After a lot of thinking, you have finally come up with a [great side project idea](https://www.jointaro.com/course/build-side-projects-with-500k-users-coming-up-with-an-idea/). Now here's the problem: How do you bring it to life? And after that, how will you get anybody to actually use it?
That's exactly what this course is here to help you with. After going through it, you will:
- 1️⃣ Understand what makes a great first version
- 😯 Learn easy, low-effort ways to improve a product
- 🗣️ Set up the right mindset for processing user feedback
- 💻 Know how to build a smooth user interface
- 📈 Get tactics to acquire users organically
If your work experience isn't enough to get interviews, you need your resume projects to pick up the slack and the only way for them to matter is if they get a meaningful amount of users.
Once you get 1,000+ users, your project will be better than 95%+ of other resume projects. When you get to 10,000+ users, you'll start turning the heads of recruiters, and if you can get 500,000+ users like this course talks about, tech companies (including FAANG) will be banging down your door, eager to hire you.
