Wishlists

How it started

Christian Konnerth taught himself app development in university after being rejected for an app developer job. Instead of a to-do app he built a wishlist app because he was still using an Excel sheet for his own wishlist. He built it on the side for ~6 years (3 in university, 2.5 alongside a full-time job), growing slowly without traditional marketing to $150K/year, then quit his job.
