Q3. Are you working on any enhancements or new features?

"We are constantly looking to improve the developer documentation, open source repositories and starters as well as video resources we share with everyone publicly. Internally, we strive to always improve from project to project."

4. What’s the hardest part about building a new app or protocol?

"When developing something new one doesn't know what will go wrong or where the critical path is. That's found out while walking the walk. As such planning timelines and capacities to have a sense of being on track is hard. Knowing what works is also hardly possible, since it's new. How do you know if something new works? Maybe you can pull from similar sources as you're combining them and get a better sense that way or have people on the team, that did similar things before. That for sure helps. Otherwise it's walking the walk and finding out. Adjust along the way and stay in the game."

Q5. What’s been the biggest surprise on your journey so far?

"The biggest surprise to me was how fast one can get into rooms they never thought they'd be in by just helping people and being genuine."

programming

Q6. What past jobs/life experiences led you to this moment?

"I've been running service businesses since 2019 which got me used to the kind of business we're in. Though the skills to execute have been built since I am 14 years old when my dad got me started /programming.

"He also got me focused on doing projects. Meaning I did something, it worked and I improved it. That iterating and delivering while learning and figuring it out is just how service businesses work."

Base

Farcaster

Q7. What attracted you to building on /base?

"Base was the first chain to embrace /farcaster genuinely. Which means that if you're building in the Farcaster ecosystem as we are, that's where your users and support comes from."

Q8. Where do you see your app in 5 years if it succeeds and fulfills your wildest vision?

"In 5 years we'll have comprehensive documentation for anyone to go Zero to Hero on /Farcaster with ample starter codebases to look at including advanced production scale ones. Any intermediary to advanced skill level should be served in the docs. On the business side that allows us to showcase why we are the best and keep working with the best to deliver delightful user experiences."

Q9. Are there any other projects on /Base that you’re excited about?

"I am excited about sovereign financial rails and privacy. @fluidkey provides private receiving of money, while @morpho provides self sovereign yield. Add splits as role based team payments account and you're starting to see where the financial rails of the future line up."

Founders

Q10. What advice would you give to fresh, first-time /founders?

"Focus on getting your foot in the door and delivering every chance you get. Being genuine with others and yourself. Know why you're on that journey and remind yourself of that. The doubts are part of it, friends and family as well as just giving them time while keeping up the execution and taking deliberate breaks to recover will make them pass."
