How I Approach Building Projects
How I Approach Building Projects
After completing 50+ projects, I’ve developed a workflow that works for me. Here’s how I take an idea from concept to deployment.
Phase 1: Planning
Before writing any code, I always ask:
- What problem are we solving?
- Who is the target user?
- What are the must-have features?
Phase 2: Design
I keep designs simple but effective:
- Clean UI/UX
- Mobile-first approach
- Consistent color schemes
Phase 3: Development
My typical development flow:
# 1. Initialize the projectnpm create vite@latest my-projectcd my-project
# 2. Install dependenciesnpm install
# 3. Start coding!npm run devBest Practices I Follow
- Write clean, readable code
- Use version control (Git)
- Test as you build
- Document everything
Phase 4: Deployment
My favorite platforms:
- Vercel - For frontend & Next.js
- Railway - For backends
- Firebase - For real-time apps
Tips for Fellow Developers
Start small, iterate fast, and don’t be afraid to break things!
Every project teaches you something new. Keep building!
