I am currently working on my YC application for fall 2026 batch and it is a bit overwhelming at times. I have a few question if you can help me it'll be a huge help

- How did you market your product especially if you're company is based on a framework you are building? Do you need stars on github?
- what all things do i need besides my product?
- should my product be market ready at the time of YC application?
- My startup is based on a framework I am building which will be sold as a service. What are the things important to my specific case?

Thank you for answering these question and if besides these questions if you have any suggestion or guidance, it is always welcome.
