I’m a young builder working on a startup idea called Nexsap.

The goal of the platform is to help people discover opportunities instead of only finished products.

The idea is to show things like:

• business opportunities
• real problems people are facing
• early trends
• ideas that could become useful products or services

Right now I’m focusing on developers and entrepreneurs because they are the people who usually look for what to build next.

I started this project using modern tools (including AI assistance), and I’m trying to improve it step by step based on real feedback.

I’m not here to promote anything, I’m mainly trying to understand:

. if this kind of idea makes sense

• what people would expect from it
• and how it could be improved

Any honest feedback is welcome.

Hey r/founder,

I've been solo-building Nexsap for 3 months — a social commerce platform where people post and share products like they would on social media, but focused on selling.

Think of it like a social feed, but every post is a marketing opportunity.

Sellers share their products naturally, buyers discover them while scrolling.

It's completely free for everyone.

My question to you:

What would actually push you to try a new platform like this as a seller or buyer?

What do current platforms get wrong?

Would love brutal honest feedback from fellow founders

Salut tout le monde

J'ai 14 ans et je construis actuellement

https://nexsap.com

Au lieu de payer 100 $ ou plus pour des pub, tu postes

ton produit, service ou projet gratuitement

et les gens le découvrent de manière organique.

Soyons honnêtes — la plupart des pubs payantes sont nulles

et ne fonctionnent même pas la moitié du temps.

J'en suis à 300 visiteurs en ce moment, j'essaie de

atteindre 1000.

Hey! I'm 14 and built NexSap - a social commerce platform where you can buy and discover products through community posts.

Stats:

• 300+ users
• next,js/Firebase
• Live on nexsap.com + Google Play
• Solo dev - (I built this with help from online resources, AI tools, and the developer community. Not everything is 100% original code, but I understand every line and made it all work together.)

I need help with:

• User acquisition strategies
• Marketing channels that work
• How to grow from 300 to 3,000+ users

Any advice? What would make YOU actually use a platform like this?

hey everyone

im 14 and self taught in flutter and firebase. spent months building nexsap.com which is basically a social platform for product discovery

the coding part went fine but now im completely lost on the marketing and growth side

getting some traffic but 0% retention and i have no idea how to fix that. feels like i know how to build everything but not how to make people actually use it

for other self taught devs here - how did you learn the non-coding parts of building a product? like marketing user retention analytics etc

or should i just focus on getting better at coding first and worry about that stuff later?

any advice would help. coding is fun but feels like its only half of what i need to know

thanks
