My own two cents/story. I started law school in 2007. I thought of my (now current) fantasy football idea during my first year of law school. However, it wasn't feasible because:

• I was in law school
• I wasn't technical
• The internet wasn't as advanced as it is today

Over the years, I casually looked across the internet to see if someone has done my idea. No one had (maybe more appropriate: I hadn't seen an idea like it).

Fast forward to earlier this year. I finally said - why not try it? I spent maybe an evening or two detailing the phases of my idea, etc. in a Word doc. Then I said screw it, let's go. I literally just started working on my idea. I'm still NOT technical (although somewhat ironically I'm product counsel for a tech company - I do understand the technical concepts - I just can't implement them) so I started with Bubble.io but it was too complicated for what I was trying to do (leverage the Yahoo Fantasy Sports API). Ultimately, I spun up a WordPress account added a survey plugin (Tripetto) and we were off to the races.

So, TLDR: Just start and figure the rest out as you go.

Once you build it on your own, you'll get a bunch of ideas coming to you, and you'll have a much better understanding of what it takes to get to your end result.

And, in case you're wondering, this is the site/service I built with no technical experience: LineupAdvisor.com.

>Yes, it's still open. I set up a discord chat at https://discord.gg/g3rSD9VN to discuss this idea further. I also created a doodle poll to align on a first meeting time at https://doodle.com/poll/azgb526d88xkwqza?utm\_source=poll&utm\_medium=link#calendar

>I picked the Sep 5-11 week for the first meeting, please select as many options as possible that would work for you. Thanks!

We are building OrgPad for the last three years, bootstrapping it from our own savings. We added payments this September and now we are trying to grow the number of paying customers to make the project suistainable. It is amazing that we were picked for the front page of Product Hunt. You can follow us on Indiehackers https://www.indiehackers.com/product/orgpad, and help us by upvoting, commenting, and using OrgPad.

We have created a slack app which enables users to take anonymous feedbacks from co-workers. We are having trouble finding relevant customers before our Product Hunt launch. Any tips to go about marketing to get the early users?

Automations are always interesting. Currently I'm using later.com to plan and push posts to Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, and Pinterest. However, it would be great to repurpose or repeat posts (in a B2B context e.g., company founding dates) or have an API to automatically add and send posts to many social platforms.

- Ever been curious about the speed of a car 🚗 that just flashed near you?

- Are you an athlete in a ball-based sport? And want to measure the velocity of your shot? Or maybe your serve 🎾?

- Do you like challenges? And want to beat your friends at the most powerful throw game?

cSpeed is crafted for you then. It allows you to accurately calculate the speed of a moving object through your mobile. The target can be a car, a ball, a bird, or almost anything.
