MVP launch: Trips for Travelers
by Sumit DattaTrips are a set of Ideas for travelers as to what they can do, enjoy at any destination. Current focus is South and South East Asia. Interest (tag) based filters for now.
Example Trip (The Islands of South Asia): https://travlyng.com/trips/4/
Geo and Budget filters, Comments coming in July.
Trips is our first software+content feature, moving from a pure content site. We were discussing this since March 2019, and planning in detail since May 2019.
We plan to add 4000 Ideas (in about 40 Trips) covering global destinations before opening the system to community (user generated content). We are a team of 8.
Software is Python+React based.

I checked out the site and the flow seems intuitive. It's good to get an insight into your journey so far. Also, your software stack seems robust. I think it makes sense to add a featurewise roadmap on the site to highlight your achievements and milestones.

Since our goals for Trips are large, here are some other details for young teams that are interested in such:
- We have been struggling to find our product focus for many months
- We saw the constant need for travelers research
- We have already had more than 100 direct interaction with active travelers
- Trips itself has been on the back burner because of our own lack of focus
- We doubled down on this since May 2019
- Trello is being religiously used to plan and orchestrate content and software work
