The thousands skills and struggles of a wanna be a digital entrepreneur (a short story)

All started from an idea, months ago.

To understand if the idea was correct I made some researches and it seemed good
I started imagining how I could built my idea, which technology for the Frontend and which one for the Backend

I began searching a template for the Frontend (I'm not so good in graphics, UI and whatever), chosen one, bought it, then adjusted for my purpose.
Same time I started with Backend, chosen a DB to record users (I used MongoDb free version), added libraries to check user registration inputs, have a secure login and make CRUD operations with Mongo

I bought a website name, selected the host, configured, upload the first version for a test

Now I needed to send email for a more secure user registration so, search engine, comparison, selection of one of them, sign up, API keys, setting up email service and addition of code to manage it on my project

Added more libraries to handle files uploaded from my website

My works are in AI field so I found a service to manipulate files with AI, so I registered, got API keys and implemented in my code

As everyhing seemed ok I searched for a payment gathway and decided for Stripe, so again, registered, got API keys, configured it, implemented in my code and tested again everything

Everything is ok but I need social profiles thus I signup on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube
Youtube wants my mobile number for registration but I've already used too many times for other test channel so I've searched for an online service that provide temporary mobile number, that's worked to me

I wanted to make short videos about how my service works, after some tests I downloaded an extention for Chrome that record video
For the post on social I've to admit to have used ChatGPT, I'm really not good at this and any help is appreciated

For an explaination video I hired someone on Fiverr and made the thumbnail for Youtube on myself using Gimp

That told, as you know and imagine, I've had struggle with websites that didn't work when I needed, email and sms that didn't arrive, examples of code found on the internet that didn't worked, depreciated libraries and so on and people on Fiverr who didn't reply or replied affermatively and then disappeared or delivered the work but not as I wished...

And everything to make something hoping someone will use
