This devlog is a brain dump, you'll be able to see my thought process on how I come up with a new app idea.
## Market Research
With Lift Card, I got lucky. I didn't do any market research, and I just built something that I wanted to use (and luckily others wanted to use). But now, I want to be more strategic about it.
I'm looking for problems that affect a large number of people, but haven't been solved well yet. I want to build something that people will actually use and pay for.
## Current Ideas
Here are a few ideas I'm considering:
1. **Personal Finance Tracker** - There are tons of these, but most are either too complex or don't sync well with banks
2. **Study Companion** - Something to help students stay focused and track their progress
3. **Local Event Discovery** - Finding interesting events happening near you
I'm leaning towards the study companion idea because I think there's a real need for better study tools, especially for college students.
## Next Steps
I'm going to start by talking to potential users to understand their pain points better. No point in building something nobody wants.
Stay tuned for updates on this journey!
