Lazy day today, really grateful that I have this challenge, as it gave me the push I needed to do some things.
Took my son to the kindergarten, cooked some food, meditated, studied, rode my bicycle. A nice chill holiday.
The app I started building is starting to take shape.
I worked on this goals page more today. There now is a user flow from home screen, to create goal (on the screenshot), to then next screen. Goals can be created, added and rearranged.
The experience of writing SwiftUI apps is amazing, so far, I love this language. However I wouldn’t get anywhere without chatgpt.
When I started doing websites, well over 20 years ago, I was taking existing ones and modifying them. Now I ask ChatGPT to generate something, then study the elements it uses and play with them and rearrange.
This is how I learn, brick by brick, I will build an app. I really hope to have it finished and working on my phone before the challenge is over. (in dev/test mode at least)
Also, if I do deploy it to my phone in test mode by the end of this challenge, I think I should buy the Apple Developer licence, finish the app and try submitting it to the app store.
For many years, I quietly dreamed of being a freelance iOS app developer/solo entrepreneur and did almost nothing towards this goal. Really grateful to this 33 day challenge for reigniting that spark.
I’ve failed so many times, I am almost afraid to dream, but having this spark gives me hope.
I hope I will continue this challenge, I hope I will continue journaling and being accountable to myself, I hope I will make my dreams come true.
