Next week on Indie App Accelerator we will do a 7-day challenge to come up with an App idea, validate it, and start building. Seems that we can run it for everyone here as well. Are you interested in participating, or we don't need it?

Even working on my side projects, I always handle it as if I were working with a team. Having a structure helps me prioritize and ship more quickly. This removes the trap of thinking too much in the morning about what to do. It's essential because sometimes we have only minutes or hours to iterate in our side projects.

If you trying to succeed as an indie app developer, block two morning hours in a calendar to work on your Apps. - in a week nothing will happen - in a months you will start to see a progress - a year later you will be surprised with results For years I was working for others before invested time in myself. My side projects were left for evenings where I had low energy after day job and often was busy engaging with family (I'm married with two kids) Everything changed when I started to work for myself first and and only after that take care about day job and daily tasks.

Nowadays, you can learn how to build an app in a month or less. With all the AI tools, it becomes easier every month. There are two sides of the medal: - we can build apps faster, which is great - on the con side, being a seasoned developer is not such a big advantage anymore After reviewing the tech stack I'm using in my apps I see that could relearn it in a month or less. Building apps is easy - choosing the right ideas, selling, and marketing it is hard.

ASO is one of the most important part of the indie app development I just added >> AppStore Search Optimisation Masterclass << to the classroom. This is a lesson for more advanced Indie App Accelerator Pro training, so do not jump over the Indie App development 101 course and take it first. Follow the process: - Generate App ideas - Validate them <- you need to think about ASO and marketing here - Start building It is important to think about ASO and marketing in the validation step already. If you don't know ASO basics and making mistakes choosing App name and keywords, you making your indie development journey harder than necessity. Set a time a side on weekend and watch this Masterclass and start to apply all you learned in your current project. Check the video for additional details.
