I spent years in the hole, feeling like a fraud. I knew how to code, but I didn’t know how to build. I didn’t know how to turn ideas into real projects, how to make smart decisions, or how to get anyone to care about what I was building.
This newsletter is the unfiltered story of how I figured it out. It’s a weekly journal from the trenches, where I share the real-world strategies I use to build and launch my own software projects. No theory, just a behind-the-scenes playbook for building in public.
You’ll get my actual code decisions, architecture struggles, and launch strategies. But we’ll also go deeper, exploring the business and product thinking that drives successful projects. Because great software isn’t just about clean code—it’s about smart decisions.
Every week, you’ll receive a concise, 3-minute playbook with actionable insights.
