just finished designing all auth-related pages for Velovra. I'm thinking that when I release the project, I might publish the entire design system as open source as well. Let’s see how it goes. I’m still working on creating the best design system for the best product.

I designed a very minimal email template in Sketch for Velovra, just black and white with some alignment adjustments. I need to check that the template displays beautifully in Outlook, Gmail, and Proton.

Without using jQuery-like libs, you can create reusable components with direct DOM manipulation by following a React-like structure. To handle state changes, you can return APIs from the component functions.

And you can write a hyperscript function to reduce the repetitive code you’re writing.

Let’s start again with a new organization, a new project, and the same name.

😢 I've got a big problem. Now I'm wondering whether I should continue the project or not. I have no idea what to do. I’d like to know your opinion about this

It’s day 33 of building in public. The entire day went into styling the initial dashboard. I hate CSS now :/

It’s day 32 of building in public the first AI-native blogging platform. The day went well 🔥 I wrote nearly every component for the frontend, only a few more to go. I also did a bit of refactoring for the main dashboard design.

(2) It's incredibly fast! The same kinds of pages I built on Next.js are extremely slow compared to direct DOM manipulation, even though the components and features are exactly the same.

Because of this test, the entire authentication part is now complete.

(1) It's the 31st day of building in public on the first-ever AI-native blogging platform.

Today I decided to implement the complete frontend for auth. The reason was that I wanted to test performance after switching to vanilla JS DOM manipulation.

It’s day 30 of building the first AI-native blogging platform in public! 🚀

I’ve almost completely rewritten the frontend, (originally built in React) using vanilla JS with direct DOM manipulation. Now I can finally see what’s happening behind the scenes :D 😄✨

(1) 😭 I made the hardest decision since starting this project.

It’s Day 29 of building in public, the first AI-native blogging platform.

I originally started with Vite+React using Bun. One very complex feature was built in React, and I used ReactScan to check for rendering issues.

It’s day 28 of building in public the first AI-native blogging platform. The codebase has now reached 30k lines and is becoming complex. I’m still focused on frontend, logic-first development.

Andd Let’s move on to the next day.

(1) Today marks Day 27 of building in public.

The entire day was spent developing frontend components. Since we’re not using any libraries, it takes a bit more time.

It's day 26 of building in public, a blogging platform. Today, I moved away from dev and focused on the UI/UX side of the application. There are still a few UI pages left to design, and I’ll get to those later. That’s it for today!

How are you guys doing?

The first image shows just a menu component, while the second image uses that same menu component. That’s the power of design systems, they might not look impressive on their own, but when combined with other elements, everything aligns perfectly.

It’s day 22 of building in public, a blogging platform. I’m still working on the APIs in a Go microservice.

✅ Article
✅ Tags
✅ Sections
✅ Blog
✅ Credits
✅ Email List
✅ Members
✅ Projects
✅ Subscription

I think it’ll take a few more days to complete all the APIs. Let's see..

So, it's day 22 of building a blogging platform in public. Yesterday, I completed the SQL scripts, and today I started working on the backend APIs. That's it for today, bye :D

It’s day 21 of building in public a blogging platform. I think this is the shortest post I’ve shared so far. I spent the entire day creating functions in PSQL. 🙃

It’s Day 20 of building in public, a blogging platform for your product!

Happy to share that today I worked on implementing the projects and users can now create projects from their accounts.

I started the day by creating a PUML diagram. That’s it for today 🚀

On Day 19 of building the blogging platform, I dedicated the entire day to UI design and developing PostgreSQL scripts, bringing both form and function closer to completion 🔥

It’s day 17 of building in public a blogging platform. I spent the entire day designing the new logo and creating basic components for the application interface. That’s it for today.

let’s move on to the next day. 😁

Done! I’ve finalized both the logo and the wordmark for the application.
