In a smaller market, everything happens on a smaller scale.
No. Scale has nothing to do with market size. Though you picked to build something (not yet a product) that seems to lack a market (defined as people willing to pay for it).
In a smaller market, you can demonstrate expertise.
Its actually easier to demonstrate expertise on bigger markets, due to its density. A small market can only have so many experts.
In a smaller market, you can iterate faster on non-programming skills.
This is more of an attitude than anything else. Its not a big vs small thing itself.
One question I have to ask is why are you trying to develop a new kind of product on an untested market, when you can improve on an existing product and just focus on selling? You are still picking the most difficult choice. And the one that usually tends to deliver a failure.
Once again for everybody: Don't build new things in new markets. Take old things and improve them.
