Doing a startup is hard and unfortunately there is no one playbook or perfect method to do it right. Faced with the same challenge I had to go through the same struggle in my own startup journey. This edition is going to be really interesting to my founder friends. I am compiling all the best resources that I have came across in last one decade of my startup journey in just on single post. Most of these resources must be visited periodically again hence I mentioned that as well. Overall we will be covering the following categories -

Development
Funding & Support
Customer
