how to validate your startup idea (as a developer)
Переглядів 18 тис.День тому
Welcome back to another day in the life building my community startup in NYC! Today I'm revealing how I grew a waitlist of emails ( paying pre-order users) for a new app idea I had a few months ago. This is the exact step-by-step flow I used to validate a startup idea before starting the build on it. Other than that, we're just kicking into another regular build vlog! Enjoy! 🎯 Get started with ...

Loving these videos ! Started back from the beginning, following your journey. True inspiration from one software engineer to another! Still got some catching up to do 😆but enjoying every minute of it 😃
@JacobSucksAtCode. Man, I really appreciate how you are giving real advice. Thank you.
I haven’t watched all your vlogs dude, just a few, so is that a new startup and are you keeping starting startups all the way?
Your coding journey and accomplishments are truly inspiring! 🚀 It's clear you have deep expertise in rapid development. Could you share some key strategies you used to streamline your process and complete Typeform in such a short time? 🤔 Excited to hear your insights!
Great work per usual! Loving the content and the process!
Encouraging as usual! Just conceptualized my first major project and this keeps me excited about it!
Moving back to NZ?
Nice vid! Tip: you can wrap your migration within a transaction to make it safer when running in production
Next year hes at 40.9k
how did you get a 5 year working visa?
I didn’t
Hey Jacob, great video! Any details you can share on your tech stack? looks like you're using NestJS for your API and Next for your frontend -- how are you connecting the two? Did you consider something like tRPC/T3 stack?
I generate types to the frontend using the Openapi swagger generator
What are you using for logging your servers?
great video! just curious, but what logger are you using that shows up in 11:11?
what database do you use for dev and prod?
Railway
nice work youre doing with subb! really enjoying the documentation on yt as well. also, it would be nice to add something to that "thank you" page, so the user applying should be aware that they will receive an email regarding their application (which will allow them to pay and get acces to the community).
Subb is really taking off with the new features, keep it going! If I were to guess where you guys are headed next after the US I would say London :D
Do you think the "approve" dialog should be a purple button on the right of the cell in the table, or do creators have to manually click each one and then click "approve"?
Binnie how tf did you build this entire thing on a 14 inch laptop
😂
I do have to ask, why not have all the form fields on one page? Rather than having users click next next, it’d get pretty cumbersome especially if a user makes an error or if the subs form requests more information from users when they sign up.
Jacob: you should be extra careful while merging proof read it 4 times 2 mins later Jacob: when in doubt just merge it
😂
super exciting stuff! later down the line do you think subbb might allow creators to create a paid community directly on the site (without going through discord, etc.)?
Maybe!
Cool idea! A suggestion, add a progress bar so users know how many questions they have to answer. I hate not knowing if it's 30 seconds or 5 mins
what deployment platform is that
Railway
LGTM 😂
What are you using for nestjs api hosting?
Railway
Nice work! Love the T-shirt too 😅
Can you share more detail on how you did the customization of the applications? My company is currently introducing a template approach and oh boy am I struggling coding it
What do you mean?
Bro, is it London??😂😂😂😂😂😂
👀
@@JacobSucksAtCode it's London my guy 😁😁😁😅😅😅😅
How do you exactly do staging and production? I always did it at my internships but never on my personal projects
Same code, different environment variables
Hi bro .Where do you work?
NYC
Nice brother more power to you
Hi Jacob ❤, I decided to learn software engineer machine learning 😊 what's your opinion in this for person who love to write code so much, or web dev better for me 😊❤?? Please reply 🙏?
Whatever you like
@@JacobSucksAtCode how i can choose, I'm very confused between it. Please help me?
How does your front end work do you use react, if so do you use a component library and such does anybody have any tips on this, I am familiar with react but feel like it takes time to make a good UI
Take inspiration from other people's apps
Suggestion!! I feel the feauture where the creator accepts a submission by applying or rejecting, should have a pop up to verify whether their sure about their choice. Just in case someone mistakenly clicked the wrong button.
Not a bad idea!
Honestly instead of adding another thing to the flow, I would just add a list of accepted/rejected options so they can change their choice, or do like Google and show a notification with "Submission accepted" or "Submission rejected" and an undo button within the notification for a more cleaner setup.
@@hibrunocosta It's like a staging environment for the creator so they can push their accepted ppl to "prod" :)
This man can't be stopped! Great video man, such a cool insight into what it takes to build!
Appreciate it!
Awesome and sick!
Where do you host it?
Railway
Jacob, could you please share the link for your backpack?
I bought it over 10 years ago haha
@@JacobSucksAtCode wow! it looks brand new
@JacobSucksAtCode in your next video please can you tells use your tech stack and how much it costs for you to run it. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Around $30 per month
what database app is he using ?
Railway
And also datagrip
Record it in 60 fps not 30 or 25🎉❤
A suggestion if you may: I think having autofocus on form fields after appearing makes the experience way smoother
Very nice man...🚀 BR
Love watching your videos! Do you design the UI for Sub as well?
Yep!
that really is sick, congratz!😆
Hey Jacob, another cool video 👌Can't wait to see where you move 😎Btw, what tech stack are you using? Which database?
PostgreSQL
yeah, the migrations thing is something to really look out for, a couple of weeks ago i pushed to prod and a migration wiped the entire database (thankfully i had a backup). At least it helped me realize i needed to take a lot more precautions before pushing to prod
I really enjoy watching your videos so much!
@JacobSucksAtCode Is it just you coding this by yourself? Are you looking for other developers?
Currently just me!
What about a back button in the typeform, for when people make a mistake or something? Another thing is that when too many people apply, it becomes a bit time-consuming to approve each person one by one. Great video!
True... but also the point is you want to approve people one by one :)
