What are your biggest struggles/fears when you want to launch a product?
A few days ago, we discussed how difficult it was for me, for example, to create my first product.
In many cases, people struggle with money. But I believe that with the mass adoption of AI, many things can now be done at a relatively low cost.
In my case, it was more like:
Worries about "What others will think" – in general, the mentality of some post-communist countries is not very business-oriented.
The idea will not succeed (which actually happened).
There was bureaucracy and actually ignorance of laws + accounting.
What were or are your fears when launching products?

straight to the point: getting zero traction haha. Been building in silence for months, now I’ve got a full product but no audience, no network, no nothing. It’s like shouting into the void, and that feeling hits me every single day lol. Curious how others deal with that moment when you realize “oh wait… no one’s waiting for this.”

@matteo_lombari Who is your target audience?
@busmark_w_nika Indie founders and vibecoders mainly, basically anyone who’d actually use a boilerplate, but my main focus right now is solo devs and cursor/claude code users

@matteo_lombari Don't you think that developers could code the solution itself?
@busmark_w_nika That’s a fair point, but it really depends on who you’re talking about.
Developers could technically build their own boilerplate, but that means months of setup, testing, security, payments, deployment, and constant maintenance to stay up-to-date, basically rebuilding what already works.
Vibecoders, on the other hand, those who rely on AI to fill skill gaps, couldn’t reach the same level of structure and reliability just by prompting. saasap isn’t just code, it’s architecture, design logic, and production-ready standards already wired in.
(sorry for the late reply haha)
