good mvp needs: - strict definition of hypothesis you want to test - simplest end to end flow to test hypothesis - identifying the right customer segment to perform the test (e.g. skateboard audience is a narrow subset of car audience) does not need: - anything else

More like 👇 My issue with the skateboard model is your target users are not happy from get-go, which makes things slower and harder Post v1: “we built a bad skateboard” Post v2: “we built a bad bike”.
