App is ready! 🚀🥳

It took 10 days around 9-5 😎

Not too shabby for the first React Native app 😅

Girlfriend requested an update to her favorite game, Pet-a-Cat 🐱

So... I guess, that's what I'm building next 😅

Home from a fun local tech event 💻

Received a cool looking notebook to plan my upcoming projects 🥰

Already excited for the next one 🥳

How cool would it be to have a small group chat of like-minded people where you..

✅ Share ideas & progress
✅ Support each other
✅ Keep each other accountable
❌ No selling to each other

Does this exist? Would you want it? 🤔

Decided to dust off my old Mac mini.. 🧹

Have read so much about Clawdbot (Moltbot) that I now have to try it for myself 😇

Have you used it? For what?

Made me wonder how many apps/games have hidden secret debug tools that users just haven't discovered yet 🤔

Your product explodes, but the success didn't come from building in public..

Would you continue sharing openly?

Or start keeping your secrets? 👀

Just logged into @beehiiv.com after forgetting about it for ages 🙈

Maybe I should actually.. you know.. send a newsletter? 😅

Can't believe how much actually goes into even tiny apps..

I'm building a "simple" weight tracker..

And.. nothing is simple 🙈
