you can write

clean,
perfect,
optimized,
well-documented,
beautifully structured code

but if it solves the wrong problem

it’s still useless

most people stay silent until it’s perfect

but the ones who build in public?

they get feedback faster they build trust earlier they grow as they go

you don’t need a launch you need a starting point

some days feel pointless like nothing’s moving

like you’re stuck in the same spot

but growth isn’t always loud

sometimes it’s just not giving up
sometimes it’s just showing up again tomorrow

feeling burnt out?

- you need more focus, not more time
- progress isn't always visible right away
- remember where you started and how far you've come

small steps count
it's a marathon not a sprint

remember:

working with translations in code?
install in vscode "i18n Ally" by Lokalise

- shows the actual translation instead of the key
- lets you jump straight to the translation file
- shows you a missing keys or usage %
- much more

it will save you hours of context switching

Build → Feedback → Improve → Repeat

Consistency and discipline are the key

Some time ago I saw someone shared porsche 404 page.

I really like those kinds of humor details, maybe someone knows other?

Translation: "We haven't heard of 404. We only know 911."

Most people underestimate how powerful AI really is.

The difference between using AI with context vs without is night and day.

Context isn’t optional, it’s the unlock.
AI doesn’t just follow prompts. It follows your thinking.

Start treating it like a collaborator, not a tool.

I built this simple but clean LP in just 3 prompts using v0 thanks to a super detailed visual prompt
Check the comments for the exact steps I used 👇

BTW It’s a fully working app to launch your waitlist for free no backend, no mailers.

Open GPT-4o → say what you want in detailed and ask for an interview

Then Ask for a visual prompt -> drop the answer into Lovable or v0

Job done in 90%.

I'll share step-by-step how to turn nothing into a clean, ready-to-host LP

Prompts I daily use that are powerful:

- Do not stop working until you’ve implemented this feature fully and completely.
- Answer in short.
- Improve UI and UX by 100000x.

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m building my first SaaS that transforms messy project estimates in Excel into a streamlined AI-powered interface.

Simplify tasks, save time, and stay on track.
👉 devtimate.com

I'd love to hear your thoughts about it

Something I learned on my way as a junior dev 👇

After estimating some tasks, always review it with a more experienced dev. You'll learn a ton, catch mistakes early, and grow your confidence fast. It helped me a lot.

Been trying to improve my English lately not just grammar, but sounding more natural, fluent, and confident.

Recently discovered Fluently AI where you chat with an AI teacher, and at the end, it shows your mistakes and suggestions for improvement. Pretty cool

Recently saw iShowSpeed’s IRL stream in China where he tested those live-translation glasses.

Impressive and honestly such a great idea. I’d love to try them out myself and understand how they actually work in detail.

Had an idea.
Didn’t want to build anything yet just wanted to see if anyone cared.

Found Lovable, dropped some prompts and got a nice looking and working basic app in 30min.

Lovable’s now my go-to for testing MVP ideas fast.
I'll share further insights on my app
