How to Plan a Minimum Viable Product
A Minimum Viable Product, or MVP, is the smallest version of a product that still delivers real value to early customers. The goal is to learn quickly what works and what does not before investing in a full feature set.
Good MVPs focus on one core problem and a simple solution. They cut nice to have features, fancy design and complex integrations until later. What matters is getting something reliable into the hands of real users and listening carefully to their feedback.
Planning an MVP is not about doing a low quality job. It is about doing a focused, high quality job on a smaller slice of the total vision.
