Are you building in public?

Question

Which tactics are you using to do it?

Anbang Xu · Accepted Answer

Absolutely! I'm a firm believer in building in public and sharing the journey. It's not only a great way to hold myself accountable but also to connect with potential users and gather valuable feedback along the way.

Christopher James Turner · Answer

Yup, building in public means sharing progress, insights and learnings openly as you build your product or business. Not necessarily open source, but transparent about the process. Sites like Indiehackers, Producthunt, and Twitter are popular for this. I find it's a great way to get early feedback, build an audience, and hold yourself accountable. Plus the support from the maker community is 🔥. Highly recommend giving it a shot if you haven't already!

Answer

Definitely building in public. I’m focusing on using LinkedIn to share milestones and insights. It’s a bit nerve wracking, but the engagement and advice from others have been invaluable.

Natalia Demianenko · Answer

I am trying to. I frequently ask the community on X for advice on designs and features that I'm still planning. I document my journey there, sharing problems and failures, although I tend to stay silent about my successes. It always feels like they're not big enough to mention 😃
