In this episode, we dive into the dangerous "pre-launch purgatory"—that final stretch after reaching V1 but before the first paying customers arrive. It’s a period where the temptation to start over is at its peak, armed with all the lessons learned during the build. We discuss how to resist the urge to refactor your SaaS into oblivion and why shipping "imperfect" code is the only way to get the feedback you actually need.
In the second half, the conversation shifts to the challenges of maintainership. My co-host shares the hurdles he’s currently facing with his open-source project, Andurel. When you’re building in a vacuum without a clear signal from users, how do you decide which features matter? We explore the shared struggle of finding a "North Star" when the feedback loop is quiet and the roadmap feels uncertain.
