Resources to help independent developers make money.
Making money from your own code has never been easier, but it's still hard. Here, I try to curate a list of resources to help everyone interested in making money from their digital products get inspired and give it a try. Be it 
monetizing side-projects, bootstrapping business ideas, etc.

Projects don't need to be big, actually, it's better if they are not, they just need to be profitable. They might provide a passive income after the initial bulk of work, and who knows, maybe even help you reach financial independence.

- IndieHackers (https://www.indiehackers.com/businesses)
 Learn from profitable businesses and side projects. IndieHackers is probably the catalyst for this new wave of interest on making an independent income. It is a collection of interviews to successful developers about their products. 
IndieHackers has been especially interesting to follow since it's been an indie project itself. Courtland Allen (https://twitter.com/csallen?lang=ca) has been very transparent about how he built it (https://www.indiehackers.com/blog). 
The last news make one think that the forum/community will grow.
- Barnacl.es (https://barnacl.es/)
 News for bootstrappers, not VC hackers. Hacker-News like forum. Peter Bhat Harkins (https://twitter.com/pushcx) started it in early 2016 and I've found it of great value ever since. Also, it runs on great software 
(https://github.com/jcs/lobsters), which is always a thing to appreciate!

 Lightning 7-minute talk by one of the most respected indie developers. The point Patrick is trying to make, is that solo developers can target way smaller and niche markets which might have low competition and be very profitable from 
a solo business point of view.
