make-playbook
Indie maker playbook for bootstrapped apps inspired by Pieter Levels' MAKE: The Indie Maker Blueprint. Use when a user is starting or sizing an app idea, choosing what to build next, building a minimal product, preparing a launch, diagnosing stalled growth, deciding pricing or monetization, automating operations, maintaining a per-app MAKE.md tracker, or evaluating whether to sell a product.

# MAKE Playbook
Use this skill as a stage-specific operating system for solo and bootstrapped
software products. It is an original checklist and diagnostic system inspired by
Pieter Levels' *MAKE: The Indie Maker Blueprint*; it is not a substitute for the
book. Keep attribution intact when reusing the references.
## Stage Model
Idea -> Build -> Launch -> Grow -> Monetize -> Automate -> Exit
