how to validate your startup idea (as a developer)

🎯 Get started with Tally, create a form for free at: try.tally.so/jacob

[@awerealm9701]

You are a great person with unlimited possibilities keep up the great work i am a self taught web developer working on my own start up as well. Have a happy time in New York said from Denmark with your wife and your projects.

[@Skletorr]

Just binged all your dev videos in two day 😂

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Haha let’s gooooo

[@kshitijk14]

lol same

[@3illanon145]

😂. Y'all should be coding. Btw, I'm binging too

[@kshitijk14]

@@3illanon145 haha agreed

[@viktorfromsales]

The process is sound 👏🏻 one key piece was missing though: driving traffic to the landing page and how that’s done. Arguably the most challenging part for tech founders who’ve never done sales before. Soooo food for thought for a follow up video maybe? 😉 I’ll also release a new video on the topic in the next weeks. Keep up the good work, Jacob!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

True!

[@georgekrax]

OMG Tally has started sponsoring developers and channels! One more reason to subscribe 😉

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Let’s gooooooo

[@cuzonGames]

what is Tally pls 🤣

[@thedreamingtechie]

Tally is really dope, I've used it on multiple projects. Notion for forms 🚀

[@_andrewpeacock]

Yesssiirr!! 🎉 real customer feedback is the KEY👏🏼

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Always!

[@kshitijk14]

Man ngl i love seeing your scenes behind your startup, just discovered you 2 3 days ago, and I'm stocked and motivated to start working on mine now xd

[@AugustoKalahary]

The new Subbb's landing page is SICK YOO!

[@saadk6440]

I just want to know who thought of the innovative Door Open shot at 3:00 😂 Stellar. Keep up the great work

[@FadumaAbdiGoonerfabdi]

I have no idea how I got here but boy am I glad! I've been watching all day lol

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Let’s gooooooo

Banger video ❤ What do you think of AWS? How cost effective is it compared to DigitalOcean let’s say. (I know it depends on use case) Would love to watch a video where you explain where and how you deploy/manage your services and what does that cost to you.

[@diegomarques1697]

You should really make an in depth video about your tech stack. I also love the PERN stack, but am having trouble figuring out hosting, marketing, analytics and I think it would be super helpful to other developers. Love the videos keep it up ❤

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Keep it basic. Don’t think about hosting, marketing or analytics until you need to 😁

[@fortunethedev]

Another awesome vlog! The monitor at 2:39 is exactly the one I've got, what a coincidence😂

[@wandie87]

The new website does look heaps better. Good work.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Thanks!

[@argonjs]

40K right on the edge 🚀. Let's gooo ⚡

[@waymentto]

Congrats with a 40k subs!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

🎉 thanks!!

[@lightwoodalec5037]

Hi Jacob been a fan since day 1 also watching this while at work

[@mikestrives]

Fun vlog as always! 🙌

[@Murilohammes]

This video cannot came in a best time, im doing a video to run ads to a google form to see if my idea is a real need or just a thing that sounds cool

[@paddyvjpeg]

never forget Pave

[@BeserkGames]

Another banger! Keep it up bro!

[@thatolebethe8896]

Yo this is an awesome series are you a solo dev? How do u handle all the other day to day. Marketing costing etc?

[@smyk9557]

Another awesome video, Good Morning!!!

[@Avshar535]

What programming language do you like?

Yesssssir!

[@louishudson2642]

What is your VScode theme?

[@LewisLab.NewZealand]

Interesting content - I work in tech so I can relate to your journey somewhat but I work for someone so maybe not 😂

[@markthomas9181]

Moment of silence for Pave 😂😂😂😂😂

[@willballentine5362]

Hey man, what is your hosting service? Starting to get a product up and running myself and trying to pick the right one. Love the vids! Super inspiring!

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Vercel and railway

[@raghu8705]

you didn’t develop 2:06 the queue system as a separate microservice? Its only for slack now. What if you need the queue system for other integration have it too? Let’s use some. rabbitmq, or any.?

[@robertcamiliere6678]

Do you do basic website design and build ?

[@Sicko852]

Could use a que service that could help with retries

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Supports it already!

[@clara-r5p9u]

King pave wasn't there ⁉️😔

[@lightwoodalec5037]

Didnt he left for Croatia in one of the videos ...

[@Pakenass]

Have you tried using user groups in slack, towhich the integration would add people and that would add people to channels?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

You can set permissions

[@ayoubaitlachgar]

Isn't it too risky to build an entire business on top of another company like Slack or Discord? What would you do if they were to launch monetization as a new feature tomorrow?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

You have to take advantage of opportunities in front of you to get to the next step

[@ayoubaitlachgar]

I agree, it just needs to be aware of the risk here,

[@abhirathdubey285]

damn didn't know Central Cee is a nerd too

Hahahahaha

[@davidalvarez7965]

writing a whole startup on ts you're a brave man

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Bro doesn’t like typescript eh 😅

[@davidalvarez4803]

​@JacobSucksAtCode I was a huge js fan boy but after I got my first job in a Corp environment using c# I just don't think I can trust the loosey goosey nature of js anymore... Even with ts, typing is just a suggestion, the code will still run even with errors... I like the compiler to punish me if I'm being naughty😈

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

@@davidalvarez4803 well I don’t know what kind of ts compiler you were using but mine fails to build the second the types are wrong 😂

[@davidalvarez4803]

@@JacobSucksAtCode can't recall...it was years ago, but to each their own, if it ain't broke don't fix it

[@shaduhhh]

What is your speciality coding language?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

How do I block a channel from being recommended to me.

[@thampipranav]

What happened to repobear? The website seems down

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yep we paused that project a few months back 😎

Hi Jacob ❤, i have a question, i need your help 😊, What's your opinion in (AI developer for Android and iphone application) I like this field, but I'm confused between it and web dev ❤. Please help me 🙏😭??

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Web dev is websites and web applications. Mobile dev is specifically for mobiles such as iOS and Android frameworks 😁

[@wajdpixel4558]

@@JacobSucksAtCode thank you Jacob 😊, That mean web dev is everything about application, but i will use AI with that .
