I think you should look into Tachyons and have fun. There are very elegant solutions to your problem in the gallery: tachyons.io/gallery/
By having a corporation, let's say, in the US, you can protect yourself from stupid stuff like blocked accounts, etc. Additionally, it's easier to sign contracts with enterprise clients. It's actually not that difficult:
osome.com/
clerky.com
stripe.com/atlas
handbook.clerky.com
I just checked Stripe Atlas. It says it costs $500. Am I right ?
$500 just to register a startup. What if the startup doesn't work?
Also what do you mean by blocked accounts? I don't want my bank account block if I'm doing some internet business.
I won't have any enterprise clients but can you explain what is the harm if I don't register ? Can you explain in a bit more detail ?
Also, am I fine till it doesn't cross a particular threshold (in $), like some value (ex. if it makes $5000/month I'm not gonna suffer any consequences) ? Sorry but I'm completely noob at this 😂
You can create an entity once and then launch different projects. My observation shows that companies outside of the US or EU have more difficulties with sales because there is a lack of trust. I would recommend talking to the lawyer. Good luck :)

And yes, Seth Godin about "Tribes", but for me advise from Gary Vaynerchuk was more actionable.
Hi Marie, could you please explain the idea of this chat? So far I could see that WIP community is very friendly and is not sexist. We need to see more women in the main chat! There is definitely some inbalance now, but this can be easily fixed.
Hi Max! I agree with you, the WIP community is very friendly and not sexist. Still, there is very few women talking on the chat. I know it can be a bit tricky to create a side group for women, but I though it could also encourage them to express themselves and might give them more confidence. I'd love to hear your ideas of how to fix this though, I'd be very happy to see more women here.
Got it. There should be a better way to organize the WIP channel in general. Right now it's hard to follow what's going on and there are only a thousand of members. Many spammy tasks, irrelevant discussions. Maybe when we discover a better way to communicate at scale, then everyone would be heard.
Hey Joel, I would like to have Wanderlist integration. So I could add tasks to the specific directory and have them automatically synced with WIP. And definitely a slack bot. Great idea, by the way!
Thank you!
Will have a look at Wanderlist and what’s possible 👍🏼
What kind of Slack bot would you like?
Something similar to wipbot, but just for adding tasks, probably: "/done", "/add". Additionally, I'd like to get WIP notifications to a Slack channel, if I am mentioned. My teammates would be happy to read feedback too. When I add new tasks or mark something as done, there should be a notification in the same Slack channel. That would be awesome. Thanks, Joel!
