Hey forum, I need some feedback.
I think I`ve spotted a niche in which I can provide alot of value so I would like to hear your thoughts.
I stumbled on this awesome video

The guy really knows his stuff, he`s not biased and the information he gives is pretty accurate when it comes to development tools popularity and usability.
But is this really a 'practical' guide?
It seems to me that ALOT of people are making tutorials, courses, online bootcamps and what have you.
It all revolves around learning languages, frameworks, tools, servers and so on(I`ve seen seen some people refer to this as shovel selling).
Also alot of people get stuck in tutorial hell where they dont know if they are ready to start building their project or not. Apply to jobs or not.
I saw this in the fastalane forum, I also see it in other forums and FB groups I frequent.
People are learning the skills but have little to no idea how to apply them, they cant seem to figure out how to put them together after the tutorial/course is done.
A true practical guide is the niche that I`m seeing.
A series of articles breaking down the web/mobile development process.
How to start. Planning the app. Isolating your MVP features.
A separate article breaking down each popular feature found in modern apps, 2-factor auth, upload and image storage on CDN, multi language support, multi currency support, server side data proccessing, social share features and much much more.
How to properly structure a relational databse based on the feature you want to code, no more discovering hot water.
How to setup your environment. Why you should work locally until you have something to put up on a server.
How to get a good deal on hosting. The reason why you need hosting in the first place.
How to choose a domain. Where to buy a domain from.
SEO basics, command all meta tags and explanation what each of them are for.
How to publish your app on the iOS/Adroid stores.
Demystifying SSL Certificates, why you need them.
How to create a cross platform API which can service mobile, web and desktop apps.
These are just from the top of my head.
The endgame I`m envisiong now is to have a way for people to choose app features and get a list of articles to read in sequence so they can get a true step by step practical guide on building their project.
What say the forum?
