Thanks for sharing thoughts, Vasil!
Initially, the header illustration you created caught my eyes. It’s so true for enterprise products! I had experience designing enterprise products and I’m a designer in a bootstrap startup. Your words resonated with me a lot!
I want to comment and thank you for the summary of the pros and cons of your experience. It’s definitely a challenging but fun journey. When design is not a top priority for MVP projects, it’s our call to advocate design for peer engineers, PMs and BDs. I’m looking to hear your thoughts on how you take initiatives in pushing design ideas in bootstrap teams! :)
