I’ve built many side projects over the years — and none of them took off.
Eventually, I realized why: I was building for the satisfaction of creating, not for the people who would actually use the product.

That realization changed everything.
Now I build with one question in mind: “Does anyone actually want this?”

That’s why I created urur.dev — a platform where ideas are validated by real demand before a single line of code is written.

I want to help developers like me stop building in the dark and start building what people truly need.

    Validate your side project ideas before building. Post ideas, vote "Want!" to show demand, and get notified when they ship.
