Ask HN: Can someone help me prepare to launch my side project?
This is my first time working on a windows client project, I started out by noodling around in Visual Studio and found that building an app with Windows Forms is pretty fun. It's progressed to the point that I think I could have something shippable around the end of the year. I am mostly building it for fun, but I think I may as well charge for it, and so I have questions.
> Windows specific: I don't really want to worry about product keys and running my own website to sell licenses. I think I want to sell it on the Microsoft Store for an annual subscription fee. Is there some reason why this is a bad idea? I'd love to hear from people who have done this before.
> I'm going to have business expenses soon, and hopefully revenues. Since it's just me, should I simply log them in a spreadsheet and file it with my personal taxes? I'd be interested in hearing from anyone selling their own apps.
> Anything else I should be thinking about at this stage?
