The first alpha version was released to early supporters over the weekend. Like all alpha software, it wasn't without its hiccups.

It took 5-6 weeks to get the product to market, and during this period of time, a lot of coding happened.

I also built this in public throughout this whole time, letting people know what I was building.

In a "build and launch fast" fashion, I don't know if I prefer this cadence of speed. It definitely took a toll on my physical health as I stayed up late (a lot) to get code written and tested.

At the same time, once you prelaunch and take money from people, there's a certain expectation and you (as the builder) need to focus and get the product into people's hands.

Now that it's been 3 days since the product was released into the wild, I'm back at refining the product based on the early feedback.

This second time around, I'm going to pace myself a little bit slower to keep things more manageable (as burnout can definitely set in if one isn't careful).

Onward to more releases this week!

RamenTools was launched 3 months ago as a side-project.

And today we are 1,000 users!

Those are some huge numbers!

If you like numbers and metrics as much as I do, head to the RamenTools analytics page, all our metrics are public.

We are now 800 makers on Ramen.Tools.

It has been slowing down a little bit since the Product Hunt launch, but we are surely heading to 1,000!

We are 200 indie makers on RamenTools!

There are so many interesting profiles, stacks and tools.

Amazing!

After a successful launch on X, we are now 100 users on RamenTools.

While RamenTools is still a MVP, this is definitely a huge milestone for me.

100 makers, 100 stacks, that's also 500 tools and plenty of interesting data!
