It’s my birthday! 🥳
Best gift? A full day off with zero meetings, just me and my IDE.
Some people go to the spa, I go into 'Focus Mode' to build cool stuff. Let’s see how many bugs I can squash today! ☕️💻

If this week taught me anything, it's that knowing when to SIMPLIFY is a superpower.
Dropping a complex feature to ship a working one isn't giving up; it's being pragmatic. Experience is just the name we give to our past bugs. 🧠🛠️

Sometimes the best way to solve a bug is to stop thinking about it. 🧠
I've lost count of how many times the solution appeared while I was taking a shower. Do you have a 'secret' non-tech activity that helps you code better? 🚶♂️☕

Back to some general tech exploration today. Beyond AI and Electron, I’m curious: what’s the ONE library or tool you’ve discovered recently that completely changed your workflow? 🛠️
Looking for some fresh inspiration to start the week! 👇

I just spent a week fighting with Electron auto-updates, and the result is bitter: I’m dropping the feature. 🛑
Why? Because in 2026, seamless auto-updates on Windows/Mac are locked behind expensive certificates every year. For an indie project, it’s a total dealbreaker.

Electron’s biggest lie: "Write once, run everywhere." 🤡
Building AyAIs v0.3.0 from Linux is a constant battle. Each OS has its own rules, and they’re all painful in their own way. What works on my machine rarely works the same elsewhere.

Why build a Desktop App in a "Web-first" world? 🖥️
While working on AyAIs, I realized some experiences just don't belong in a browser tab. Even in 2026, the browser has limits that only a native-ish environment can break.
Here is why I went with Electron + Angular: 👇

Change of plans. 🛠️
I was supposed to switch back to Viktor, but the momentum on AyAIs is too strong to stop now.
Pushing hard to finish v0.3.0:
🌑 Dark Mode is in.
⌨️ Shortcut management is way smoother.
✨ Auto-update is being finalized.

Intense week. 🤯
- Paused Sonskay & AnalogJS
- Back to Render for the NestJS backend
- Released AyAIs v0.2.0
Feels good to clear the desk and refocus on Viktor. Sometimes you just need to stop over-engineering and get back to the features. 🦅

Last Sunday, I quietly dropped a new app: AyAIs. 🚀
It’s a lightweight desktop utility that keeps your favorite AIs right in your system tray.
One global shortcut, and boom: Gemini, ChatGPT, and Claude are instantly available without ever leaving your IDE or browser. ⚡️

Pivot on Viktor’s migration: I’m pausing the AnalogJS move. 🧪
After testing it, I don't feel the framework is mature enough yet for my needs. The DX just isn't there for me, regardless of the project.

For my second side project, you'll have two options:
1️⃣ self-host and own your data
or 2️⃣ pay for the SaaS version for peace of mind
I think that offering the choice between "control" and "convenience" is the best way to build trust with users 🤝
