Hello, Indie Hackers! π
This is my first try at building a product in public.
I'm making a job board focused on developers π©βπ»π¨βπ»
I called it, Hacker Jobs β‘
The plan is to make a simple job board (at first) but specifically for developers, front-end, back-end, devops, ios, android, javascript, rust, aws and so on.
In the long run the idea and vision is to offer multiple services and features to not only serve as "another job board" but more of a "community" in which hackers can set up their profile, save job posts for later, manage the job hunt, follow companies, create a hacker profile and so on π
Basically, the one-stop for developers to find their perfect job β¨
I just finished the landing hero, what's next is to design and code the actual job posts, make the signup functional, add a search bar and then create the form to post new jobs.
I haven't decided the price yet, but what I'm thinking is to donate a percentage of the sales to open source, which thanks to it we can build great products.
What do you think? I'm eager to listen to ideas, question, recommendations and feedback! π
Good luck, marketplaces are tough
Good luck @bntz! I've been trying to grow a niche job board myself for 5 months and it's tough to get them up and running. That said, it becomes easier month-on-month when you get a few users and word of mouth spreads.
Particularly interested to see how you implement the community aspect.
That's a slick design. I am always tempted to make a job board myself, but then tell myself that it's too late, it's oversaturated. I'm probably wrong ;) good on you.
How are you building it btw?
Thanks @pooria ! Yeah there are a lot of job boards out there, so let's see how this rolls, I have some ideas on making it unique and different than the rest.
I'm using React on the frontend (with Next.js) and Prisma + Postgres for the backend.
Also using a combination of Tailwind and styled-components for the design.
Hey, happy to collaborate :)
