Original: From Idea to Launch: What I Learned Building 3 MVPs in 2024

Short summary

A developer shares lessons from building three MVPs in 2024, discovering that over-building before validation was the core mistake. They adopted a week-by-week framework: define a specific hypothesis, build the minimum testable thing, and put it in front of 10 users within 14 days. The result: faster feedback cycles and earlier killing of bad ideas.

  • Over-building before validation is the core MVP mistake
  • Adopt a 3-week cycle: hypothesis, minimal build, user testing
  • Use existing tools (Clerk, Stripe, Vercel) instead of reinventing infrastructure

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
