Product Hunt Wrapped 2025

At what point does a side project stop being “just a side project”?

Many products start as experiments built at night or on weekends.

At first, there s no pressure just curiosity and momentum.

But at some point, expectations creep in: users, revenue goals, support, roadmap decisions.

What's a tool you discovered through Product Hunt that you now use every day?

I'll start.

Supabase. Found it here three years ago. Thought it was just another backend. Now I can't imagine building without it.

Here's what it does for us at Rankfender:

Auth that doesn't make you crazy. We have users across 120+ countries. Supabase handles sign-ups, logins, password resets, magic links, OAuth with Google and GitHub. It just works. We didn't have to build any of it.

How do you finish your side projects?As a developer, I have a lot of ideas for my side project. I eventually started some of them but sometimes I never really get it done. I think a lot of people have experienced the same with me. Can you share some tips to get your side projects done?
