I am a solo founder. I am working on building a social app for immigrants/travelers. I have done research on competitors, market validation, created UX designs (almost done creating my prototype) and more.
My main issue is, I don’t have funds to hire/pay someone to do the technical work neede .
How can I fully create the app with no coding knowledge (currently teaching myself how to code)?
I need this so that I can get users before looking for funding. Please advise.
Using my experience as an immigrant, my app focuses on; a) one being able to meet other immigrants, especially from your country and/or city (using the swipe method). b) Attending events hosted by different immigrant/traveler groups. c) Joining different immigrant groups e.g international students in a city.
The same applies to travelers especially ones who are doing it for the first time. Most people feel “at home” or secure if they meet and interact with other travelers from their origin country/city.
Direct competitors; InterNations, Meetup, CouchSurfing. Indirect competitors are; FB, Instagram and X
