How to Build in Public as a Tech Professional

Hashnode

Remember how I suggested that you define your purpose in the previous step? Well, it makes it easier for you to choose the platform that will help achieve this goal. I decided to document my journey via blogging because I love writing. With this in mind, I wanted to use platforms with an easy setup and customization, so I chose Hashnode and Dev.to. If you prefer being on camera or audio, consider using platforms like YouTube, Clubhouse, X Spaces, or Twitch, so that you can interact with your viewers. Before you go picking platforms, there's another aspect of your building in public journey that you need to consider.

I wanted to use a platform where people in tech can easily post their projects and content, so I decided to use daily.dev.
