It's easy for me to think about a world without electricity. But I can't imagine a world without my father. I am a second generation engineer because I want to be my dad. The last few years I spent working on mobile smart cameras and photo editors. These apps had wide ranging variations in success. Through these and other prototypes and releases; I've hardened a set of principals for software development that I wish to share. There isn't a corner of development that I don't own, I design brands, mockups, and copy. I've made vanilla iPhone apps for the past 6 years, but today I'll use Flutter. It took me the last week but I learned React and Gatsby, then wrote a few static websites. I am looking forward to using React Native for my next mobile app, and finding a web project to leverage Nextjs.
