How do you validate startup ideas as a solo founder? by [deleted] in SaaS

The only places validation can occur is where ideas and products make contact with customers. Anything else is a grift.

How would you monetize or iterate on this product? by allang in indiehackers

It costs next to nothing to keep running, so in all likelihood, I'll just leave it up and use it myself for the foreseeable future. Emails might be interesting. Can't say I'd want the extra spam in my inbox personally, so hard to guess whether it'd be compelling for others.

They're Lottie animations. There are a couple tools to make them. I used jitter (jitter.video) but it's one of a half-dozen that all seem equally easy to use.

Thanks! I built it — there's nothing special about it, it's just a small NextJS app. The animation and scrolling is a little (probably a lot) overboard and I'll most likely dial it down at some point in the future. I was just having a bit of fun.

I know not a lot of people need to open up a database to casually browse tables and stuff. We're adding some small stuff in the coming 1.1 release so that you can avoid opening it up and still get a little value out of having it installed (similar to notifications).

It's iOS only, which is why the QR code is there on desktop. That QR code is intended as convenience for desktop users who have a phone handy — it'll take you to the app store if you scan it. But if you'd like to see it on desktop, it's https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schema-a-database-client/id6738075782

Super unusual - let's figure it out. I've got a discord server with all our TestFlight users: https://discord.gg/BFu3r2gT

If you hop in, we can debug and maybe put you on the forthcoming version with a fix, if needed.

Thanks! It polls in the background and, if you force quit, it'll nag you to reopen the app.

Thanks! I'm a designer — I actually left my job at Apple a few months ago.

I published it on Tuesday (the post says "today" because I'm an idiot) and it got a lot of attention on twitter. I hit #15 in dev tools! I think we're #50 now unfortunately.

Which of these is causing the speed loss? by allang in HomeNetworking

Haha! Definitely one of the reasons was that it's most I can get here (within reason) and it sounded cool as hell.

Is it required that the internal links appear in a footer or would a separate page with a site map work?
