I'd like to share a down-to-earth personal story. This is about a med student who paused medical school, became a self-taught developer, and unexpectedly turned into a startup founder all to help the people he loved.
I took a leave of absence from medical school, not simply to build an app for my needs, but because I saw my loved ones suffering alone from panic attacks.
Hi folks. Yesterday, I got featured with my latest app, and I made it to Top 5 Products of the day
I won't share my app's link here. That is not the goal. I just wanted to share some traffic numbers and insights, so you have a realistic expectation of traffic once you make it, too :)
(GMT+1) - : +1.1k page views - : +1k unique visitors - : +1.6k views (how is it higher than landing page views? I still don't know) - : 213 actual users - : 4 HELL YEAH - : 130$ (VERY RICH lol)
I remember reading an essay by @rrhoover about how he moved from his native Oregon to San Francisco after university studies, where doors full of networking opportunities opened up for him.
I saw the same thing in my country after graduation. About 80% of my classmates went to the capital, where there are the most opportunities in marketing and tech. (Or they went abroad.)
Software serves a purpose it helps people get things done. But everyone s needs are different, and the features that matter most can vary a lot.
I work here @producthunt and feel lucky to be able to build tools that solve problems I care about. Now I d love to hear from you: What s one feature you d love to see on Product Hunt that would actually help you? Big, small, wild encourage everyone to share their own
Prompt engineering has changed a lot recently. I remember around this time last year, strict prompt engineering rules were a must. From You are a professional persona setting, to zero-shot, few-shot CoT techniques, these were necessary for quality outputs
Nowadays, it feels as if AI models do the engineering all by themselves without user input. They understand us well even if we re just casually typing (some call it lazy prompting , and I even saw a product related to this on PH)
I graduated 4 years ago, and I had the opportunity to go on to a PhD, but I gave up on that option.
Instead, I chose the "real world".
Many public universities in my country offer free tuition, while in the US tuition is very high, and people take out student loans that take decades to pay off.
Hello, Product Hunt! I vote for "marketing is more important!" Recently, building has become really easy with the help of AI agents and tools like Cursor(thx Ai). I think the time and money needed to create a good product have significantly decreased thanks to various SaaS programs. However, I still don t have any references to introduce to you ( ). I feel like I ve neglected marketing, which is more important than making the product. (Please tell me this is the real reason...) Especially for indie makers like me, marketing is the hardest part (I wish someone could do it for me! ). Making a good product and promoting it are both important, and it s a pointless debate. Still, making vs. marketing? What do you all think? And if there are any cost-free ways for indie marketers or beginner marketers to try out, could you let me know?
Forget the pitch deck for a second. This is about grabbing attention fast. Share your startup in five words or less. The goal is to be clear, clever, or just bold enough to make people stop scrolling. Who knows, it could be a good marketing exercise

I'm a newbie @mattt_lim (about a month old) and it feels like Product Hunt is playing hard to get with me
