App MVP Design | Startup Vlog #3

In this video I discuss how I designed the MVP (Minimum Viable Product) for Creator View. By design, I don't mean what it looks like. I mean what features and trade offs I decided to include in my initial launch version. I also discuss how I come up with my initial data model for this early version.

This is part of a running series where I document the journey of Creator View covering the development, pricing, launch, income, customer feedback and more. Check out the playlist to watch the whole series.
