I build with Conscious Minimalism.
Conscious Minimalism means every decision, every feature, every commitment is a choice. Nothing ships by default. The shape grows with the customer, not the roadmap.
I obsess over the interface, not the internals. The boundary is what you live with, and what you refactor and scale.
I optimise for speed to de-validation. The faster I kill a bad idea, the less sunk cost owns me.
I fix one narrow painpoint, not a broad category or a platform play. One thing, done properly.
I aim to be the best at that one feature, not one of the good ones in the list.
I chase niche over crowded. Niche means the idea is more unique, with a better outcome than the legacy approach.
Crowded is a signal of competition. Without a 10x better solution, you probably will not make it.
I bet on AI-native platforms and APIs. Anything that does not use AI as a primitive is already legacy.
