In 2013, I was living in India, studying accounting and finance full time. I started coding as a hobby using online tutorials to learn. I launched FormCrafts (https://formcrafts.com) after 3 years of failed projects.<p>I dropped out of college, and spent the next 3 - 5 years living a nomadic life before settling down in Toronto.<p>FormCrafts is a bootstrapped one-person startup with thousands of users all over the world. I have no major expenses, and the revenues are over USD 150,000. I usually work 5 - 15 hours a week, but I spent the last year working on a major update (which is now live) so the hours are up to 35 +<p>I have no intention of hiring people or chasing the Silicon Valley dream. My plan for the next 5 - 7 years is to sell my laptop, retire, and open an animal sanctuary / yoga community.<p>I wanted to share my story, and the new iteration of FormCrafts (https://formcrafts.com).<p>Happy to answer any questions about tech, coding, mindfulness, etc ... :)
I don't want to dib into your success as what you did is <i>impressive</i>. Why do you call it a startup and not simply a business or a company? Are you aiming to sell/exit? If so, I would like to hear more about your approach to that.
