How long do you think it took to come up with a prototype for Tinder?
A bunch of photos, a blurb of text, geolocation/distance calculation, you like or dislike a profile, and a messaging function.
The slight, simple spin on grindr - showing a stack you HAD to make your way through - instead of grindr's grid - launched them into the stratosphere.
- jschveibinz 4y agoI agree. But the use of the phrase MVP in place of the phrase “initial prototype” is what I am probing. I think that the misuse of “MVP” distorts the understanding of the long and difficult process of developing and marketing a “viable” software product.
