I dont think people recognise the amount of skill and effort to #1 build this app, but #2 put this video together, #3 do them both in the quality they have been done You are going places!!!!!
I also have the problem with having great enthusiasm in the beginning but getting bored and lazy quickly, but I have some tips to help with that: 1. Break the project into smaller milestones 2. Set realistic goals 3. Build a routine 4. Hold accountability 5. Reflect and adapt And also if you hold yourself accountable for it and tell others about it, you start to feel a need to get the project you were talking about finished, which has helped me a lot.
I loved two major things 1. You took a real world problem and tried to solve it 2. The simplicity yet effectiveness of this app could be used into a complex application that provides variety of features including stretching
I can't NOT try to solve the problem I'm personally facing - it's the whole reason why I started making apps! Thanks for enjoying it, I just posted another video, solving another problem I have. hope you like that one too!
Thanks for the tour around the city! Key lesson I learned as a student founder, and from joining VC firms: - as soon as you have the vision, in this case the figma - start selling your idea to users before development - some may love it, some maybe meh, some might hate it - throughout the process u either scope down your audience, your features, your priorities and making yourself lean, fast and most importantly accurately relevant! Keep up the work man!😊 supporting from Malaysia
Awesome insights! Truly key ingredients to build products that sell :) I have a couple profitable apps that I built that way :) This stretch app was more of a practice on how to take videos of building a product! It would be really awesome if I can show the full 0-1 process for an actual product but i think that will have to be a series haha. Thanks for watching, and there's many more to come!
This gives me so much encouragement, it's so down to earth and not showy or pushy like other solopreneur coding videos. I'll be following this channel as I build an app over the next months! Maybe you could explore doing live co-coding sessions?
Love this man, very inspirational. Been building an app of my own for the past few months and even though it's near the end, would love to do a video like this at some point. Excited to see your next vid 👀
Hey Lucas, What an App! A possible improvement: enable protractor view in the review screen where you can see your progress throughout the challenge, some users may go back to see that their entry might have been off or may want to add extra notes to a particular day
Thank you so much for the suggestion! Yes this app was more or less an mvp, so there's much work to be done! Actually found a project that aligns with this one so i've pivoted to work with a team! I also just dropped a brand new video btw if you wanna check that one out too!
building is the easy part. building something people are willing to pay for and marketing your product so people buy it is the hardest. your app is looking great good luck !
hahah thanks for the kind words :) I realized documenting publically is this only way to push myself to finish a project :) I just posted another video finishing a project, hope you like that one too!
Yes, I will start to make a bit more technical videos between these larger episodes! Thanks for the suggestion! (I just dropped another 'large' episode if you wanna go check it out)
You 're sooooo inspiring me Lucas!!! Really love the content and how you bring all the shoot together during your explanation about this project !! Keep going!!
Thank you for your video, I think almost the developers have the same feeling about having a lot of ideas but 0 completed. It's nice to see how your workflow is.
Yeah! Making videos about it really helped me too. Just dropped a new video making another app profitable, so be sure to check that out too! Thanks for watching :)
I can relate to the same problem of starting a project and not having enough motivation to finish it or not finishing it due to your perfectionism and it gets very frustrating. It gives me a new perspective of trying to finish things even if they are not perfect.
I really liked the way you also shared your thought process behind the during the building, also would love to know about your more projects and tech stacks that you work on :)
It's always good to be able to 'see' the progress. I personally don't like the backend part so I'm like "let's get that out of the way". But in my new video, I actually focused on UI part first too! Check it out :)
I finished a video by focusing for the first time. I got inspired and become motived, especially at the end part. I'm learning Flutter and now, I learnt that a finished project is better than 372 unfinished ones. I want to try finishing :) and I subscribed too
I love your insight into how choosing an AI model is like choosing a clothing brand - this is my first vid from your channel and I'm loving it - subscribed! :)
Hahaha it really is, and their performance always changes (like the quality of clothing brands) so I try them all every once in a while. I have a new video out so check that out too!
I'm late to the party here, but I totally get your "guess I'm a Claude person now" instead of chatgpt saying "your error lays here" Claude jumps in like "ah I see the problem now" and it's that slight change that warms my lonely heart 🙈
2:45 From what I know (I'm basing this off of some other dude who made lots of money making apps)... "As a developer" and a "user", yes the paywall is annoying. But why they keep doing it is that statistically, it is what works and what makes money. Higher rate of success when an app does it, possibly because we're forgetting one thing: "Paying user" isn't the same as "Developer and user" (which is generally an "I don't want to pay for this" type of combination lol)... And the "paying user" who completes the onboarding + signs up is most curated to be the paying customer at the end of the day.
Really loving what you did man! Honestly at the start when you started speaking about creators and those challenges I figured you would create something for them, like a hub where they could create these challenges and share them with their followers with a link or smth. But honestly loving what you did, bring it on and I would love more content from you
I had a whole social feature part in the original video - turns out people stop watching through that so I took it out haha. I'll make it more interesting next time :)
I've recently finished watching some coding tutorials and I'm kinda scared to step out of the tutorial loop, but this video really inspired me! Your work was great. New subscriber here!
Haha thanks! I did start as a designer, then became a product manager :) Thanks for watching! I also just dropped a brand new video btw if you wanna check that one out too!
Yeah I have lots of unfinished projects in my pc as well.......can't delete them, don't have the motivation to complete either and don't wanna push an half-ass project in github as well.
The learning part used to be the most frustrating part, but with Claude/ChatGPT it's so much smoother now. Thanks for watching, and hope you enjoy my newest video too!
1. How did you manage to get your figma design out into you vs code to then edit it in flutter? 2. Do you have a degree in coding? 3. I like how real you keep all of it I surely leanred a lot by just this one video, keep it up!
Great questions! 1. I don't use any design to code exports, I just find it very easy to create UI's in dart/flutter, so it's all manually coded 2. I do not! Which is why I'll never call myself a 'programmer' because my coding skills are average at best. 3. Thanks! I never intended this video to be 'educational' but i'm glad it did! I just dropped a new video, similar but better - i'm sure you'll enjoy that one as well :L)
Great job! Starting a project is one thing, finishing it and publishing it to the public is a whole new level of developer mindset. Congratulations on your app and good luck! I think in this world, fail-fast works and one day it will outsmart all existing products that are doing the same thing, because you only need to get it right once. Once is all you need to win in life. :)
Thanks for watching! The strategy is usually to just get it out there, and improve it on the go :) I just dropped a new video out about a prettier app, so might wanna check that one out too!
I love how cinematic you made this video look. You are also a phenomenal storyteller-definitely better than me. I also tried making this style of content. I uploaded my first video to my channel and discovered just how much work it is to create a video like this. I definitely can appreciate how well put together this video is. You must have spent weeks editing this video. It looks great!!!
Hahah thanks for the kind words! I'll check your video out :) I actually spent 3 days editing this video. In my little head, if it takes longer than 3 days, it's just not good enough content, so I try to make things as fast as possible and if I can't, just trash it haha. I just posted another video finishing a project (also took 3 days to edit), so hope you enjoy that one too!
This is a great idea...could you possibly use this same structure and make a habit tracking / general challenge app. I can see this being really cool to use for any category of goals
Thank you! This was a bit more of a 'practice-app', than a functional one. But I just posted a new video where I build something much more practical, so I hope you enjoy that one as well!
Shipping an app in 4 days is wild. I think all solopreneours have the same problem as you. It happened to me that I started a lot of projects but never got to the point of publishing them. As you said in the end: Done might not be better than perfect but is better than abandoned.
I accidentally came across your video and was immediately intrigued...I have a question about the framing language you would recommend to get started, admittedly I have the basics in HTML/CSS and beyond that UI, but I have some concept for a startup. Web/web app/ apn stores integration. Thank you 🙌
I'm one of those people who think tools/languages don't matter. The most important thing is finding a framework that you find enjoyable. I always suggest people to try to build basic tools (like a weather app) using different frameworks and see which one you find the easiest, and stick to that
Claude gang lesss goooooo...i built my app with Claude i didn't write an ounce of code i just designed the UI and let Claude to the rest and in about 30mins i had a UI ready to go and more 30 mins i had fully integrated the the app with everything i needed..am yet to launch it. but it will be launched as soon as am done...but thanks for this ama go right ahead and sub plus notifications
iykyk hahahahaha. people ask me 'how did you learn how to code' and i'm like 'i didn't?'. My next video's coming in a week. was traveling but seems like these videos get good engagement and i should make it a weekly thing.
I don't know how UA-cam recommend this video to me but honestly i love it ,, as if I found something after looking for it for so long. This really motivated me to go back to coding. Awesome videos well done. I enjoyed watching it very much. Now excuse me as I go watch all the videos on the channel.👏🏼
This is exactly why I'm making these videos - for even non programmers to enjoy the 'making-of' videos! Thank you so much for that, and i'll try my best :)
this was so much fun to watch and so inspirational! Thanks for sharing, excited to see where this app goes next + your next videos :) ps not sure what camera you're using but feels like your footage could use a very quick grade!
Thanks! This was more of a practice app since I was experimenting more with the video side. And yes! I haven't even properly color corrected some of the footages because there were just too many :P Will work on it next time!
To reach your project goal, you don't need any coding experience, just a willingness to do it. Here are the steps to follow: 1. Sketch your idea/app on paper with as much detail as possible, iterating as much as you can. Once you feel you have a fair enough design, proceed to the next step. 2. Clean up your documentation and organize it in a logbook to track your progress. 3. Spend a few weeks with ChatGPT to develop a step-by-step plan for bringing your app to life, including the stack to use, database, backend, API, etc. 4. Watch as many videos as possible on the chosen stacks. 5. The timeline for the above steps depends on how long you want to take to learn the basics. Play around and test the chosen stacks. 6. Gain an understanding of how the chosen technologies work together without writing any code. 7. Engage with ChatGPT to gather information and plan your app, including the file structure and components etc. 8. Ask ChatGPT and use Cursor to create your app with dummy screens using the file structure provided. 9. Improve and iterate on the screens until you feel satisfied with the design. 10. When you are comfortable with your progress, start looking into deployment. Feel free to continue watching UA-cam videos for help. If you stay focused, you could have a prototype in as little as one month. Good luck! ChatGPT when use incrementally, with a plan and iteratively can build almost anything for you... Good luck!
I would say learn to code.. That's what I am currently doing.. I had a SaaS idea almost 3 months ago.. And ever since, I have been learning to code.. My plan is to build the MVP by the end of this year..
It's much easier said than done isn't it! Started this yt channel so I can keep finishing projects AND THEN perfecting them. Thanks for checking in and glad you liked it!
@@lululucaschae Hey man, I just watched the new video and I honestly think it's PERFECT. I loved everything about it, the editing, the storytelling and even the music. Your new app looks soooo gooood and I think it's useful. Keep it up, fellow solopenur!
Awesome video ! One idea if you decide to add new features : being able to "stack" all the photos taken during the challenge, the older ones being kind of transparent, to see the progress in just one picture :D
There are so many cool UI things you can do with a bunch of images right!? Definitely will take it into account :) thanks! (Rumors say you might expect a Timelapse feature wink wink)
@@raroquenot much time filming at all - they’re all just snippets of my day. Editing took ~2 full days which is A LOT. But that’s because I didn’t have any script and had to puzzle different footages together to make it work. I’ve started off with a script for the next video so hopefully I can cut down the editing time by more than half!
Downloaded the app, may not use it. Love your idea of just building stuff, I love that, that's exactly my thoughts. I think setting these weekly challenges seems to be the way to go.
정말 인상깊게 봤습니다. 저도 1인 개발을 하는 입장으로서 지금 이 영상이 만들어지기까지 얼마나 많은 노력을 하셨고 기술을 배우셨는지 대단할 따름이네요. 영상편집, 개발 전부 인상적이지만 피그마로 ui디자인을 뚝딱 하시는 게 가장 인상깊었습니다. 피그마는 혼자 배우신 건가요??
안녕하세요! 한국 뷰어가 1%도 안돼서 한글 댓글을 보면 기분이 좋네요 :) 저는 직업은 PM으로 일했었지만, 외주로는 디자인을 많이 맡아봐서 일하면서 피그마를 능숙히 배운 것 같아요 :) 뭐든지 하면서 배우는 성격이라서요 ㅎㅎ 한국에서 찍은 영상인데 한국분들 보시는 분이 없어서 조금 슬픈데 ㅠ 많이 소개시켜주시면 감사하겠습니다! 오늘 영상 하나 또 올라왔어요 :)
Amazing storytelling!🔥🔥 I would love to see more content like this. Also, could you share the research and wireframe part of this app? It would be so helpful to gain more insights.
Thanks! yeah, it's 100% dart/flutter! I don't know if I understood your question, but I didn't use any plugins! It's just ios simulator on the right side of my screen haha :) Feel free to ask more if his didn't answer your question! I also just posted another video - hope you like this one as well!
That would be lovely.. but my wallet won’t be able to handle it haha - and I’d have to do much better than this to make it a paid app :)) but who knows maybe some day I’ll improve on it!!
I dont think people recognise the amount of skill and effort to
#1 build this app, but
#2 put this video together,
#3 do them both in the quality they have been done
You are going places!!!!!
Of all people, it means so much coming from the mastermind! Wouldn't have happened without you. Thank you so much!
exactly this! it's really hard to juggle both
inshallah
Same thoughts. incredible and crazy
And do a 80 deg split aswell.
"Starting projects is my superpower.finishing them is my kryptonite" : I love that sentence (and I can relate ˆˆ)
And when we defeat it we’ll be invincible :)
Me tooo
Superb description of my problem too. Glad to have brother in arms on the other side of the globe.
same here brother
Contrary to you.😅
everyone's building a fitness app nowadays, imma make an app management app to manage all the fitness apps
😂😂
I also have the problem with having great enthusiasm in the beginning but getting bored and lazy quickly, but I have some tips to help with that:
1. Break the project into smaller milestones
2. Set realistic goals
3. Build a routine
4. Hold accountability
5. Reflect and adapt
And also if you hold yourself accountable for it and tell others about it, you start to feel a need to get the project you were talking about finished, which has helped me a lot.
Great advice! Thanks a lot for sharing
I loved two major things
1. You took a real world problem and tried to solve it
2. The simplicity yet effectiveness of this app could be used into a complex application that provides variety of features including stretching
I can't NOT try to solve the problem I'm personally facing - it's the whole reason why I started making apps!
Thanks for enjoying it, I just posted another video, solving another problem I have. hope you like that one too!
youtube recommended me a breath of fresh air. nice
and you got me breath of joyful comment. thanks
I love these type of content where one shares the build process
First of many :) Thanks for watching!
As a developer, I really appreciate your way of working. Keep it up, and good luck with the app!
Really. I am UI/UX designer and I can tell you it is not easy to come up with Ideas and be the one to actualize it.
Thanks for the tour around the city!
Key lesson I learned as a student founder, and from joining VC firms:
- as soon as you have the vision, in this case the figma
- start selling your idea to users before development
- some may love it, some maybe meh, some might hate it
- throughout the process u either scope down your audience, your features, your priorities and making yourself lean, fast and most importantly accurately relevant!
Keep up the work man!😊 supporting from Malaysia

Great to see people building stuff, plus storytelling and the whole vibe of the video is amazing.
Nice video, impressive to see a finished product in such a short timeframe!
Thanks! Will post a fuller-scale project with actual metrics in future videos :)
wow
first time on this channel and the video quality, the storytelling, the visuals just perfect.
love how to whole is relatable as well
This video is so soothing to watch!

Claude gang lesss goooooo...i built my app with Claude i didn't write an ounce of code i just designed the UI and let Claude to the rest and in about 30mins i had a UI ready to go and more 30 mins i had fully integrated the the app with everything i needed..am yet to launch it. but it will be launched as soon as am done...but thanks for this ama go right ahead and sub plus notifications
iykyk hahahahaha. people ask me 'how did you learn how to code' and i'm like 'i didn't?'.
My next video's coming in a week. was traveling but seems like these videos get good engagement and i should make it a weekly thing.
"That means I'm alone and talk to my plants". Love the humor!
Thanks for watching! Just dropped another video with MORE humor! :)
@@lululucaschae Already consumed, good stuff!
I don't know how UA-cam recommend this video to me but honestly i love it ,, as if I found something after looking for it for so long. This really motivated me to go back to coding. Awesome videos well done. I enjoyed watching it very much. Now excuse me as I go watch all the videos on the channel.👏🏼
Loved the vibe of the video......thanks for sharing!
I'm a developer too. I switched from Gemini to Claude for coding work, and I'm happy I made that decision.
It truly feels like a human assistant doesn't it.
loved the process and the way of execution.
Thank you!
I am not a programmer nor do I use an iPhone but I really enjoyed this video! Kept me hooked from the start! Can't wait to see what you make next :)
This is exactly why I'm making these videos - for even non programmers to enjoy the 'making-of' videos! Thank you so much for that, and i'll try my best :)
woww this is really impressive! I'm glad that this video appeared on my feed to give me motivation to start on a passion project!💯
Thanks for watching, and I'm glad it did! I just posted another video, hope this one motivates you as well!
Great to watch! Really like the protractor design. Subbed!
Thank you so much! Glad you like it
As a App-Dev myself, this Video makes me happy :)
Great video. I'm polishing my app related skills now, then I'll start developing my own app. Will try to finish at least something. :D
this was so much fun to watch and so inspirational! Thanks for sharing, excited to see where this app goes next + your next videos :)
ps not sure what camera you're using but feels like your footage could use a very quick grade!
Thanks! This was more of a practice app since I was experimenting more with the video side.
And yes! I haven't even properly color corrected some of the footages because there were just too many :P Will work on it next time!
Wow that's amazing to build an app from start(ui design and research) to finish by yourself in just 4 days!
your content is breath of fresh air
That means so much :-) will be providing all kinds of fresh air every week!
Good motivation!! Keep it up!!!
Thank you so much for watching! I just dropped another video - hope you like that one too :)
I have an app idea and no experience of coding. So you are much closer reaching your project goals!
To reach your project goal, you don't need any coding experience, just a willingness to do it. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Sketch your idea/app on paper with as much detail as possible, iterating as much as you can. Once you feel you have a fair enough design, proceed to the next step.
2. Clean up your documentation and organize it in a logbook to track your progress.
3. Spend a few weeks with ChatGPT to develop a step-by-step plan for bringing your app to life, including the stack to use, database, backend, API, etc.
4. Watch as many videos as possible on the chosen stacks.
5. The timeline for the above steps depends on how long you want to take to learn the basics. Play around and test the chosen stacks.
6. Gain an understanding of how the chosen technologies work together without writing any code.
7. Engage with ChatGPT to gather information and plan your app, including the file structure and components etc.
8. Ask ChatGPT and use Cursor to create your app with dummy screens using the file structure provided.
9. Improve and iterate on the screens until you feel satisfied with the design.
10. When you are comfortable with your progress, start looking into deployment.
Feel free to continue watching UA-cam videos for help. If you stay focused, you could have a prototype in as little as one month. Good luck!
ChatGPT when use incrementally, with a plan and iteratively can build almost anything for you...
Good luck!
@@gmgm_can you recommend a video or channel
I would say learn to code..
That's what I am currently doing..
I had a SaaS idea almost 3 months ago..
And ever since, I have been learning to code..
My plan is to build the MVP by the end of this year..
Same
This is not a cake walk. But passion towards building products is making you to do great things. Kudos and Keep going ...
Great content Lucas! Loved the way you work and vlog!
This is so cool ✨
Thanks for enjoying it! I have an even cooler video out now :)
i believe developer around the world could relate to this video. Nice one, bro! Keep it up! +1 fans
This was a relaxing watch. Good stuff !
Haha, I thought the world could need some more relaxing tech videos. Thanks for watching! I posted another one just now, hope you like that one too :)
Now this is wonderful content ..please continue sharing. I love your video and to see someone doing startup in seoul ❤
Will share many more! Thanks for following the journey :0
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing ur thought process. Keep going!
Thanks! I hope you enjoyed it. I just posted another video, hope you like this one too!
way to go, also working on mine and got inspired
That's so awesome to hear! Just dropped a brand new video so might wanna check that one out. too :)
Key! Love your ideas! btw what nuphy switches do you have?
This question made me happy. They're cowberry keys :)
wow this video gave me so much motivation to do my own. i'm a flutter developer and thank you for this video.
If you subscribe you'll get even more motivation HAHA
nicee brooo. love the tagline, done is better that perfect/abandoned project
It's much easier said than done isn't it! Started this yt channel so I can keep finishing projects AND THEN perfecting them. Thanks for checking in and glad you liked it!
Loved this video man. Glad it showed up on my home page.
I'm glad I could share my journey! I just posted another video sharing my work, hope you enjoy that one as well :)
@@lululucaschae Hey man, I just watched the new video and I honestly think it's PERFECT. I loved everything about it, the editing, the storytelling and even the music. Your new app looks soooo gooood and I think it's useful. Keep it up, fellow solopenur!
Awesome video !
One idea if you decide to add new features : being able to "stack" all the photos taken during the challenge, the older ones being kind of transparent, to see the progress in just one picture :D
There are so many cool UI things you can do with a bunch of images right!? Definitely will take it into account :) thanks! (Rumors say you might expect a Timelapse feature wink wink)
inspiring video indeed 🚀🚀
Thanks for watching! Just dropped a brand new video so be sure to check that one out as well!
This was fun to watch! Subbed and excited to follow along your journey :)
Oh wow, thank you so much! Will not dissappoint :)
@@lululucaschae 🙌 btw how long did this take you to film and edit?
@@raroquenot much time filming at all - they’re all just snippets of my day. Editing took ~2 full days which is A LOT. But that’s because I didn’t have any script and had to puzzle different footages together to make it work. I’ve started off with a script for the next video so hopefully I can cut down the editing time by more than half!
@@lululucaschaesooooo much faster than I thought, it would legit take me a week to edit this much content 😳
Haha, I think Davinci is definitely a game changer. I would've never been able to on Premierd
Love this video, keep up posting
Enjoying This From The Caribbean.
Thank you! One of my favorite places on earth :)
Downloaded the app, may not use it. Love your idea of just building stuff, I love that, that's exactly my thoughts. I think setting these weekly challenges seems to be the way to go.
Haha yeah, the app I made in this particular video was almost just for fun! Just dropped a brand new video so might wanna check that one out. too :)
@ Ouuuu will check it out
정말 인상깊게 봤습니다. 저도 1인 개발을 하는 입장으로서 지금 이 영상이 만들어지기까지 얼마나 많은 노력을 하셨고 기술을 배우셨는지 대단할 따름이네요.
영상편집, 개발 전부 인상적이지만 피그마로 ui디자인을 뚝딱 하시는 게 가장 인상깊었습니다.
피그마는 혼자 배우신 건가요??
안녕하세요! 한국 뷰어가 1%도 안돼서 한글 댓글을 보면 기분이 좋네요 :)
저는 직업은 PM으로 일했었지만, 외주로는 디자인을 많이 맡아봐서 일하면서 피그마를 능숙히 배운 것 같아요 :) 뭐든지 하면서 배우는 성격이라서요 ㅎㅎ
한국에서 찍은 영상인데 한국분들 보시는 분이 없어서 조금 슬픈데 ㅠ 많이 소개시켜주시면 감사하겠습니다! 오늘 영상 하나 또 올라왔어요 :)
Motivation stonks to finish my projects. The narrative was very impressive 🍟
I'm glad you liked it! I'll keep posting so that you feel motivated too :)
How is this not called Seoulopreneur is beyond me :)
Being a slave of SEO is what it is :(((
Amazing storytelling!🔥🔥 I would love to see more content like this. Also, could you share the research and wireframe part of this app? It would be so helpful to gain more insights.
I didn't document it well enough for this video, but I'll take notes for my upcoming one!
@@lululucaschae okay, thanks👍👍
Really nice vid! for this app did you only use dart? And with what plugin did you get the iphone to appear on the right side?
Thanks! yeah, it's 100% dart/flutter! I don't know if I understood your question, but I didn't use any plugins! It's just ios simulator on the right side of my screen haha :) Feel free to ask more if his didn't answer your question!
I also just posted another video - hope you like this one as well!
Great job 👏 enjoyed watching the journey. Definitely inspired me to complete my unfinished project and not waiting for perfection!
a good idea would be to implement gpt-4o model to recognize the angle of the split automatically
That would be lovely.. but my wallet won’t be able to handle it haha - and I’d have to do much better than this to make it a paid app :)) but who knows maybe some day I’ll improve on it!!
More videos like this pls. Inspires me to code(and finish it lol) but not pressuring at all.
Any pressure's good pressure haha! I did just post another video - hope you enjoy this one as well :)
