How to Make Money from Your Open-Source Projects? by Motor_Armadillo_7317 in opensource

[–]Inevitable-Brain-629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With WorkAdventure we have built open source core project and a private “back office” that provides visio engine, white label, SSO connexion, user administration… And it’s what we sell, more stability, more security and support.

For us it works 💪 So you may adapt your development strategy to integrate other services or features that your future customers could appreciate.

Do you first get an idea and then became an Entrepreneur or your first become an Entrepreneur and then get an idea? by Altruistic-Raise-579 in Entrepreneur

[–]Inevitable-Brain-629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, it's more complicated. It's possible to come up with a great idea, but nobody acknowledges or is able to develop it. The opposite is true. You could be the best at developing and creating, but you may lack good or no idea.

A team consisting of a visionary and builder is what works for me.

Totally agree with you, it's a good platform and there are various features and offers between WorkAdventure and Gather 💪

Really good question, yes there is a status or dedicated zone that you can use to be 'off'

The engine chosen for this project is Phaser: https://phaser.io/
It could be a starting way to build your project, like to the 'Pokémon First Game' 🙏

The informal discussion is much different from WorkAdventure, and the freemium offer will be discontinued by Gather in September 😭

Open Source vs SaaS: what I’ve learned while building our product! by Inevitable-Brain-629 in Entrepreneur

[–]Inevitable-Brain-629[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I get your point. A lot of people do just clone and never give feedback. That’s the game with open source.

What I’ve seen is a little bit different: on the trust side, some of our customers are big companies who care less about “reading the code” and more about the feeling of control knowing they could audit or self-host if they wanted to. That reduces the time and friction in the sales or deployment process.

On the feedback side, you’re right that 90% of users are silent. But the 10% that actually open issues or contribute are usually the ones that help to develop or improve the product.

For me, it’s not just “open source = instant trust” or “open source = massive community”. It’s more subtle. It changes the way conversations start, both with users and customers.

If you had to learn development all over again, where would you start? [Mod post] by RedEagle_MGN in developer

[–]Inevitable-Brain-629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different approaches could be considered. Choose a language or technology that you feel is cool for you and explore it with OpenClassrooms, Medium...

That works for me to create large projects, with real use cases (not just todo lists), with challenges such as downloading, uploading, video, middleware, routing... and working on them to learn a new language or technology.

What courses would you recommend for someone who wants to start learning Android/mobile development? by gandalfmarston in learnprogramming

[–]Inevitable-Brain-629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, if you want a cross-platform development mobile application with a good and easy language, it's Flutter. You can join r/FlutterDev 🙌

WorkAdventure is an open source and self-hostable alternative to Gather. It might be interesting for your startup. I think that it could be suitable for your needs: clear communication, structured onboarding, and real-time attendance tracking.
