<ul><li>Learning the tech will not only save you lots of money </li><li>It will ensure that there is no communication gap between the customer and you </li><li>You will definitely need a team after some traction but not at the beginning you and your friends are enough </li></ul>

Importance of knowledge of tech 

<ul><li>But if you are a student and you don't have a concrete idea or a business plan then the best way you can utilize your time is by learning to code</li><li>You might be from any background learning to code is not limited to just CS students anymore </li><li>This is the smart way of doing things as you will not only have the ability to build your own unicorn 🤯</li><li>But also will be a great fallback skillset when you stack up on your current skills and ability..... 😀</li></ul>

For the student 

You can't outsource the musicians if you want to start a rock band

<ul><li>It's really easy to say in theory that we will outsource the tech as an 18-year-old Indian student after some motivational video</li><li>But in practice, it's way harder and complicated </li><li>The first hurdle that you will face is no money to pay for developers </li><li>Then you will run for funds without even an MVP and any product-market fit </li><li>In this process, you will lose your precious time and if failed then you are left with no money or skill-set </li></ul>

Learn the tech 

<ul><li>It's obviously not the right decision to learn to code if you have the idea of the next big thing and you have a strong belief in that idea </li><li>And you have the money and contacts to get a team of software developers </li><li>This is very unlikely if you are just another student like us 😀</li></ul>

Not necessary 🙂

You will not become an entreprenuer by reading all the buisness books or courses but you will become one when you have a product that satisfies the customers itch
