The barrier to entry for apps has lowered considerably. It's no longer Dev skills that set people apart. I think in the coming years the biggest advantage will be patience& playing the long game - not giving up even when it all seems to be going nowhere.Good thing take time. #buildinpublic #indieDev

I love this and it's so true

I had this with my most recent app, thought I'd got lost in the ether

That sounds perfect!

Highly recommend! 😄

Working on my app in wetherspoons with a pint of Belgian beer in hand... Honestly doesn't get better than this?! 😅 #buildInPublic #indieDev

Working on my next app which is a quit smoking app. Got a basic home screen up and running. If you were trying to quit smoking what would be something that would help you the most in an app?

It's so satisfying when you finally fix a problem isn't it!

Forgive the promotion (ew) but i made a completely free app to help ppl struggling with headaches/migraines. It shows patterns-what might be a trigger, and what helps.

if you/someone you love deals with headaches/migraines, feel free to share 💛

Thanks so much! 😊

Very pleased to have had 21 downloads of my headache tracker app in the first two days! Not exactly "viral app creates tech billionaire" but it's a start y'know😅

Ok onto my fourth rejection by Apple😭. They seem to discover new things each time. But in some ways it feels quite good as it feels like they're taking it seriously and I am a real dev?! Maybe I am delusional 😅

Ok app fixed and resubmitted to the Apple Gods for approval. Day off from work today so that means - wetherspoons and some keyword research/brainstorming my next app ideas. What's everyone working on today? Let's do this 💪💪💪

Doing Dev for someone else is a totally different ballgame though😭😅

So had my first rejection by Apple... This feels like a bit of a milestone right?! 😅

Back in wetherspoons, ironing out those final app problems before preparing to submit to the app store later today. Scary but exciting. 😬💪

Getting close to shipping now. Should be in the next week or so😬
The app is a headache tracker, which enables you to track headaches and lifestyle factors and spot patterns/insights. It's completely free. If you or someone you love have chronic headaches it might help you discover why 😊

It's all running ok now thanks! Just annoyed at myself for the ridiculous waste of time 😅

So yesterday's dufus move was to somehow uninstall flutter (?!) So now I've had to spend a load of time reinstalling the SDK and getting it working. Why does my brain refuse to brain?! 😅

Awesome!! 💪💪

Having so much fun polishing my UI today. I don't have a natural eye for design but I'm learning all the time and having a blast 😊

Ha to be fair that was the wrong word as I actually find it tons of fun 😍

Back on the indie app grind today 💪 steady momentum and progress wins the race... And some grub in wetherspoons also helps things along right?! 🌯😋

It's perfect isn't it :) are you working on stuff today? Or is life getting in the way haha

Ok Saturday which means two things: (1) a big coding day 💪💪💪 and (2) it's #caturday which means lots of Jasper snuggles. Kind of perfect day right?!

Haha I feel wine may be involved as well 😅

Have asked external testers (ie my poor friends lol) to try and break my app in any way possible and be as brutal as necessary. May need a serious stash of chocolate and cheese to prepare 😅

Love this :)

This is really cool. Love the design and colour scheme too
