Indie devs: We made a Launch This Year invite code for you.

Hey. I'm Mikael, one of the co-founders from Launch This Year, a step-by-step guide to building a mobile app. Launch This Year was put live mid-day on January 1st, 2013 as a single page website with email collection.

About a week later, Lifehacker and VentureBeat covered us and we've now got over 20,000+ total members. We're hoping to create an awesome community of indie devs and mobile lovers.

We started Launch This Year with the goal of giving indie devs a list of action items they should do along the way to releasing their apps.

The premise is simple. After selecting the date you want to release your app, we tell you what actions you should be doing next to stay on track. There's a lot of hurdles when it comes to the App Store so our hope is to break this apart into smaller, actionable steps. The first steps are pretty basic: defining your project's problem/solution, basic app details, and setting up a landing page.

Eventually, we'll get into more intensive tracks like designing the icon, getting press, and App Store Optimization.

Launch This Year starts tomorrow but use "hackernews" (without the quotes) as the invite code to get immediate access today. 

Curious to know what you think.
