A github repository for 1000 free ideas
License: MIT License
Languages: PHP
I was always thrilled by "idea generation mechanism" and how a business like Facebook or Uber or Apple can born from "the brain" of someone... A while ago I've read about the Idea machine from James Altucher and as a programmer I've decided to give to my idea machine a little structure and a way to ensure some sort of quality to my ideas.
This repo serves as container for my ideas.
My ultimate goal is to reach one thousand (1000, 1k, whatever) ideas.
We currently list 33 ideas, since I'm not taking into consideration idea_0
.
I'm an italian programmer. You can find some more about me @ https://napolux.com
YES. The MIT license is pretty clear.
Ideas are worthless, execution is everything, so, I don't care. But if you want to give me some of your millions, click here :D
If I stick to James' idea machine article I should end my journey in 100 days. I will not limit myself to a simple writedown, so it could take longer, and I'm currenly writing an avg. of one idea per day. So please do the math ;)
Ideas will be rendered as a .json
and a README.md
file. The markdown file will be the "human readable" version of the idea, while the json file will be validated using some PHPUnit tests and a CI system in order to:
(structure may change at my will, it's not set in stone)
To run tests you need:
phpunit --bootstrap scripts/build_md_files.php tests/
to build files and run tests.I can't guarantee they are 100% originals, the world is full of ideas machines. I can only guarantee that the idea comes from my mind. :)
Let's make an example: let's say I'm thinking about a dating site for fat people like me. There are already many websites out there offering this kind of services, but probably I'm thinking about it for a while and I've figure out a way for a viral marketing initiative like printing coupons for the service on pizza boxes...
Then I'll write it down as an idea.
Not original, not new, but it's an idea. And it's mine. And I'm giving it away for free.
Nope, sorry. But you can fork my repo and do whatever you want with it. If you have any suggestion, get in touch or open an issue.
idea_0
?It's a prototype for all the other ideas. I'm using it to validate my build and test scripts.
