Chidile

Hi everyone! I'm Ahmed, a solo developer building Parea Cycling , a mobile app to help local cyclists find ride buddies, organize group rides, and discover new routes. Right now, I'm focusing on my local area in Morocco to validate the concept. I recently decided to prioritize a GPX export feature over full turn-by-turn navigation for our MVP to keep things simple and scalable. However, I'm currently facing the classic "chicken and egg" problem of social apps (getting users to join when the community is still small). How did you overcome this initial traction phase in your own community-based products? Any advice on grassroots marketing or product features would be highly appreciated .

I have built plenty of amazing products, some of which are public on my GitHub (https://github.com/afrotechboss). But I always find it difficult to scale from there. I enjoy the building process, sometimes I even onboard a couple of first users, they love it, but after a while it dies off. I feel like I have a lot to learn. Any advice?
