'I’ve always built things, whether it was creating furniture from recycled pallet wood or hustling for a bit of AdSense cash from uploading songs to a music promotion YouTube channel I’d created.' - @jlalmes

'The end-user or client of your product does not care what tech stack you used. They care that your product works, it is reliable & fulfils their needs. My advice is to stop procrastinating, pick a language and stick with it - and get shipping!' - @jlalmes

'I have a constant desire to spend my time improving and iterating on our product. However, I am learning, our time is better spent talking to customers, exploring new SEO and marketing opportunities and engaging in customer support & direct sales.' - @jlalmes

“If you build it they will come” - this is the cardinal sin of nearly all Indie Hackers at some stage in their founding journey.' - @jlalmes
