I'm so glad you shared this! Your message will resonate with lots of devs. Building in public can be stressful and make you feel vulernable, but I believe the positives far outweigh the negatives. You get to receive fast feedback on what you're building and that's gold. And perhaps even more importantly, you make new connections and friends, some of which might become lifelong supporters. So for me, it's a no-brainer.
It really is a no-brainer. It acts as both a way to stay accountable, create meaningful connections and open new opportunities.
I felt this post was necessary, as I struggled so much with the drawbacks in the beginning. But what we get out of it makes it all worth it. I am happy if it resonates!
I’ve been toying with the idea of building my fun side project in public. It still feels a bit uncomfortable, but this post gave me the motivation I needed to seriously consider starting, thanks!
I hope if there's one takeaway, it's that doing so is not gonna be without frustration and stress. But it's also a great way to keep yourself accountable, and to step out of the comfort zone.
I truly believe it opens the door to meaningful connections and new opportunities.
I'd love to see what you're cooking up if you do decide to start building it in public.
