a lot of people on farcaster are building for themselves first it may not be the best founder strategy, but i think it's the best strategy to build an awesome app that other people will love to use, too this is how @atlas has been built for the last ~year, and it's still not launched yet lol ?8^)

good q, long story.... part of it is not really knowing what to build, and another part is just iterating on ideas and not getting much traction a ~year ago @shoni.eth and i built @atlas as a cast+reply summary bot, and i thought it was really great but it didn't get many users then @0xconca.eth and i started building it as an app on telegram, which i also think is great, and we still use it today! ~7 months ago, i started taking coding lessons from @0xconca.eth so i could be more involved in developing the project, and am just now getting to the point where i can actually contribute by styling components so it's been a fun journey, and fortunately there's been no time pressure, just a fun async passion project to learn about farcaster + coding + ai now it's turning into something really cool, imo, and it should be ready to launch v soon and i can proudly say that i wrote ~90% of the frontend code myself when i didn't know how to write a single line of code ~7 months ago ?8^)
