What is your process of validating an idea?


Hey guys, I've been working on building a site, areyouinterested.co, that helps people create easy landing pages to validate their ideas.

I'm trying to make it as good as possible and part of this is making sure that it fits into the general validation "flows" that people use.

So my question is, what process do you use to validate an idea? Do you build something first, or do you validate first? Do you try to build a community before or after you have an MVP?

Hi there, I'd suggest to build an MVP first. Usually it's better to have something concrete to show to your audience before building a community. There are plenty of tools you can use out there to quickly build an MVP, please let me know if I can list some for you.
