TOPICS I COVER
HOW I WORK.
My approach to building as a solo developer
AUTOMATE EVERYTHING
If I'm doing it more than twice, I automate it. Deployment scripts, testing pipelines, content workflows - everything that takes my focus away from building.
USE AI AS A TEAMMATE
AI isn't replacing me - it's doing the work I don't want to do. Code reviews, documentation, image generation, content ideas. I stay in control, AI handles the grunt work.
SHIP FAST, ITERATE
Perfect is the enemy of done. Launch in weeks, not months. Get real user feedback. Fix what matters. This is how you compete with bigger teams - by moving faster.
