Welcome to Indie Hackers! 👋 (Week of Jan 5th)

Hi All, I am a software developer on a mission to go independent this year.

Hi there! I'm a software engineer looking to be part of the startups world, connect with others and share ideas :)

Hi everyone, I work at Tokyo as Software Engineer mainly working in Frontend. I feel very lost in life currently so I join this indiehackers hoping to have bigger views of the world and find out my passion in life.
Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

Hello everyone, I left the hectic hedge fund world of financial software development and looking to build up my full service technology center (maintechcenter.com) while helping my fellow humans with technology related issues. I have over 25 years of software/hardware experience and happy to share knowledge and ideas.

Hey I'm a web developer I want to create my portfolio to show my past work, launch my social media accounts for professional services this year and make at least three static web pages or small projects aside from my job.

Hi, I am a serial entrepreneur with many years of experience in software development.

Hi, I'm a startup CTO currently, and I think after many years (and a failed bootstrapped startup already) what I want has finally become clear. A bootstrapped lifestyle business, small, ideally if I could reach ~25k MRR I would feel like I have truly achieved something which right now feels impossible. I'm here to learn how to get there.

Hi! I am an aspiring data scientist and I would love to get into product development and launch my own startup in the near future.

Hello! I work in oil and gas as a programmer but my background is in petroleum engineering. the place I live is far away from a bustling tech scene so I decided to inject myself into the community through a Podcast I host. My passion is innovating with code and doing interviews with other people in the community to help perpetuate innovative thoughts. My entire inspiration driving me at this point is choosing to refuse living a normal life. ✌️

I look forward to contributing on this platform, feel free to connect with me.

Hello everyone, I'm a university student trying to pay my bills by designing and building websites for startups and businesses. My goals for this year is to have a small audience and at least a project per month.

Hi, everyone! I'm a mainframe developer, would like to change my jobs to web development. I'm new to web development, but I've released my first web app(django-starchart.herokuapp.com) last month as a side project. I would like to connect with highly motivated people here.

Hi fellas, I am a Ruby on Rails backend developer with more than 8+ years of experience including 4+ years as a remote developer.

I am looking for my next remote job/work/contract as my last contract is just completed. Thanks!

Hey guys, I have just registered and got a little lost, but trying to follow the steps (from start) to see where they lead me.

I have been working for big corps for almost 30 years now, 17 on Brasil, 13 here is the US.
I have got to the point were now I wanna grow my "moonlight side", do more for myself instead of helping my already RICH and SUCCESSFUL employers get even more money.

My plan for 2020 is to open a dev-for-hire company focusing on mobile/web development.
Out pitch would be an MPV product ready in 3 months.
I'm sure that we could accomplish that, just do not know yet how to communicate to some what an MVP is. I've seen companies going after an MPV as if the MPV is the end goal.

Anyway, I've learned a LOT on my tenure as a DEV/architect/lead/scrum master on my jobs, so I'm here to share and learn.

Some details about me can be found here:

Hi, I am currently working on a platform, ‘Dash It Up’ (https://www.dashitup.me/), where developers can create customizable dashboards as internal tools using different data sources like SQL and NoSQL databases or APIs without any maintenance and setup overhead.

Hey friends, I'm a growth marketer 🚀 looking to offer bite-sized UX / CRO / analytics tips to a broader community than "1-2 clients at a time" 😁

Hello everyone. For most of my life I have been a regular everyday normal guy working in Customer Rep jobs. Last year, exactly 28.01.2019 I decided to take career in my own hands and learn a skill that is marketable, scale-able and will allow me to build my own business. Also I was thinking, why should I not know anything about programming if we are going into tokenization era. That is why I started coding. I jumped straight into JavaScript and with the help of Team Tree House (a fantastic web resource for beginners) I managed to find a startup that wanted to hire me after just 3 months of learning programming. Exactly on 15.04.2019 I started my first job as a Software Developer.

I was so fucking proud of myself! I accomplished something I was afraid of in just 4 months of actually putting the work.

Now the point of the story is, I quickly realized that having this skill (of programming) I will be better of going my own way. Why? Because you are not limited with any contract. Nobody puts a price tag on your skills and yourself! Just think about it! How limiting a salary is, limiting your creativity. Making you fall into comfort zone and grow with the minimum speed possible.

This year I am starting a YouTube channel around programming, how to get into the industry, why starting programming is the right thing to do if you are changing careers etc.

Anyone willing to give advice on how to start that is very welcome!

Hey. I'm looking to connect with other entrepreneurs and learn about the online startup world.

Hello, I'm a web developer who's been full-time employed for over 10yrs. I'm getting really burned out on 9-5 work and trying to figure out a ways to earn a living without working for others.

My passion is creating things, I really like the process of going from idea to physical / virtual concept. I finally have some ideas I think might be worth something and I'm having a lot of trouble being diligent enough / not persevering against discouragement. I've honestly been really depressed lately and its making it really hard to actualize on the hopes / dreams I have.

I am finally seeing a mental health professional and getting therapy (for the first time in my life) but I still really struggle with giving myself credit and not being too hard on myself when things fail or don't go how I wanted.

I am hoping by posting project updates and asking some questions here I can begin to validate my business ideas and hopefully find a way to put some accountability behind my ambitions.

Hi IH! I'm a firmware engineer working on networking technology. I've got plenty of tech experience on full-stack development on a couple frameworks, lots of embedded experience, and generally pretty comfortable with tech. But there is always more to learn and maybe some I can contribute. I am poking around to see what it would take to truly learn the business side and turn some of my pet projects into something profitable.

Hi! I am a senior software architect at a huge German company mostly doing software in Java, C#, JavaScript and React.

Hello IH world! Former 6th grade teacher here who grew frustrated with the lack of creative opportunities for 3rd, 4th, 5th, & 6th grade students. I created Story Squad to give kids a chance to team up and publish creative stories/comics/illustrations in a gamified, points-based app. We also run FREE "Story Contests" to get kids writing on the weekends (on Twitter: @story_hq). If you're a parent, I'd absolutely love to chat about your kiddos' creativity as well as how you monitor / regulate their screen-time when home. :)

Hi there! I'm an engineer who wants to check what smart people do these days... :)

First off @rosiesherry I love what you and team have built. Often it feels so isolating to build in a vacuum. To have a quality community like this is #epic. So happy to have "stumbled upon" your website. My goals this year: Launch the innovate commerce platform (that I built) that champions best in class independent brands (as an iOS app first, with a fast follow to a responsive website). Do this with sustainable power and build a moat. I am an expert in branding, storytelling and community building. I am also looking for the right technical co-founder, whether that is a rockstar product manger, a talented UX / UI designer with a deep understanding of users and testing, or a developer who is interested not only in code, but leading a team (and not all are, I get it). The co-founder can live anywhere. Thank you. Atlas7 from NYC
