Episode notes

In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how a solo developer reached $10,000 in monthly recurring revenue with nothing but a command-line interface tool. They break down the surprisingly simple distribution strategy, the pricing model that made it work, and the lessons for indie hackers who prefer terminal over browser. Plus, a candid look at the trade-offs of building for developers and why the CLI niche remains underrated in 2026. #CLITool #SaaS #IndieHacker #SoloDeveloper #DeveloperTools #MRR #PricingStrategy #CommandLine #Terminal #TechPodcast #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #FexingoPodcast #IndieTech #Bootstrapping #DigitalProducts #StartupLessons #RevenueGrowth Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
