The ability to turn ideas into software products is a great skill to learn. In this blog, I will describe what it takes, and how to put the parts together to create a software product without starting costs but with a subscription model and Firestore integration.

Whether you are a data scientist, data engineer, or in another field of software development, turning your thoughts into real working software products using only a laptop may be the greatest skill to have. Various fields of software development come together in such a process, from UX, front-end, towards backend development, data handling, visualizations, cloud/server configurations, and so on. It is a process of going back and forth. Challenging is to decide which idea to start with, and how to avoid (starting) costs until the point that people want your product. In this blog I will discuss different kinds of ideas to and showcase how I created and deployed SkyWalk using Streamlit, with subscriptions using Stripe, and data storage using Google Firestore.
