Thoughts and ideas on how to build tools, automate workflows and speed-up the workplace.
Picture by Med Badr In this post, I’m going to show you EXACTLY how to make a web app. In fact, this is the process I’ve used, revised and perfected over the last 5 years. I’ve used this exact process, or a version of it to build over 15 applications of all shapes and sizes. For me, this is 100% the best way to build web applications. But, before we start the tutorial, a quick recap on what we define as a web application at Budibase.

I’m the cofounder of Budibase - a super speedy web app builder for makers. Over the last 15 years working on small to large (£15m+) projects, I’ve often considered what is success, and what are the good habits for success in 2019. I’ve poured my thoughts on to this page to help others in a similar position, develop successful habits. I hope you enjoy it. Photo by Drew Beamer Success is personal.

I’m often thinking of Micro SaaS ideas for my next project but most of the time they are either rubbish or I don’t have the capacity to pursue them. Instead of throwing all the good ideas away, I’ve decided to share them with you - how thoughtful, right 😄. This post is not a simple static list; created, posted, and forgotten about. I will revisit and update this list on a monthly basis, delivering you super-fresh ideas to feed your entrepreneurial hunger.

When someone whom you respect, approaches you with a business proposal, you listen. When their idea passes your gut validation, you get excited. When their vision of how a business should operate aligns with your vision, you fall in love with the product instantly. Your future brightens 💥 Respect, idea validation, shared vision. The 3 components of cofounder validation. Respect can be earned, but best when it’s natural. Natural respect is only possible through previous encounters.
