This course teaches you how to embrace the lean startup mindset to build and launch a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) efficiently.

What you will learn: • Understand the core concepts of the lean startup and MVP methodology. • Define your target audience and craft a compelling value proposition. • Design a rapid prototype using modern no-code and low-code principles. • Apply AI tools to accelerate copywriting and product planning. • Configure a basic landing page to capture early user interest and validate demand. • Plan a launch strategy to attract your first early adopters. The course begins with foundational business terminology and idea validation techniques before moving into practical steps for structuring and launching your MVP. You will read through clear, step-by-step written instructions that guide you from an initial concept to a live product release. Designed entirely for beginners, aspiring entrepreneurs, and indie hackers, this course requires no prior business or coding experience.

Matagal na akong may ideya pero hindi ko alam kung saan magsisimula. Dito ko natutunan kung paano i-validate muna bago gumastos ng oras o pera. Ang pinakanagustuhan ko yung paggawa ng MVP na simple lang pero sapat para subukan agad sa totoong users. Ang dali sundan kahit baguhan ako sa startup world. Mabilis kaming nakapag-launch ng unang version namin. Sulit na sulit para sa kahit sinong gustong magsimula ng sariling tech idea.

Walked away knowing exactly how to scope a minimum viable product instead of overbuilding. The validation steps saved me weeks, and I actually shipped my first version in a weekend. Perfect for first-time founders like me.
