About Build in public

Field Manual

A bilingual knowledge base for indie hackers, documenting the full journey from idea to revenue — built in public.

Everything here is organized around the five phases of shipping a product — Discover, Design, Build, Market, Business — turning "idea to revenue" into steps you can actually walk.

Content comes in two cross-linked forms: original articles & guides, and a structured tool & resource catalog. Articles name the exact tools they use, and tools link back to the articles that mention them — one connected web of knowledge.

The whole site is static, open source, privacy-friendly, and free of tracking analytics. Content is just Git commits, updated continuously.
