The power to show ideas into software products is an awesome skill to learn. On this blog, I’ll describe what it takes, and methods to put the parts together to create a software product without starting costs but with a subscription model and Firestore integration.
Whether you might be a knowledge scientist, data engineer, or in one other field of software development, turning your thoughts into real working software products using only a laptop could be the best skill to have. Various fields of software development come together in such a process, from UX, front-end, towards backend development, data handling, visualizations, cloud/server configurations, and so forth. It’s a strategy of going forwards and backwards. Difficult is to determine which idea to start out with, and methods to avoid (starting) costs until the purpose that folks want your product. On this blog I’ll discuss different sorts of ideas to and showcase how I created and deployed SkyWalk using Streamlit, with subscriptions using Stripe, and data storage using Google Firestore.
