I'm Noah — a software engineer who builds and ships apps on nights and weekends. These guides are what I wish existed while I was doing it: the real architecture, the pinned versions, and the traps that cost me whole evenings.
Every guide, from first commit to the App Store, the web and automated social posting.
Six guides, 146 pages, all of it production-tested against a real app with real users.
Each guide stands alone. Every dependency is pinned and every snippet came out of a real codebase.
React Native, Django, Railway, Cloudflare R2, Google & Apple Sign-In, RevenueCat, Sentry, Resend.
Neon Postgres, a Fly.io cold standby, and a Cloudflare Worker that fails over and back automatically.
App Store submission, Google Play, domains, privacy policy, trademark, ASO, GDPR and a launch checklist.
Prompt templates, debugging frameworks and code review checklists, written for this exact stack.
Next.js on a subdomain, the same Django backend, httpOnly cookie auth, Vercel, PWA and deep links.
Automated social posting to Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts and Threads — one render, one cron job.
Occasional email when I publish something new. No drip sequence, no upsells.
Thanks — you're on the list.
Everything in the guides is running in production in one of these.
