Focusing on just one problem when building no-code product

From some context, we are building Graftini.

Initially we sought out to build a dynamic web app builder where a user could connect any kind of backend API, design it and program it with low-(no-code). The plan was becoming overly ambitious. We were adding lists of features that we could imagine of, in the pipeline and it was being hard to reason about.

Now, we are trimming off the fat from the product for an initial stable launch (next month) and limit it just to being a no-code designer which can connect to WordPress APIs.

In short, "Graftini is a no-code SaaS to design and deploy frontends for your headless WordPress backend".

This was the initial intention from the start but when you start developing a product, you fall down a rabbit-hole.

    Hey @pepsighan, really cool product you've got there!

    Seeing that you're going to launch on PH, I've got a few case studies that I think would help:

    ---

    1. Find a hunter to hunt your product
    • Having a good hunter on your side is like being in pole position on the starting grid of a Formula 1 race. Your chances of finishing first are significantly higher.
    1. Get some beta-users first
    • Build up an email list or some audience before launch. On the day or a few days before the launch, connect with them and ask them for a favour to upvote your launch.

    Don't forget, you can shipped repeatedly on PH.

    You can check out more case studies under the "Product Hunt" or other strategies type that I've curated and summarised at GrowthHunt.co

    Cheers & all the best!

        Launching on PH requires a number of different preparations and groundwork!
