Since I write lots of code, typically for me I find areas where I don't feel super productive. Some of those areas are interesting and fun, and I add them to a list of ideas. If/when I have time and motivation, i'll take a stab at open sourcing a library to help solve the problem.

I faced the problem myself. Couldn’t find a solution. So created one. Should have validated it first. But luckily after creating the MVP I was fortunate to see people really wanted to test the solution. How about you?

Instead of keeping a list of ideas keep a list of problems. Then u will be building that the world needs not what feel it wants.

I research trends and gaps, brainstorm solo or with others to foster creativity, and collaborate with my team and stakeholders for diverse perspectives. I also use tools like WorkBot to organize and reference past resources for shaping future projects.

I find inspiration for my projects from a variety of sources. I constantly keep my eyes and ears open for emerging trends, user needs, and technological advancements. I also love to brainstorm with my team and bounce ideas off of each other to spark creativity. Additionally, I make it a point to stay connected with the community and gather feedback and suggestions from users. Ultimately, the key is to stay curious, open-minded, and always on the lookout for innovative solutions to create impactful projects.
One of my go-to strategies is maintaining a constant feedback loop with users.
Understanding their pain points and needs often triggers innovative solutions.

Identify a problem or challenge you or others face, then brainstorm potential solutions. Projects often stem from addressing real-world issues.

@flora_diep How do you validate this problem you identify?
My co-founder and I came up with the idea for our current startup from our previous work experiences. Requesting data pulls and dashboards always takes weeks in the large orgs we worked for, and the BI tools are rarely fully self-service. We thought this problem could be tackled by the combination of AI-generated SQL codes and a next-gen user experience BI platform, and that's how Brewit was born!
