What it is
The Indie Hacker Reality Check Prompt is a text prompt aimed at indie developers who feel overwhelmed by the dominant success narratives in the community. It asks you to step back, acknowledge the hidden struggles behind any visible progress, and refocus on your own incremental milestones.
Who it’s for
If you are building a product, side‑project, or any kind of online business and find yourself comparing your timeline to the polished stories you see online, this prompt can help. It is not a tool that automates anything; it simply provides a structured way to generate practical, empathetic advice for navigating the long, often difficult, building journey.
How to use it
Open the prompt, answer the questions it poses, and let the generated suggestions guide your next steps. The output is meant to be a reminder that progress is personal and that setbacks are part of the process.
