I love to use Jira as an example of why focusing on the buyer is important (since these days, users don't choose to buy Jira as much as say, Linear). Of course the idea is to make a good product that folks like to use, but it's su

I've got a couple of projects that make money, and the answer is: years of consistent work. You might see the odd "overnight" project launch to millions in revenue in one go, but they've been putting in work for years, b

I rewrote OnlineOrNot's API to use Hono + Zod (almost a drop-in replacement for Express), and got an OpenAPI schema out of it for very little additional work. I highly recommend it, and wrote more about it here: https://onli

I'm coming up on three years of running OnlineOrNot ( https://onlineornot.com ) in 3ish weeks. In short, I wrote about React from my own perspective for a year (despite thousands out there doing the same thing), made money, a

The specifics depend on the country you're hiring in. The cost of working out each country's requirements is significant enough that it's often a lot cheaper to use an employer of record service instead of setting up your own
