Welcome to Indie Hackers! (Week of Nov 28th)

Channing here from Indie Hackers. Welcome! 👋

Here's how to get the most out your time here.

Make the community a better place

Indie Hackers is for connecting with like-minded people who want to build profitable online businesses.

To get the most out of the community, try helping to make it a better place. You can do that by starting and participating in interesting discussions.

If you start by giving, the community is designed to reward you in return.

How to start discussions

Head over to the home page and click the "New Post" button.

If there's something on your mind that you think will get people talking, simply type it out. The shorter the better. It helps if you ask a clear question in the title, or if you express your opinion.

Alternatively, if you read something elsewhere on the internet, you can start a discussion around that, too. Try submitting it as a link post. Indie hackers love discovering interesting new articles.

Good luck!

This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you need help submitting your first link post or starting your first discussion, let me know in the comments below.

Otherwise, I'm excited to see you the forum! Feel free to introduce yourself to everyone below. 🤗

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks to @brandonHacker I am invited into Indie!

    I am Jai, used to work in banks and fintechs. I love speaking on customers behalf.

    Worked on banking kiosks to virtual machines to apps to payment gateway, stood outside ATMs selling credit cards to heading P&L for a mutli mil $ portfolio to now a king my own thoughts but no money :) Left corporate jobs to take the plunge into trying out what I can do on my own. Tried selling military hardware to civilians, setup organic veg startup, sold drones for a living until corona2 blew them to bits. took a break, returned to start working on a food business villageaffair.com, yes, people still start non software startups! Its been few months and its yet to lift off it takes a lot, yes.

    Also working on building audli.io with an amazing new friend I made across the world! Built a cloud kitchen in 5 days.

    Have been helping people around in their startup journey as well, giving inputs to help them find customers, get off the ground. I think I am trying out too many things! Or too less!

    Thanks for the invite. So happy to be part of this community!

    I'm Dan and am a Product Manager in tech, but I've always loved coding side projects to solve everyday problems. Although I've built prototypes for 5-6 projects, I've only released 2 of them in the wild, and haven't spent enough time making them better. So, I'm here trying to connect and learn from others on how to turn passion projects into legitimate businesses.

    Also happy to provide feedback on your idea and project!
    Cheers!

    Hi all.

    I'm Carlos Forero, a full stack software developer who has been freelancing for many years. Currently, I'm developing and bootstrapping some SaaS and other Open Source products.

    This is a great community, and I'm happy, as a new Indie Hacker, to share all my experiences and get feedback. So, since today I will be very active here.

    Hi all,

    Arturo here. Used to work in consulting, specifically in AI and digital transformation.

    With all the tools available to corporate (zoom, teams, etc), there's a need for helping Frontline work productively in these times of labor shortages and supply constraints.

    That's what I'm building at https://we-rice.com, would love your thoughts.

    Hello, fellow hackers!

    I am Ken, a software engineer and aspiring entrepreneur as well as random side business-owner.

    I started a project back in 2018 to support an IRL game called BikeTag that combines the love of bicycles and with taking photos wrapped into a geocaching/scavenger hunt style game. I started the project, open-source, with the desire to provide a tool for a community that enjoyed grassroots individual contributions as well as being social with their "tags".

    Now a growing platform, which scaled last year to support over 50 active games of BikeTag worldwide, our project is looking for organization and a way to connect those who wish to support the platform and see it evolve with the project's ability to grow.

    I am an all hat-hatter on this project, doing everything from software development to webhost admin to volunteer coordination to project management to support to anything else that comes up. I am looking for others to learn from and to ask for advice on how to remain open-source and also ethical with our community as we move into an exciting new chapter.

    You can read about our project here: https://biketag.bike

    and see the games of BikeTag all over the world here: https://biketag.org

    Saying hello and excited to be here! (Thanks to the Redditor who sent me the invite after a post about indie projects)

    Hi there!

    I am Igor and I love to build things. Unfortunately, building things is not equal to selling them, that's why I am here :)

    Currently trying to find applications for https://dataquestion.io

    Hello everyone 👋! I'm Gaganpreet, I've been working on side projects since the start of this year and really excited to be a part of the Indie Hackers community.

    Earlier this year, I launched nocookieanalytics.com, an open-source privacy-friendly analytics alternative to Google Analytics.

    I also very recently worked on another side-project, wordcabinet.com, which lets you practice automatically created vocabulary flash cards using spaced repetition.

    It's been a great learning experience, however, I'm still figuring out how to move towards profitability. I'm looking forward to help and learn from this community.
