Honest advice here: if you want to launch something, forget about it being perfect.
Software will never get perfect but more imperfect, so forget the idea. Leave behind it.
Now, do a full stop and calm down. Hurry won't help you. Launching a product/software it's like a marathon not a 100m dash.
I can recommend two great books about creating software products:
Getting Real by Basecamp(free)
Product Design Sprint by Google Ventures
They have tons of advices and examples in how to start and build a software product.
Finally, if you have an idea, work on it but don't get obsess with small details.
Try your best to define a small list of tasks that would make your idea usable at least by your friends and then keep working on it until it succeds it fails.
Then take another idea and repeat.
Launch soon, enough features, learn from mistakes and keep going.
Thanks for the advice, I was researching about design sprint, it's a really interesting approach before MVP, really help to understand more about that do you want build and learn something about potentials users.
I'm working on design sprint for the idea on my free time, to have a small prototype the next week, and test it with some users. Thanks for your help!!
