- m_eiman 15y agoIs [Windows|OSX|web|...] development still profitable, this late? In other words, it depends on if you're developing something people want or not. But I'd guess that the fart app market is saturated by now...
- hvs 15y agoThe gold rush is over (thankfully). If you create something of value (a very subjective word) and are able to get visibility, you can be profitable.
- leon_ 15y ago> and are able to get visibility That's the big if here. If you can't get visibility you will make almost no money. It's a gamble.
- andrewljohnson 15y agoYes, if you pick an idea that people definitely need, and you execute well, you'll make money. It's riskier if you try to make something completely new (like Color) - if you just need money, then pick something that's a clear win. One example is Offline City Maps. I think almost anyone can go download the Route-Me mapping library, download OSM data, and make an offline city maps app that makes a few thousand a month.
