A small project challenge

"Pick one real person and build something for them.
It doesn't have to be big. It has to matter to them."

Most tech projects try to get millions of users. This one is different: build a simple tool for one real person in your life — your roommate, your grandpa, your friend who is learning a language, or your mom.

The 3 Golden Rules

1. Audience of One

If it solves a problem for one person you care about, it is 100% worth building.

2. Keep It Small

You can build it in an afternoon. A simple list or button is better than a big complex app.

3. Give It Like a Gift

Send the link in a text message. Seeing their smile is the best part of coding.
