      Yo! Interested in having a random, fairly new, less than a year old developer come in and build utilizing ai to make it work? I'd love to come join, and I'm confident I can make it happen. Hit me up, if interested.

    My takeaway is that true senior developers aren’t afraid to say I don’t know and have a great attitude struggling to figure out problems. Loved this episode!

    @furkandogan4623 2 місяці тому +90

    5:20 "I'm not one of those developers that work fast" HE SAID and built a functional app (I'd consider them 2 apps), created a character using CSS, built 3d designs on Blender, and did it all within 4 hours. The first two apps were like "All right, I maybe could do it" but Alex brought it up a notch.
    Jason's app was unlucky in this episode. It was a great idea and a great execution, I would love to spend hours on it, but unfortunately for Jason, Alex overshadowed everyone.

    Would love to see an alt cut (maybe just for subscribers) that shows more of the upfront talk given by the sponsor to the devs before the challenge begins, in this case more from NIck. I imagine there has to be more of that pre-game info and Q&A between Nick and all the participants before planning start time that is just cut for time.
    Looking forward to the Web Dev Challenge Hackathon kick-off call on Friday.

    Alex, as a fellow over-engineer I understand. I’ve noticed we either over-engineer in 3 directions by either exceeding the app functionality goal with useless features while poorly focusing on the integral parts, rebuild a way to build an app(me🤦🏾‍♂️), or over invest in to one (typically none core) feature. The idea of switching pages based on prior search results is interesting af, cheers mate🥂
