Today I worked on the #uidesign for my #designyourlife app cocoona.

Helpful tool:
@MobbinDesign is a nice reference tool if you are looking for certain design patterns. Unfortunately, they don't offer monthly payments which I dislike a bit.

πŸ’‘What I learned today

The best thing you can do as an Indiehacker when you feel lost?
πŸ‘‰ Stop working on the problem. Do something fun. Sleep a night over it.
πŸ‘‰ Then, come back, grab a pencil and a paper and write about it.

Here's what you can expect from me #buildinpublic:

πŸ‘‰ I will document the whole journey from zero to MVP launch and beyond
πŸ‘‰ I will share all my learnings with you, together with the raw numbers and what strategies I have applied
πŸ‘‰ I will give you a free beta access to cocoona
Here's some info about the first project I will #buildinpublic:

It's an idea I have in my mind since around 2016.

The key problem I wanted to solve was:
"How can I better understand where my time is going?"

So I came up with some cool visual solutions to tackle this problem.
And this is exactly what I want to capture in my first #buildinpublic product:

cocoona is a holistic life design & management app that helps you to understand your past, organize and focus on your present and shape your future.

More info coming soon. πŸ™‚
🧡 Why I will join the #buildinpublic movement in 2022, what I will build and what you can expect from me:
#buildinpublic is a real trend right now.

These are the main reasons why I want to join the movement:

πŸ‘‰ Building an audience
πŸ‘‰ Building trust
πŸ‘‰ Creating accountability
πŸ‘‰ Connecting with like-minded people
I failed in the past to #buildinpublic, mainly for the following reasons:
πŸ‘‰ Lack of time
πŸ‘‰ Perfectionism

To tackle these:
πŸ‘‰ I cancelled my current projects for the whole year
πŸ‘‰ I will focus on (sharing) progress instead of perfectionism (thanks #ship30for30 for that advice!)
