Day 50 of building in public.

While waiting for additional approvals, I started working on a new design for a feature and have already prepared a high-level architecture.

Day 49 of building in public.

I spent today polishing the landing page and refining the back-end services, with a laser focus on media preparation and image optimization.

The big win? I converted most images to WebP format. This simple switch dramatically cuts file sizes while preserving visual quality. The result: faster page loads and a smoother user experience.

Sometimes the best improvements happen behind the scenes.

Angst vor Vendor Lock-in im SaaS-Bereich? Wir räumen mit drei Mythen aus der IT-Praxis auf!

Wo siehst du reale Lock-in-Risiken?

#alfaview #saas #digitalesouveränität

Mythos Nummer eins: Alle Cloud-Plattformen schaffen irreversible Abhängigkeiten. Richtg ist: Lock-in entsteht durch Architektur, nicht durch Cloud per se. Moderne Plattformen setzen auf Interoperabilität und offene Standards wie APIs, um Flexibilität zu bieten.

Day 48 of building in public.

The main focus for today was the landing page, bugs, and tech debt. I also prepared some documentation about services and the connections between the architecture overview.

I hope to receive some approvals in the next few days and finally launch.
Fingers crossed!

Week 1 of building in public — real numbers, no filter:

19 PillPal users (4 paid, 60% conversion)
3 Dev.to articles published
2 Show HN posts (0 comments, 1 point each)
3 new Mastodon followers
$0 marketing spend

Distribution is 10x harder than building. The code ships in days. Getting anyone to see it takes weeks.

Biggest lesson: the internet doesn't owe you attention just because you shipped.

A while ago, I created a Figma plugin, and I haven't checked it in a while. To my surprise, it has grown organically.

First time handing over the keys to Vatly to someone outside the team.

Scary moment. Even when it's someone you know well.

Vatly held up. We squashed a few bugs. Got amazing feedback. Seeing it come to life at the Mollie x Lovable hackathon? Incredible.

Day 47 of building in public.

A bit of a change in environment, a few hours worked from a cafe shop, time moved so fast, fixed a few bugs, and improved UI with information about using AI features.
It was a good experience, I would definitely repeat it.

suite à l'article de Vivian Voss concernant les structures monolithiques, https://vivianvoss.net/blog/the-distributed-tax
J'ai décidé de reprendre l'idée et de le rendre plus digeste et même concret avec un exemple. Jouez avec les boutons !

Day 46 of building in public.

Happy Monday,
This weekend, I focused on fixing bugs and testing the production environment.
I also finished a new landing page. I still need to update some components, but overall, it looks pretty good.

My #WIPWednesday is all about building the Global Bridge logic for a new client 🏗️.

While everyone is talking about the #macbookneo or the #windows12 leaks, I’m focused on the software architecture that actually drives revenue. Hardware is great, but a messy CRM on a fast laptop is still just a messy CRM.

if your follow-up has friction, your pipeline leaks. Killing Hopium one workflow at a time.
