Why do developers struggle to market their own product? Because marketing feels like lying. We're trained to under-promise and let the code speak. But nobody reads code before they buy. They read the landing page. Ship the docs. Then ship the story.

@FastAPI and @djangoproject docs are both top-tier. FastAPI gets you from zero to a working endpoint in minutes. Django's docs are so thorough they double as a tutorial. Different styles, same result: you rarely need Stack Overflow.

Everyone's excited DeepSeek's chat is free. Fair. But the real story: the weights are open-sourced. - Download & run it yourself - No API costs - Full control Catch: you need GPUs + engineering to serve it. Open weights aren't magic. But they're a real option now.
