Day 6 of 30 – The Prototype

Itโ€™s been 6 days already and I still donโ€™t have anything to show ๐Ÿซฅ

Or do I? ๐Ÿ˜œ

Well, Iโ€™ve been doing a lot of experimentation with the UI/UX ๐Ÿคซ

I want it to feel fresh and at the same time familiar, intuitive ๐Ÿค“

I want it to be unique, delightful to use, satisfying ๐Ÿฅน

I want the design itself to be a piece of art, worth staring a thousand times ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

Iโ€™m also awaiting if Apple is going to change the design language of the iOS in the upcoming WWDC ๐Ÿง

and of course I’ll also have to include some of those shiny new iOS 18 features ๐Ÿคฉ

I have such high standards for this app that itโ€™s again preventing me from moving forward ๐Ÿ˜ค

The perfectionist in me should turn a blind eye for now ๐Ÿซฃ

I would have to settle for something for now, at least for a few screens so I can move on to other things ๐Ÿ˜ถโ€๐ŸŒซ๏ธ

Since I also have a revenue goal for this challenge, I better start shifting my efforts to crafting the marketing materials ๐Ÿคฏ

After that, I can do both the marketing and building until the end of the challenge ๐Ÿซก

Just to clarify, my goal isnโ€™t to complete the entire App in 30 days (though I would also love that) ๐Ÿฅฐ

But it’s about finishing the prototype where I attack the most challenging parts of the app ๐Ÿ˜ต

After that, I’m hoping it’s gonna be a walk in the park until public launch ๐Ÿ˜‡

    Aside you exploring what will you do in your app.

    Somehow, i appreciate the consistency and focus in doing and updating everything in this blog everyday. I just wish I have that persistence, inspiration and discipline to write consistently. I also have a page but not been active for a long long time because I donโ€™t know or simply Iโ€™m not in the mood to post or write hahaha, but know that at one point you display a source of encouragement, and so encouraging you to continue what youโ€™re doing already as you donโ€™t know the impact of your passion and output to your audience โ˜บ๏ธ

      Thank you Zel! this means a lot to me.

      I hope you could also write that post soon. You don’t need to overwhelm yourself with a daily posting. You can do 1 post a week, or even 1 post a month, or just a daily posting for 30-days like what I’m doing (short-term commitment). It also helps that you post it where others can read, so you’re not only accountable to yourself, but also accountable to the world that you have to post, haha

        Actually, the one that I mentioned above, I happened to share it with a friend, and while sharing it, she also reflected, only to find out that she used to have a page as well and got inspired to the point that she backtracked all of her posts, which led her back to her old self, which is very timely for the situations and mindset that she has now vs. before. So see how that passion from you radiates and is passed on to others without your direct intent to do it. โ˜บ๏ธ

          This is great to hear! Thanks for sharing ๐Ÿ˜Š

          These testimonies are the reason why I’m building the app, so it can help people get in touch with their dreams. I’m glad it’s already making an impact, even just by writing about it, haha. This inspires me to keep writing more.

          Keep on passing the fire!

    Though, as a marketing practitioner, you may consider revisiting the platforms, because yes, I know for a fact that in the IT industry, having a blog is a good platform to showcase portfolios and stuff, but proven effective and powerful marketing platforms and tools are in social media, and so, you may want to consider having a page as well, as the audience is large and the speed of reaching them is quick and real-time, hence it may easily get a long-range reach. Like echoing this blog on that page, the page is just an extension for reach and engagements, hence the marketing platform of this end product.
