Bootcamp #1

To make some real progress on our ideas, we decided to have recurring "bootcamps" in irregular intervals. They consist of in person meetings for up to 2 weeks, allowing us to keep communication direct, quick & efficient.

If possible, we schedule them during vacations or public holidays, to spent more time on the project.
It helps to be working at the same company, with the same clients & projects, as well as work mentality & benefits. This reduces the disconnect during the day and helps us stay in sync.

Our first bootcamp ended up being 7 days, after we scheduled it up for up to 2 weeks. Other responsibilities came up and the intensity of the first days made us need to take a breather.

We spent most of the time setting up the basics, finding the name for our project, registering the domain, setting up our tools like Notion, Stripe, Swell & Google Workspace and email as well as rating our business ideas.

The rest was getting into the thick of Cloudflare Workers technical details, Swell setup & customization and discussing our pivots from idea to idea after finding roadblocks in our original approach.
During which we connected with the of communities of the chosen tech stack, started some discussion & collected some contact details.

We are looking forward to our second bootcamp, which will not be held in the same country, but digital slowmading together.
