MicroFounder - "I have no idea" 💡

MicroFounder

Many developers wanting to become microfounders say that they just don’t have any idea what to build. Our suggestion has been to just start.

Developers often don’t end up with the first idea as a successful product, but still, the first product was a necessary part of the process that finally led to The Right Idea.

If you don’t have any idea at all, it can be sometimes helpful to browse what other microfounders are building, or see what is for sale on MicroAcquire. And if you have some spare money, you can even buy something and grow it:
