can manage to do that but I have a bit of dismorale. I try to calm myself down with thoughts that even if my whole idea wouldn’t fire and earn 0 money - at least I earned precious experience I can use to get a better job in the future.

Hi, thanks for advices, I definitely need go answer those questions before I continue moving forward

Hi, thanks for your advice. I think that 2 people will do more than one too. Unfortunately, for now I didn’t find a person who is interested to become my partner for my current project.

Hi. While I can agree that sales thinking is important for a business, I don’t want to be a con artist.

I already had experience to working with people as that, who sells things that don’t exist yet. Everything was fine till people understand that super cool product they were promised is unreal to implement (so eventually it is a scam).

Hi, I’m currently finishing an implementation of an alpha version of my project to actually validate the idea if people are ready to pay for something like that. Even that takes me a lot of time to implement

Hi, thanks for sharing your experience. Yeah, I understand that I will spend a lot of time on actual management rather than on coding itself. And, frankly speaking, I want this.

One of the reasons I want to start my own company is that I have a chance to be an architect and a manager on a project I actually enjoy instead of wrestling my way to an architect position in a random company and deal with people who is hard to deal with.

Hi, hmm, I think that’s almost the tool I had in mind. So if sonarqube exists, I guess there is no need for another tool in the same area. Thanks for sharing

Hi, thanks for sharing the info, appreciated

Hi, can you share an example?

That’s true, and that’s a hard part. I have some ideas on how to solve that problem, but I can’t prove anything because this is the first time I’m working on a helper like that one.

That’s also the reason why I decided to ask people - there is no point in engaging in complex problem-solving, like for that tool, to only find out that no one actually needs it

Hello, please, see my comment -> https://feddit.org/post/20205034/9426357

Hi, not really. Please, see my comment -> https://feddit.org/post/20205034/9426357

I believe those are tools that use general-purpose LLMs, which aren’t tuned for refactoring specifically. So I guess a specifically tuned tool for refactoring will beat those you mentioned in refactoring tasks.

I also imagine a tool that is not AI-driven. While AI will be used for sure for some checks, I believe static checks and other “computable” heuristics will produce better output faster. I don’t want to throw a bunch of prompts into AI and sell mediocre-quality software to people.

But overall, I think about what you said, but from another perspective - why have a separate webpage if such of helper can be built into IDE/editor? I think this is harder to do than to create a webpage, but maybe this will be better for users (developers).
