“Free apps don’t make money.” False. The free ones often make the most. Here’s how: Ads (think Instagram, YouTube) Freemium upgrades (Spotify, Notion) Data & insights (market gold) Free isn’t charity. It’s a strategy. #Startups #AppDev #BusinessModels

Thinking feels safe. Doing feels scary. But only action turns fog into clarity. → Write, build, launch. The world rewards doers, not overthinkers. #thinkervsdoer #justdoit #launch

Every big success you admire started the same way: Not with perfect thinking. But with imperfect doing. Do first → Think better later. #startup #startnow

The best freelance clients don’t ask: “How many hours will this take?” They ask: “How fast can we launch?” “How do we make it work?” Price-sensitive clients kill growth. Value-driven clients build it. #FreelanceDev #Clients #IndieHackers

Being a solopreneur isn’t about doing everything alone. It’s about learning how to: - ship fast - Use the right tools - stay alive long enough to grow The “solo” part is the focus. Not isolation. #Solopreneur #IndieHackers #StartupLife

Your MVP doesn’t need: ❌ 5 features ❌ Pixel-perfect UI It needs: ✅ One painful problem solved ✅ One real user who cares Everything else is noise. 👉 What’s the loudest noise you’re cutting from your MVP? #StartupTips #MVP #BuildInPublic

Hot take: AI won’t replace developers. But it will replace: - Slow coders - Overthinkers - People are afraid to adapt The best devs will use AI as a multiplier. Not a crutch. 👉 Are you team “AI helps me” or “AI scares me”? #AI #WebDev #GenerativeAI #NextJS

I wasted weeks polishing features nobody used. Now? I build the ugly version fast → ship → listen → improve. MVPs are meant to be ugly. They’re supposed to feel incomplete. That’s the point. Do you ship ugly first, or wait until it’s “perfect”? #BuildInPublic #IndieHackers

Sometimes I forget this: Clients don’t care about my code. They care if their product works, looks clean, and makes money. Next.js, Tailwind, Supabase… they’re just tools. The real value = solving the right problem. 👉 What do your clients care about the most? #StartupLife

Generative AI isn’t here to “replace devs.” It’s here to make us super fast. AI + Web Dev = ⚡: - Generate boilerplate with AI - Focus on logic + design - Ship MVPs 10x faster Devs who use AI win. Devs who fear it. fall behind. Are you using AI in your dev workflow yet? #WebDev

Freelancers don’t sell code. They sell speed + certainty. Clients hire you because: - You deliver fast - You communicate clearly - You remove stress Tech stack matters less than trust. Freelancers: What’s your #1 client-winning skill? #FreelanceDev #IndieHackers #StartupLife

Bad code doesn’t kill startups. Confusion does. Your landing page should answer in 5 seconds: - Who is this for? - What problem do you solve? - Why trust you? Simple > Fancy. Clarity = Conversions. Open your site right now. Can a stranger “get it” in 5 sec? #StartupTips

Want to save 50% dev time? Stack that works for solopreneurs: - Next.js → frontend & SSR - Supabase → DB + auth - Tailwind → UI in hours Ship 2x faster. Spend time on growth, not setup. What’s your go-to stack? #NextJS #Supabase #TailwindCSS #WebDev #IndieHackers

Your code is clean. Your UI is beautiful. Still no users? Because distribution beats perfection. - Share your journey daily - Post tips + lessons - Engage with founders Your product won’t sell itself. Your story will. Are you building in public or in silence? #BuildInPublic

Building an MVP? Don’t start with features. Start with one painful problem. - Code fast (Next.js + Supabase) - Design clean (Tailwind) - Ship → Get feedback → Iterate Your MVP isn’t a product. It’s a test. What problem would your MVP solve? #IndieHackers #StartupTips #MVP

Slow apps kill users faster than bad UI. 🚀 With Next.js + Supabase, you can: - Use SSR for instant load - Cache API calls - Add DB indexes for speed Small tweaks = massive retention. Your app doesn’t need “features.” It needs speed. #NextJS #WebDev #Supabase #StartupLife

90% of startups waste $$$$ on fancy websites. A simple Next.js + Tailwind + Supabase stack can launch your MVP in 7 days. - Fast setup - Scales without pain - Saves 💸 for growth Stop overbuilding. Start shipping. What’s stopping you from launching this week? #StartupTips

🚀 Will No-Code Kill Traditional Developers—or Create More of Them? The tools are getting easier. The gap between idea → product is shrinking. 💭 Does this make coding obsolete… OR Open the door for a new wave of builders? 👉 I have a hot take. What’s yours? 👇 #SoftwareJobs
