Can you make a video about how to start a project, for example: project skeleton, file structure, system and database design... I always worry about my project not good enough. Wishing you a positive day
Nice place. All the best Aivars for your new upgrade. We were habitual to see in your old setup in that submarine like room, as a viewer even we need some time to adjust with your new background 😄
Sounds like a super busy couple of months ahead! I’d love to try the 12 apps in 12 months sometime, but I totally agree you could get burnt out constantly starting new things. I think for me too like one app every two months is more realistic
I did that to myself. It will be busy June :D App per month sounds too much, more realistic could be 3-4 months cycle: - Build new app or big feature - Release, fixes, ASO - Marketing - 4th months for healing from burnout and getting new ideas :)
Aivars, don’t underestimate the overhead of moving house… we moved house beginning of this year. Still not completely setup 5 months later. What do you want to achieve with your apps? Just for experience? You want to expand your knowledge in different industries?
I'm planning to cut down on things I own, giving away and selling stuff. I'm very pragmatic about my apps. They should be fun to make and generate money ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Is it worth it to learn ios development in 2024? What would you recommend to start with: uikit or swiftui? What about hybrid development/KMP? Won't they make ios native development obsolete?
I know. I moved from Riga to a smaller city 10+ years ago when it wasn't a mainstream thing yet. I'm a trend starter, not a follower 😂 Small cities are comfortable for going out on a weekend to visit local burger joints or beer bravery. If it is the only place where to go out all year long and it is closed in the off-season, that's not so fun anymore. Will see what I think in a year or a few, but I spent most of my life in Riga and missed it.
Window facing table - is one the worst possible scenarios. Your eyes should have some rest time. + brightness on all your devices should be practically maxed out.
Привет, спасибо за видео, в какие игры играете? Очень интересно. Нравятся ваши видео вне программирования, очень интересно наблюдать за человеком вне работы. Не останавливайся! Не могу адекватно писать на английском, пишу на русском.
Hi. No problem, I can read and speak Russian, but can't write. Currently I'm Playing Last of Us on PC and Death Stranding on Mac, but can't say I'm playing games often.
Aiwars do you think it is very difficult to find projects on upwork for a beginner? and as a full time income upwrok should not be considered? in a video from 5 years ago about freelancing you said that upwork is the last thing you should rely on when looking for freelance work, is that true? I'm currently learning ios development, I'm only interested in freelance format of work in the future, I'm worried whether I'll be able to have stable projects or at least partially stable.
Start making connections with other iOS devs and freelancers! Hot leads (from people you know or refer you), are always better than Upwork, or any other freelance platform! I do iOS dev as a freelancer, I’d love to chat with what you’re learning and your goals!
I started on Upwork and that worked out well for me, but most of the projects are not great there. @MikaelaCaron has great advice, I would try to be around other freelancers. I got one good project from another iOS dev I met at a local meetup.
