Failed in Public - Day 4: The Punch. I was supposed to be sharing my launch link today. Instead, I'm sharing this. A few hours ago, a critical, show-stopper bug appeared out of nowhere. The core of my app just... broke. My first instinct was to panic. My second was to give up and delay the launch indefinitely. But that's not what this 'Failed in Public' journey is about. It's not about avoiding punches; it's about learning to take them and get back up. So, the launch is on hold. Not cancelled. On hold. Today is not about marketing. Today is about engineering. Today is about a solo founder going to war against a single, ugly, miserable bug. I don't know if it will take a day or a week to fix. But I will fix it. And then, we will launch. The fight is on.

Me: I’ll fix that bug in 5 minutes. Also me, 6 hours later: I’ve rewritten half the app, questioned my life choices, and the bug is now a feature. #DeveloperHumor #CodingLife #SendHelp

Well, today was the big launch day for my open-source Flutter tool, Crazzy. And to be brutally honest, it was a complete failure. Zero stars, zero users, zero downloads. It's a gut punch after 3 months of non-stop work, and for a second I thought abo

Freshworks announced a layoff. Stock up 30%. This is a feature of capitalism. Not a bug.
