- Wisdom related to manufacturing, production, supply chain, and design for physical products is localized. That's why the "Indian" constraint
- I have been doing hardware for a bit now, and there's just so much to learn it's overwhelming at times. Starting and moderating a community of makers is one of my ways to make the learning a bit more accessible.
- Meeting people at meetups and conferences is one of my favorite things to do. Bouncing ideas off each other on twitter as well is a close second. Given the constraints of a post-2020 world, I think places like this forum can help with quality community-building
- I'd love to have a place to document my projects. Personal blogs feel like Cathedrals. A forum is closer to a Bazaar - which makes a lot more sense to me.
What about you - what do you think this community should be about?
I agree with your points. As you said there is no platform customized to Indian condition that could serve to the hardware space till now where we could discuss and learn from each other. I hope this platform catches on and hopefully serve for the community in India better in coming future.
