Now I realise most hackers develop their ideas as a side project while working a full-time gig before quitting to dedicate their time to it, but it was different for me.
I had opted for voluntary redundancy from my last job and came away with a decent financial buffer to support me (and my family) for a year or so if I wished.
Having had a dream of going solo and starting my own business for a while, I decided this wasn't an opportunity to pass up, and started work on developing agilemetrics.io.
More on the site and it's goals in my next update...
