A job passion is the most important
When I was 16, I couldn't sleep. Not because of insomnia but because I was coding till 5 AM 🔥
Back in the late 2000s, Facebook was rising, MySpace was everywhere. I didn't want to just use social networks. I wanted to build them.

Your goal is to make playable prototype.
It is essential to focus on it rather than details

Chapter 4 of “Players Making Decisions” takeaway:
- To make game that could be sold you need to design game for players
- Ask yourself questions and write down answers about game rules, player goals, win/loose conditions

Chapter 2 and 3 of “Players Making Decisions” in one takeaway:
- problem statement is what helps you to build better games
Example of good problem statement:
"What it could be like 'play' a movie"
This creates mechanics blueprints

Chapter 1 of “Players Making Decisions” in one takeaway:
There’s no magic recipe for good game design.
- Make games
- Be ready to fail
- Steal knowledge from every field you can

Years ago, I made a video on why you should learn Data Structures&Algorithms as a dev.
I said: “If this gets 10+ comments, I’ll make a part 2 about why you SHOULDN’T.”
…Well, it did, oops 😂
Rewatch the original before I make the sequel:

Somehow made it to Day 100 of coding… and survived. Here is to 100 more! #100DaysOfCode #Python #Pandas #CodingJourney #SelfTaughtDev
I have completed Learn localStorage by Building a Todo App.
Excited to build more and keep learning every day! 🌱

If you’re showing up consistently, learning from your bugs, and still willing to Google weird errors —
You’re already doing more than enough.

I'm a total novice teaching myself AI-powered map creation—tackling geofencing and data layers with Claude, ChatGPT, and Python. Learning through trial and error and looking to connect with others on the same path!

I Built my own AI universe at 16.
Not just using AI - engineering it from scratch.
No degree. No team. Just relentless code and vision.

Today’s lesson:
Rest is not procrastination.
It’s preparation.

Built a simple calculator in JavaScript today
Add, subtract, multiply, divide, it does the math, and it listens when I click.🧮💻
Not a big app. But it's progress
And every time I build, I believe a little more in what I’m becoming.
One function at a time.🔢⚙️
#CodingJourney #SelfTaughtDev #JavaScript
Today I built interactive buttons with JS:
➕ Add to Cart
➕ +2, +3
🔁 Reset Cart
Just like Amazon (minus the billion-dollar backend 😅).
Felt good seeing the browser respond to my logic.
Code doesn’t lie—it either works or it doesn’t.
Today, it worked. 💻🛒🔥
#CodingJourney #SelfTaughtDev #JavaScript
Didn’t build anything today. No features, no bugs, no code. Just me, sitting with the process.
Some days you sprint. Others, you breathe.
But even stillness is part of the grind.
I didn’t quit. I’m still here. And that means I’m still becoming.💻🧠🔥
#CodingJourney #SelfTaughtDev #JavaScript
One function, one small win at a time.
Today I built a grade calculator in JS. It told me I failed my course😅 But I didn’t. I built something. I learned something, I showed up. I wrote the logic. And I’ll keep building.
The journey’s slow but it’s mine. 💻🛠️
#CodingJourney #SelfTaughtDev #JavaScript
Today a beginner wrote a JS loop that prints a pyramid. Just "+" and spacing, but it felt like building something from nothing. Not perfect, not big but mine. Every dev starts small. This is my start. I’m ready for the grind, the bugs, and the wins ahead. 💻

Progress check:
✅ Less Googling
✅ Better bugs
✅ Slightly more confident imposter syndrome

practicing fetch with smaller projects before making the weather app. so far so good

Day 1 - Building in public.
Decided to branch out to 3 services:
Accountability service: Keeps you committed.
Tech Assistant: Helping you build.
Soundboard: Helps you think with voicenotes.
All services will be published soon!
#BuildInPublic #IndieHackers #SelfTaughtDev #SaaS
I’m learning to code & building a service in public.
So I made SaaS Royal:
A service to help solo founders stay accountable and build momentum.
If you’re building or learning too → saasroyal.com

Dev Tip #412: Don't call a service... from itself. Yesterday me didn't get the memo.
Follow for more moments where I break things so you don't have to.
