  1. At JetSoftPro, a software development service, we always, ALWAYS, emphasize the importance of MVP before going any further. Many startups want everything at once, without testing the idea in practice. This is one of the reasons why so many startups still fail

  2. Can we can use this jargon in the application? Serious question, esp when talking about background etc. Thanks for your vids, ESPECIALLY the recently refreshed application vid: I’ve shared it widely to potential applicants.
