So in other words, since I'm an introvert developer, i'm trying to grow some balls to start reaching out to people.

Giving so many options, makes the boilerplate very fragile. I recently starter removing optional bits from my boilerplate, cause it became much harder to manage and made the generation very fragile.

Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Built a ton of side projects in the last 5 years with none of them going anywhere. Realized the distribution is a problem. So after reading a bunch of marketing books, I decided to give SEO a try. And after some playing around realized there is potential there and decided to automate this process for all my projects.

Keep struggling with moving away from building more features and focusing on marketing.

Recorded a demo today, will start cold-emailing and reaching out to people who hhopefully will find it useful.

Thinking about future monetization efforts and found myself liking Posthog approach for that.

Host for large companies looking to automate marketing, yet leaving it free (self hostable) for smaller companies that can't pay.
