Hopefully this is helpful for those overwhelmed not knowing where to start. There's a fair amount of posts from inexperienced non-tech folks asking where to start and you can quickly see the motivation is money and ease. Essentially: What are ya'll doing and whats the easiest/quickest way for me to get there with the least amount of work and make the most amount of money? Don't get me wrong, I'm a business owner, I get it you don't want to waste time on unprofitable ventures. My unsolicited $0.02. Don't try to shortcut or hack the process. If you're just getting started with 0 tech knowledge and experience, stop asking what's most profitable with least effort and just start building something you'd find useful. Keep your day job, build on the side. I like the way @David Vogel puts it as "garage tinkering". I genuinely look this tech stuff the same way when I started "garage tinkering" with woodworking tools. I didn't go in my garage and think hmm what can I build that has the best profit margins? I just starting building things I had a need for and thought were useful and that's where the learning happened. I guess what I'm getting at is if you're struggling where to start: 1. Watch, read, learn 2. Get your hands dirty and apply 3. Repeat Happy building!
