How to start a software project from scratch
Defining the idea and setting the goal
Clarifying the idea: Before anything, you must have a clear idea about the type of software project you want to develop. Is it a mobile application? Website? Or maybe a management system?
Problem Analysis: Understanding the problem that the project seeks to solve. What is the challenge faced by your market or current customers, and how can the application or software system provide the solution?
Setting goals: Set clear goals for the project. What do you want to achieve? Is it to facilitate operations? Increase efficiency? Improve user experience?
Study the market and search for competitors
Market Analysis: Research competitors or similar applications/systems in the market. Is there a need for your application? What is the difference between it and current solutions?
Customer survey: Talk to some potential customers to understand their needs and see if they would benefit from your app or software project.
Establish a work plan and budget
Comprehensive planning: Determine the resources required for the project such as time, money, and technical tools.
User experience design and planning (UX/UI)
Interactive Design: The design should be simple and attractive. Create a user interface (UI) that is easy to use.
Improve user experience (UX): Make sure that navigation is smooth and that the application achieves its purpose efficiently. Think about the user's needs and how they will interact with the application or system.
Development and programming
Building the basic structure: from creating the database and designing the user interface to building the basic functions.
Continuous development and maintenance
Monitor performance: After launch, monitor performance and use analytical tools to evaluate usage and interaction with the app.
Updates: Continue to improve the application or system based on user feedback and the latest market needs.
Maintenance and Security Updates: Make sure the app is running smoothly and has no security vulnerabilities.
