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: a successful person is just a failed one who refused to quit

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." #ui #design

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. waitlo.com

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 #buildinpublic #startups #ai #gpt4o #lovable

Building a landing page? www.landingfolio.com is my go-to for real examples & clean inspo. Saves hours of guessing. Just scroll & steal good ideas. #landingpages #buildinpublic #uiinspo #ui

🚀 Just created new app Waitlo with @mpoweredo.bsky.social - Launch Your Waitlist in Minutes completely for Free Check it out: waitlo.com Curious what you think so I am always open for feedback! #buildinpublic #startups #indiehacker #waitlist #producthunt

Hey everyone! Drop your apps, projects, or anything you’re building. I’d love to check them out 😄 #buildinpublic #SaaS #coding #design

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. Follow for more tips and lessons learned💡 #buildinpublic #aidev #promptengineering

font fluid css trick it makes your font-size look great on all viewports, i use it all the time in my projects! code in comment #WebDev #uiuxdesign #Coding

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 #SaaS #Startups #buildinpublic #projectestimates

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. #DevTips #Estimating #JuniorDev #SoftwareEngineering

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 #english #fluently

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. #Ishowspeedchina #ishowspeed #translatingglasses

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 #buildinpublic #startups #lovable
