I've finally released a prototype of my portfolio website:
https://t.co/YVApqWAfTu

It is heavily inspired by the portfolio of @cydstumpel

Also thanks to @bruno_simon three.js course!

I also documented the whole process in my last video: https://t.co/731O16a42J

@mukulneetika my hands would be sweating so much i would just slip because of that

I created a recap of why I actually build mensorai.
At this point it's still just a passion project, because I had this problem myself, but it's growing!

Try it out yourself, to build your YouTube knowledge database: https://t.co/1p5JcLN2ir

A lot more is coming!

[Rouven @truenevo]

@Official_HUFC I can’t

[Rouven @truenevo]

@rutu_3 I would say the ai is just as smart as the person using it. If someone with 0 coding experience and knowledge of how larger scale projects should be handled starts a project, it will work initially but in the long run you‘ll get more and more problems

A collection of coding, ui/ux and even more prompts for gemini.

Found this while looking for design inspiration, gonna test some of these out

For the past few days i've been checking out Da Nang, because I heard good things.

The city seems really modern, the traffic is pretty chill (for vietnamese conditions) and i like the cafe and co-working culture around here. And your right next to the beach. Coming back here

[Rouven @truenevo]

It’s definitely getting better, but without proper guidance it’s still pretty lost.

I’m so glad I learned programming before AI was such a big thing. Having experience how to manage larger projects just makes it so much easier and more efficient vibe code now.

You need real coding knowledge to vibe-code properly.

@KMkota0 This looks so sick

[Rouven @truenevo]

@paolo_scales started getting his stuff in my recommendations and he offers soo much value it’s insane

@RickGPunkt Claude Code ist mein Favorit

[Rouven @truenevo]

You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right! You're absolutely right!

Let's build something great while seeing the world 🌍💻

March 2025: I quit my full-time job in Germany.

Today: I'm coding from Bali (have to keep up with the clichés) with 2 freelance clients and building my own projects.

Here's what happened when I decided to burn the boats 🧵

[Rouven @truenevo]

If you're a developer thinking about this path:
Start freelancing BEFORE you quit. Build a safety net. Test the waters.

I got lucky timing if I'm being honest, because people from my network knew my plan and connected with with the clients I got now.
