If you’re building something open-source or trying to monetize it, happy to swap notes or share more behind the scenes. And if you're a dev who loves ER diagrams - check out ChartDB ✌️.

Still feels like growth is slower than it should be. Curious for any advice on:.• Reducing churn at early stages.• Scaling from $1K → $5K MRR.• Growing presence on X / Reddit / forums.• Staying sane while building in public 😅.

What we’re working on next:.• AI assistant to help users “talk to their diagram” (add indexes, FKs, styling).• Partnerships with other dev tools.• API key to sync diagrams from your CI.• UX polish & onboarding flows.

Lesson 3: Content > Cold Outreach.We hit Hacker News a few times just by writing dev-focused blog posts. No ads. No outreach. No automation. If you’re short on time: writing 2–3 good posts > 100 cold DMs.
