Ask HN: Blogs of developers building startups solo?

21 points by raunometsa a year ago · 15 comments · 1 min read


I love reading about the life of developers who are building startups solo. No team. No funding. Just developers earning money by building products.

Yongfook has a team now. Pieter Levels is mostly tweeting but I'm more interested in longer blog posts.

I love Herman's blog: https://herman.bearblog.dev

Do you know anything similar to Herman's blog?

Not a startup yet per se, but I am blogging about building a personal computer that I plan to manufacture and sell starting this Christmas. The next post is going to be about my adventures in trying to figure out how to work with labs to do electromagnetic interference tests. So far, it's not pretty, but should make for an entertaining, if cautionary, read.

    Very cool! Looking forward to your next posts! (subscribed to your newsletter)

    Would be fun to read about the process of building and selling it!

Being solo is overrated. You know what's awesome ? Being really small with only a handful of team members who help you keep everything running while you can do whatever you want or focus on growing the business further.

I don't know how to look for those small teams but Twitter can be useful.

    Small teams (also known as startups) are overrated. Solo ventures are far from overrated. We still don't have a 1-person unicorn.

I build browser extensions solo and would love to write about that at some stage. Different niche than most
