I’m building an LMS SaaS

I’m building an LMS SaaS named eCourses — open‑source, community‑first, and designed to run cheap. Instead of hiding it in private repos, I’m shipping it in public: sharing code structure, architecture decisions, and failures on dev.to and here on Contra.

Building in public is forcing me to: - Write clearly about complex systems. - Extract “teachable” lessons from my own mistakes. - Grow alongside a real audience instead of in isolation.

What’s the most impactful project you’ve ever built in public? What changed for you when you did it?
