I'm in the process of simplifying WIP. The reason is that over time the codebase and UX gets more complicated as we add more features. It's important to sometimes also REMOVE features to keep things lean and progress on-going. Pending todos (i.e. todos that aren't completed) have been part of WI...

What are you working on these days? Together with Dima (dima_heyqq) I am building oscarstories.com and branding5.com What can the WIP community help you with right now? With Oscar Stories we already hit 25k users, but with branding5 we are right now trying to do our first babysteps for market...

Hi! I'm Benjamin, 32, and from the South of France. I'm working on a SaaS named Nobinge. It's been quite a journey since launching in April 2024. Here's what it is: - A B2B API offering pre-built AI-powered features for businesses that want to focus on building and transform their products (dat...

I've been toying with three related ideas for WIP to grow the community and get more (relevant) people onboard: Idea 1: Free Currently, anyone considering to join WIP will need to commit to paying $20 per month. This is great in the sense that we don't get any spam, and the majority of new memb...

I just finished up watching Daniel Vassallo's and Sean O'Down's live session - $500 on Upwork by Monday, and it sparked a realization for me. Instead of further burning my savings while pursuing my indie hacker goal, I should boost up my morale a bit by making some extra money from freelance gigs...

There are a lot of talented people in our community, but it isn't always easy to find them. What if we allowed you to add your skills to your profile? Then later we can add filters, so then when you have an SEO question you can quickly find all members who are experts at that. We can also start...

Hey folks, I am not sure if it's the right place to ask, but I plan to go to the Algarve (to escape the Dutch gray winter) in Jan/Feb. Does anyone know the region well? I don't need much, just a lovely town to stay and do focus work. I am going by car, so I don't care about the close airport. I...

I've added Tailwind CSS and ViewComponent to the WIP codebase. What started out two weeks ago as a "quick experiment" soon turned into a long rabbit hole of refactoring large parts of the codebase. With each change, affecting something else in the codebase, requiring another change and so forth....

You might get excited about a feature and start building a basic MVP of it & launch, which would simply die if it doesn't get traction. If you can wait for the community to be larger, then it would have a better chance of gaining traction, which you would miss out on, if you were to execute it e...

Our community is quite diverse – many people are shipping their very first products while there are also folks with five, ten or even more years of experience here.  I also see established makers willing to share their knowledge and wisdom, and new makers willing to learn. It looks like there’s ...

Curious to hear what new habits other members you all are building? Some sub-questions: • What made you want to build this particular habit? • How is it going? Harder/easier than possible? Anything surprising? • What benefits (and drawbacks) have you experienced so far?

Marketing Examples is a gallery of real world marketing examples. Since it launched eight months ago I've written ~50 case studies and grown the email list and Twitter to 12.9k and 24k respectively. Watching an email list grow is nice, but seeing a Stripe account grow is more motivating. My lea...

Hey , I think it would be cool if we could see those posts in the feed because that way they would be more discoverable than they are now. Numbers show that the Milestones are going unnoticed. I just learned for example that posted a milestone, that it's not only inspiring, but also let me disco...

@marc, I've been chatting with some folks here and we're all keen on a silent coworking room on WIP. It seems like Hangouts, outside of the weekly call, isn't getting much love (I've checked a few times and it's been empty). Maybe we could rename it to Coworking in the menu, or even create a new ...

Hi everyone! I’m so glad I made it here and thank you for the invite. I was curious about this platform for a long time, I think it has a huge potential as a cool social media alt, and I hope I will not disappoint with my WIP 🫡 What are you working on these days? - a virtual try-on interface ...
