Not for aesthetics
Not for a perfect morning routine
Not for motivation
I'm doing it to rebuild self-trust, discipline, and focus
Day 7-8 / 30 of posting my progress
Had an annual health check-up, a meetin and have been dealing with a headache so it wasn't the most productive couple of days
Still managed to:
- Learn SEO and AEO: 1h
- Learn about using AI in my design workflow: 1h
- QA testing for my MVP
Have you ever wondered where your time actually goes each day?
For my @devanddesignhq bootcamp capstone project, I built InterLog.
A reflection-first time tracker that helps you log activities, reflect on your days, discover patterns, and get AI-powered insights.

#BuildInPublic#LearningInPublic
What I learned:
- Learned how to connect Nodemailer and Google OAuth.
- Continued learning on-page SEO. It's helping me understand the "why" behind many front-end and UX patterns

Day 4/30 of posting my progress
Today:
- MVP polish: 5h 40m
- SEO learning: 1h
What I learned:
- Polished the login and reset password flow for my MVP. It's interesting how small UX details like password visibility and copy password buttons can improve the overall experience
Need to admit that as a designer I never paid much attention to SEO.
But the more I learn about it the more I can connect it to front-end development and real client projects. It got me hooked.
Just one hour of learning the basics was already mind-blowing π€―
