How I validated a Micro-SaaS idea in 48 hours — without writing a single line of code

Just published an article walking through the exact process I used to validate a product idea before writing a single line of code.

Most developers (including me) used to build first, then hope someone wants it. This flips that.

Covers:

  1. What real validation actually means
  2. The fake door technique
  3. How to get 50 eyeballs on it without spending money
  4. The 5 conversations that tell you everything

Would love feedback from the community!

    Hey — read your post on validating your micro-SaaS idea with fake-door tests and conversations. Now that you've run the experiment, what's telling you it's worth building vs. still uncertain? I've been mapping out validation signals like this and happy to trade notes if useful.
