[UPDATE] 10 days into building in public 🚀

Hi everyone! A few days ago, I shared my story here about starting again and deciding to build in public. The support from the ProductHunt community was incredible - thank you all. Quick update on my first 10 days: As I mentioned in my last post, I decided not to write a single line of code until I validated my idea and did some solid customer development. Here’s what I’ve been up to so far: - I posted in a few relevant communities to connect with potential users. - I had some great conversations, learning about real pain points and how people currently approach the problem. - I scheduled calls with a few potential customers, and the insights have been invaluable. Working with a daily to-do list has been so motivating. Honestly, this process reminds me of when we were doing some home construction a while back. Watching things come together step by step felt so satisfying. That’s the same feeling I get now as I make progress toward validating and building this idea. 👀 So, what am I building? I’m building a tool for content creators to find fresh, trending content ideas through smart curation—not just generic AI suggestions. If you’re a social media manager or someone who creates content, I’d love to learn about your content ideation process and ensure I’m solving the right problem. Would you be open to a quick 20-minute Zoom chat? Your insights would be a huge help! Thanks for being such an inspiring and supportive community!

Update your audience, community and followers on a daily basis. This is the core purpose of "build in public".

I like how I'm taking the time to really understand my audience before jumping into development
