No longer hunt for work. Instead will spend 1 year to build product for my own customers.
Again, software engineering is such a great career, when you can create valuable things for others in case of crisis.
- greenpeas 4y agoThis is intriguing. Can you provide more details? Did you have customers prior to deciding to "no longer hunt for work"? Or do you plan to find customers/build a new product?
- revskill 4y agoI actually have enough credits from "potential customers", who always ask me to build products for them. One of main reason is, i told them, cloud products are shit (due to pricing, customization, and quality of codebase they made), but got no time to actually focus on building the product. So this is the time i want to settle down and make the progress for them. One example, they have no idea on how to build fast, secure and cheap websites!

- revskill 4y agoHi, thanks for asking. I know this is a hard one. Firstly, build your connection based on quality software. Find the first customer is the most difficult task! One way, is through friend connection. If a friend's friend is a boss at a company, then it's first good step. The most important thing, is you need to deliver usable software!
