The small apps and games where I learned how to ship before I knew what shipping meant.

The problem

I needed to learn by building, and small self-contained projects were the best teachers.

The approach

  • Built one project after another, each one teaching a specific concept: physics, APIs, UI, state.
  • Published what worked, abandoned what didn't, and kept the codebase honest about its age.

Impact

Taught me how to finish and publish something small before trying something big

What I learned

  • The best way to learn a new stack is to ship a tiny, complete thing with it.
