After spending months of researching online, and asking people for suggestions, I built this list to help fellow makers like you to do more user research and testing and build a product your users will love!
Get 1% better at UX every month It’s Jim here, a UX coach and IndieHacker 👋 Every month I write UX tips and examples to empower you to ship products that are easy-to-use. They are short, sweet, and practical! 650 makers have joined already - We would me more than happy to have you onboard! ✨ Subscribe for free P.S. Here is one of the articles I shared in the past.
