• Launching a SaaS as an Individual Without a Registered Company Targeting Businesses

  This is common pattern for many of our founders in Micro SaaS HQ. The easiest hack is to use Paddle where Paddle acts as your reseller of SaaS and your customers actually do business with Paddle on record. But if you are just starting, don't worry too much and instead focus on your first sale. Source: 7 months ago

• How to find SaaS idea when I’m new to the world of SaaS?

  There are many websites where you can find lot of ideas. You can choose from them. Choose ideas you feel some vibe for i.e. You need to have some kind of love for the problem to have the energy and motivation to keep working on it.

• How to add domain buying and setting dns record functionality in my app?

  You should check OpenSRS and Enom. As you mentioned this is your first project, I would highly recommend you to stay from this kind of things which would be hard sell. There are much smaller saas ideas that you can try to implement that has better demand. Also, please go though some good interviews on FounderBeats which can help you understand the builder ecosystem better. Source: about 1 year ago

• Build and then market OR market and then build

  Building in Public will help you on this. Otherwise, if this is your first time trying to sell something, I would suggest you to pick a relatively smaller product and do that. In most cases, it's better to start with landing page, build waitlist, talk to users and then start working on MVP and market in parallel. If you are looking for more simpler ideas, you can checkout SaaS Ideas. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Best UI design courses for hackers?

  I think the best practical approach for designing UIs is to download (and buy) Balsamic[0] and use that to design UIs. Cut through the nonsense of colours and pixels in the first instance and just lay things out logically and simply. [0] https://balsamiq.com. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Build Products that don’t SUCK

  Create a low-fidelity mockup or wireframe of your MVP using tools like Balsamiq, Sketch, or Figma. Or use an easier-to-use tool like Uizard, which also has text-to-design capabilities. Source: 11 months ago

• Starting Design Work in a Spreadsheet

  Just for drawing mock app screens, I have found Balsamiq[0] to be pretty good (you can do a bunch of stuff with the trial version itself). Not affiliated with them in any way. [0]: https://balsamiq.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Is there software for building out copywriting for a website?

  Balsamiq has been pretty good for me so far. It's super bare-bones so it's better for copy mockups than actual UX design. It's also a lot easier than Figma. Note that you don't have to use the default comic sans, but I do because it's funny. Source: over 1 year ago
