a business plan is one of those 'feel good for a moment' things. A business plan doesn't send you daily reminders and challenges of 'what to do now'

great idea!

True yeah. Thing is I've consulted on this topic, but the problem is that people get very inspired by reading an ebook or what ever on this topic. But what they really want is actionable daily challenges. Like 'Do X today' If you fail, go back to step 2. So software in this case is the only minimum option I think. But evolving the idea right now

hehe, well it won't do the work for you. But guide you through each phase. Idea phase > validation phase > how to build it phase > how to grow phase > etc. The same way Photoshop doesn't design the graphics for you, just provides you the tools and makes it as easy as possible.

So you think there is no value?

Launched a little experiment, reducing a huge consulting service into a micro-consulting-gig. Making it more accessible to the masses. Love to get some feedback.

ah yes tnx. fixing it

I love the keyboard next/prev idea, as well as your other points. Noted down and it will be there in an update 100% sure. tnx a lot!

It's not invitation only, can you try a different browser? You should be able to play around with it and access the course.

yeah it simply means 'School'. But tnx to mainstream media, it might have some negative taste to it unfortunately. Will have to see if I keep the name or change it.

The logo for madrassa is simply a glasses with a (commonly used) loop icon.

good call. checking that out

Both very good points indeed. Thank you.

1. Didn't think of that before. Makes sense 2. Agreed. Also will probably help with spreading the loading times etc. Need to work on the UI of the courses a bit

tnx! will absolutely do. Trying to get the concept right before really pushing it hard. I wish I had something like this for myself back in school. I might have not gotten kicked out after they bored me to death.

Tnx! The point of GIF is to not need plugins, or pause videos etc. GIF is not super efficiently used in this beta version though. Need to improve that.

this is some extremely valuable feedback! I'll dive in the code to fix it right away. Thank you so much for taking the time to post this.

Youtube is (unfortunately) for me most of the times the go-to place for learning something. Hopefully that can change. And yes... the project's codename can/might/will definitely change. tnx for the feedback

awesome tnx! will definitely do

Absolutely. Some of the sites brag about having 30+hour of content, not knowing that for many that's scaring them away.

Tnx! noting down the flappy bird-like-game course.

Just launched www.madrassa.co Where I try to tackle the 90% dropout rate that online courses experience, by reducing the 10,15,30+ hours of course material to 1,2,3 minutes total. Using the native language of the web (GIF) to teach Code & Design skills. What courses would you want to see on madrassa?

Tnx, that'd be awesome. I want to make all courses available for free, building a database of short burst courses for the web, by the web. Would you be able to give such a class/tutorial?
