Very inspiring. I'm myself starting a similar journey with my first hardware product (https://getgumball.com) and it's really reassuring that it is possible to do something like this in "solo" mode. We hear a tone of people doing it in the SaaS work, but not so much in hardware - if anybody here knows other similar examples, I'd love to hear about it!

I’ve shipped out the first few units of my solo project a couple of weeks ago (a super niche tool for DJ's):

Feels good to follow through from a hobby project to an actual shipping product. Its been fun re-igniting all the things learnt during electronic engineering classes back in university.
What is an interesting contrast is that by day i'm a web/ios software engineer where memory and disk is largely plentiful, but by night i work on cramming TCP/IP + USB stacks and real-time audio decoding threads into less than 80KiB of RAM on a Cortex-M4 MCU.
Currently busy ramping up production of a small batch of units and adding checkout to the website.

I'm currently in the hobby stage of a project. It's great to see people going from hobby to shipping.

I'm very new to the hardware world but sometimes it feels like you need a big team to do it.
Great product!

Also would love to hear!
