Ask HN: CTO to-do list for new software product startup

20 points

6 years ago

Looking to compile sources that succinctly present best-practices for starting a software product startup from scratch, specifically the tech components (codebase(s), infra, tooling, etc.).

For example,

"A checklist of all things to consider for CTOs of SaaS startups.": https://github.com/stockandawe/saas-startup-cto-checklist

"90 Day Plan for a CTO in a New Job": https://www.rajiv.com/blog/2016/04/19/90-day-plan-for-a-cto-in-a-new-job/

The goal is to define my own checklist/roadmap to build the code/infra/tools foundation to support a growing team of engineers turning a hacky MVP into full-fledged, deployed product.
