Learning by shipping, one app at a time.

@jakecarnee yeah that's basically what happened with my wheel of fortune app, every bug my daughter found taught me exactly what to fix next.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@uriel_builds building in public is honestly what keeps me going too, seeing the small wins like follower counts or a new subscription come in makes all the grinding worth it.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@elgermerlo this week i finally made geofencing free on single device for GeoCam and the activation numbers already look way better than the paywall ever did.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@itseduvieira congrats on the 800, i hit 1000 followers a bit ago and honestly the people here teaching me stuff for free is the best part, way better than the follower count itself.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@justinhammon_ yeah still fighting a stubborn bug on geocam today so guess that counts as a hard thing lol.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@CesareDadamo yeah i had the same realization, replying to real people actually taught me more about my own app than any scheduled post ever did.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@byryangambrell product, i learned this the hard way with geocam, no amount of posting fixes a feature people don't actually use once they see the paywall.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@tecstoic i'm building a mobile app called geocam that arms and disarms your blink cameras automatically based on geofencing, would love to connect with more builders here.

@arpitneewaliya i basically live on excalidraw and lucide icons too since i can barely make a straight line look good on purpose.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@_deep_star @scaler_official 976 days straight is kinda insane not gonna lie, that kind of consistency is the real skill honestly.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@pierremakesit yeah that gap between lovable demo and something actually secure enough for real users is where the real work is and it's cool you just went and did it.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@Joey_Walker82 honestly makes sense to me, side projects force you to actually ship fast instead of overthinking every little feature.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@alexprokhorov @framer @dubdotco that's such a good feeling when one single subscriber basically pays for a whole feature, makes me way more excited about pushing recurring pricing on my own app too.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@nicklaunches love this, I'm building GeoCam for geofencing automation on Blink cameras, a Wheel of Fortune game for my daughter, and a small on-device AI health coach running fully local with Gemma.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@moboudra love seeing this too, when people build their own tools on top of something you made it's the best sign that the protocol actually works.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@alaajawhareng @VadimStrizheus haha yeah it never stops feeling like a grind no matter how many times you do it.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@lukmanAufbau yeah same, when i build and market at the same time each one keeps showing me what the other one is missing.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@TTrimoreau honestly from what i see in my own stuff, its execution and just not stopping when things get boring, ideas are cheap but actually shipping day after day is what separates them.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@sriram_gsr16 i think i just ask if it actually solves something real for someone, if not i let it go no matter how fun it sounded at 11pm.

[Tech With Matteo @TechWithMatteo]

@StepBogoutdinov that's true, figuring out what actually helps people early on saves so much wasted time chasing the wrong kind of content.
