I'd be curious to know how many "slapped it together in 3 weeks" products end up thriving. My experience has been that any time I've thought of something that could be done that readily, I've eventually found someone else that already tried it (usually unsuccessfully). The successes I've had have come from long, hard slogs. May MeetButter meet better fortune. |

I don't believe you can slap together something in 3 weeks and call it a day.
We did it to gather market sentiment and feedback for an idea, any signals or signs to show that we were in the right direction.
Your MVP is the start of a conversation with your users / target market. Reiteration and pivoting your initial MVP based on user feedback will slowly inch you towards product-market fit. That is the long, hard slog.
In regards to building low-hanging fruits (hackathon timeframe ideas), some low-hanging fruits have deeper roots. You might find deeper problems that give you better insights on how to build something that people really want.
