Thanks

Made $314 in Jan 2026 from side projects (outside my 9–5).

🧹 Vacuu — $301
📝 NoteSLAYER — $13

Late nights. Weekends. Small wins.
Not life-changing money (yet) but
Slow grind > no grind. 🚀

#buildinpublic

New milestone for vacuu.app :
$176 MRR

Feels great to make progress with a new app 🚀

Found one of my first public tools from ~10 years ago.
An Icon Changer I built before frameworks. Before “best practices”.
Ugly UI, messy code but pure joy.
Just curiosity and a Windows app.
Some things never change.

#buildinpublic

Pretty happy with the growth of vacuu.app
Sitting at $84 MRR right now, mostly from organic traffic. For a side project, I am more than satisfied with this start.
Next stop: $100 MRR

Don’t sleep on TikTok organic
after I stopped coding and started posting videos for Vacuu. The result?

• 625+ New Users
• First real MRR bump ($65)
• $0 Ad spend

If you have a consumer app, you need to be on TikTok

💵MRR: $0

Started the marketing grind for vacuu.app on TikTok/IG. A few videos already crossed 1k views, so the traction is coming.

Found a few bugs in the process (classic), but squashing them now.

The plan? Post daily on TikTok/IG until one hits. We don't stop.

Change all of your "Loading ..." states to "Thinking ...".
And congratulations, you're an agentic AI startup.

Bob described recurring patterns not a checklist to follow blindly but many still treat them like universal rules

Unpopular opinion:
Nobody cares if you're a “vibe coder”, a 10x dev, or a senior architect.
If your product doesn’t solve their problem, it’s just noise.

Honestly, I see Liquid Glass as more of a design trend than something every app needs to jump on right away.

It is a nice visual touch, sure, but it is just a platform feature. It does not really change how Flutter or other frameworks work at their core.

You're missing out on opportunities by keeping your project hidden.

Share your work as you go—don’t wait for it to be “finished.” Build in public.

Subscriptions don't last forever ✨.
People churn all the time.
Start with one-time payments to get profitable, and scale with subscriptions (if needed).

You can just do things.
2025 is the best year to build

Build full-stack apps in seconds, not weeks⚡ YouTube video by X-SLAYER

I built a CLI that generates full CRUD APIs with customizable auth, role checks, and more using Fastify.

It also creates a ReactJS admin dashboard with search, filters, sorting, and robust auth options.

Full-stack magic in seconds. ⚡
