For years, I wanted to build something, but everyone around me said: “Startups are too risky. You don’t know how to code. This will not work”
I listened for a while. But the idea of creating something wouldn’t go away. So I started experimenting with no-code tools, AI-assisted coding, and just enough dev knowledge to be dangerous.
Now, after months of learning and building, I’ve launched Graphify—a tool that visualizes Notion notes as interactive graphs. And somehow, despite all the doubts and warnings, it already has 200 active users.
What I learned along the way:
You don’t need to code everything—you just need to know how to ship.
The hardest part isn’t building, it’s believing—most people give up before they even start.
Your first users won’t come from marketing, but from real conversations.
Would love to hear from others who started from zero—how did you push through the early doubts? Also, if you’re curious about Graphify, you can try it out here: getgraphify.com
