Happy 2026 🎊
I have been quiet but very busy building @jotsapp.bsky.social, moving pixels and learning new SwiftUI tricks. Nim and I have been testing the MVP with some close friends and we'll be opening TestFlight to more people 🙌

Been working on a What's New screen today — starting simple, but I have a plan to evolve it into something nicer ✨
BTW, I find What's New in What's you so meta...

Facing a small database dilemma while building @jotsapp.bsky.social - should I go SwiftData + CloudKit (what I am currently doing) or something like Firebase/Supabase? #swift #iosdev

This is so far the most fun, satisfying and delightful thing that I designed and built for the @jotstheapp's waitlist!
Very proud of this!
P.S. We are about to reach 50 sign ups. Who will be number 100? 💛 #buildinpublic

What a great feeling getting back to some SwiftUI. I am having fun with some iOS26 new bits while building @jotsapp.bsky.social after a super productive brainstorming session with my co-founder Nim. I wish we already had a first version of Jots to Jot down our ideas! #buildinpublic

How often do you review your old ideas?
And do you ever look at them from a different perspective? 🔭

I’ve wanted to start so many things, but kept stalling on confidence, validation and structure. My friend Nim and I are building Jots — a home to capture + validate ideas so you can ship confidently. Join the waitlist: jotsapp.com #buildinpublic 🚀

Working on something exciting 🔥 I have been noodling this landing page on Figma and now enjoying bringing it into life. This is one of best moments I love about building digital products. ✨ #buildinpublic

For the new project I'm working on, I had some fun building a Slack integration that sends a different celebratory message every time someone joins the waitlist. Can't wait to read them all 😛 #buildinpublic

I have been trying to wrap my head around the new SpeechAnalyzer API coming with iOS26. I thought it'd be easier 😅 and decided it won't make it to the MVP of the app I am working on. Has anyone had any luck with it? any alternative for live transcription on Swift? #buildinpublic

🫡 Day 100: Mission Accomplished… for now!
100 days ago, I challenged myself to come up with an idea and post every day about my progress. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions, but I’m glad I did it. Today, I'm in Japan using the very first app I made, and I couldn't be more proud. #buildinpublic

Tomorrow I fly to Japan. As I pack, I realised how cool it would be to have a packing list on Doko—definitely one of the top features to build next! #buildinpublic

💰 Day 98: First Dollars
Well, I did it 🎉 — I got my first dollar 💸. Just 2 days before my self-imposed deadline. I know this doesn’t mean viability and the road is still long, but it’s an incredible morale boost! Thank you! #buildinpublic

🌐 Day 96: Updating Landing Page
Updated Doko’s landing page trydoko.app with the App Store link and a refreshed (maybe still temporary) icon and copy. For full disclosure, I’ve only got about 10 minutes per evening to work on this lately, but I’m determined not to lose momentum. #buildinpublic

📰 Day 94: Icongate
Overwhelmed by 50K views, 100s of new Thriends, and 350+ likes on Threads yesterday. Received a lot of appreciated support, feedback and questions, but one emerged over all: my icon resembles other popular apps and feels misleading. How about these alternatives? #buildinpublic
