Why build in public anyway?

Feature Gathering
Gather feature requests from the public
Your public know what they want from your product - ask them.
Use dedicated polls and chat features to figure out what they really want, and use it to deliver - better than any screen recording could tell you.
Let them upvote different requests and gather what your audience really need from your offering.
Get into the details
Show off your stack, chosen tools & sell the soul of your product
Encourage others, prove what your tech stack can do (or off the shelf stack if you're a no-code maker!) and help inspire a new cohort of indiehackers and makers.
Indiehackers want to know what you're building with - what languages, frameworks, payment/analytic platforms - don't hide it, inspire your following!
