Hey ProductHunt! Gather around for the journey of Younics, our tech venture that’s been nothing short of an adventure. Six years back, armed with laptops and big dreams, we left our monotonous jobs to start something of our own - Younics. The beginning was tough, with more coffee than clients, and more dreams than dollars. We freelanced, putting our skills to work wherever we could, making ends meet while building our vision. Gradually, the puzzle pieces started fitting together. Our team grew, not just in size but in spirit. We evolved from solo freelancers to a unified force of developers and designers. Project by project, we made a name for ourselves, turning Younics into a trusted brand in our home country. Now, six years in, we’ve hit a major milestone. We’re ready to leap onto the global stage. 🔥ProductHunt, we’re turning to you for some real talk. How do we expand our software development studio worldwide? Your insights, experiences, or even a word of encouragement are more than welcome in the comments below!

Amazing well done Michal and Younics and welcome. For me our team has been the most important for our success. We back each other up, complement our efforts and forgive our failures because we know that's how we learn. Software tools help but you need decent brains and attitudes behind them. We are launching today (7th on the list at the moment) please support https://www.producthunt.com/post..., cheers, Mike 🚀😀
