Hey 👋
You’re reading the weekly wrap-up Sunday newsletter of what’s going on in the Indie-Hacking community on X.
This is our 2nd edition of TwindiePoint.
Jaisal Rathee's "Insanely Cool Tools" newsletter, which was built using Beehiive 🐝, has been acquired. He just sold his newsletter 💸 and can't believe that shortly after selling, he was open to buying a new newsletter in the startup niche 🚀.
BIG NEWS - Insanely Cool Tools has been acquired! 🥳🤯
Launched around this time last year and it's been an incredible journey taking it from zero to one.
I'll be focusing more of my free time on to help more founders get acquired for life changing sums!

Wow, this is a huge milestone! I’ve been following Manoj for almost a year. He is a fast ship guy 🚢, and I love the speed at which he ships products. He quit his corporate job in Singapore and, as an indie hacker, he has traveled to over 10 countries while building side products 🌍. Now, he has around to hit this $100k milestone 💰, which is really big for a solo builder.
I am about to cross $100K USD in total revenue after leaving my job last year 🤩🤩
It's been a total of 11 months and 16 days since I left my job and went into things I want to do full time.
And I am extremely glad that I am about to cross the golden number.
This revenue is… x.com/i/web/status/1…

The tech stack for building products among indie hackers always remains a topic of controversy within our community. Tony shares which tech stack he’s using and why. People use the tech stack they know best. No tech stack is perfect; you need to figure out which one matches your expertise and will work for your project 🛠️. You need to keep iterating as you grow in your business 🚀
The tech stack I'm using to build my $500K business (and the reason why):
Web app:
- JavaScript using NextJS, ReactJS
- TailwindCSS, RadixUI for UI
- Deploy on VercelDatabase:
- MySQL
- Deploy on AWS RDSmacOS apps:
- Swift, AppKitThat's all. Very minimal. Here's why:

I just recently came across Sergiu's profile last week and learned about his journey. He just crossed $10K within 4 months with his AI directory. According to me, it's a really big milestone because crossing $10K usually takes almost a year for many indie hackers 💡
We’ve hit $10K in revenue! 🥳
Celebrate with me because AI Directories hit another milestone. When I started 4 months ago I never thought it would be possible. But today, it's a reality.
Time to continue with good work and help even more people to launch. 🚀 #buildinpublic

I sold my side project for $10,000! ✨🎉
Yep First 100 Users is officially sold
In less than 24 hours, and on X

I’ve been following Philipp for quite some time and have interacted with him on X as well. He’s really good at SEO, and his SEO Kickstarter has taken off. Now, he’s making $5K/month, which is unbelievable! Philipp's story is really inspiring. Check out his story covered by StarterStory 📈
I never intended to make much money on the internet
I was optimizing for learning online business
But I got lucky with SEO Kickstarter making $5K/mStarterstory covered the story of how I stumbled into SEO and eventually launched SEO Kickstarter
