My Daily Routine as a Developer

Each morning, I scan Facebook, Threads, HackerNews, and Google News for tech trends and inspiration. Instead of reading articles immediately, I save interesting topics to my personal Facebook Messenger as quick notes for my todo list—whether it's new articles to explore, fresh ideas, emerging tools, or tech news worth revisiting later. This curation system helps me stay informed without getting distracted by instant consumption.

When a new idea strikes, I jot down key components in my mini notebook alongside my daily tasks, but I prioritize finding a beta tester before diving into development. This approach ensures I build features that actual users need, not just what I assume they want. For resources, I maximize free tier plans across Supabase, Vercel, Cloudflare, Resend Email API, PostHog, and Google Analytics to keep expenses minimal while maintaining a robust tech stack.

I also maintain a Medium presence where I share my ideas, societal views, and observations on various topics. Since I'm not a skilled writer, I leverage AI tools extensively for blog generation to communicate my thoughts effectively. For article cover photos, I source images from Unsplash or Google image results to add visual appeal to my content.

This workflow balances information curation, practical development, cost efficiency, and content creation—allowing me to stay productive while building solutions and sharing insights that solve real problems for real users.
