Go from Idea to Launched Side Project in 90 Days

Over-engineering the solution because you are an experienced developer, leading to missed deadlines.

Strictly enforce the 'One Thing' rule. If a feature doesn't serve the core value proposition, push it to a post-launch backlog.

Burnout from balancing a day job and a 10-20 hour/week side project.

Schedule your side-project hours rigidly (e.g., 2 hours before work, or Saturday mornings). Take at least one full day off per week.

Building the product in a vacuum and launching to crickets.

Actively share your progress on social media or developer communities (build in public) to generate interest while coding.
