IT projects by day. Building my own things at night. Into tech, healthy habits, family time, and seeing more of the world. Sharing what I learn along the way.

I’m a 51 years old dad with a 9 to 5 working in IT.
On the side, I make app and digital assets so I could retire early and build a passive income for retirement.
I also do this to keep my brain active, creative and healthy.
AI allows me to accelerate this. Feels like a second chance.
I’m not not going to miss this opportunity.

Had an old iPad collecting dust.
Figured it would make a great digital photo frame, so I built an app for it.
Now it displays family memories instead of sitting in a drawer.
That’s how FramePad was born.
Your favorite photos deserve better than sitting forgotten in your camera roll.
Turn your iPhone or iPad into a digital photo frame with FramePad.
Choose your photos, start a slideshow, and enjoy your memories.
Simple, customizable, and easy to use.

NO, you can’t copy someone’s GIF, you actually post a link to their GIF.
If they delete it, yours gets deleted too.
Stop spreading false information.

NO, YOU CAN NOT take a screenshot of a tweet from the share button.
Nobody was able to prove that.
Everyone keeps repeating the same dumb post

He’s an international builder… shipping while on a bike mostly.
His agents are probably cooking while he’s riding.
Stay safe Patrick!
Let's connect 👋
G'day, I'm Patrick, a #BikerNomad travelling Europe and beyond. I build and ship from anywhere I am, be that France, Italy or even Serbia, where I am now. I've been in business and tech for over 30 years.
Where I can offer ideas from that experience I do, but I often learn the most from you. That is the power of community.
I'm building a paying-it-forward vibrant community here, just like the photo, not a broadcast account.
The entire idea behind this community is discovery. Every week I highlight a builder, plus there is also the Top 40 list, updated every monday with accounts that engaged the most It is a fantastic way to discover new people building cool things. (link in first comment)
I am also working on a new way of promoting cools tools and people from this growing community, so keep an eye out for that.
This account very much believes a rising tide lifts all ships. We are all small accounts in a very large pond. Sharing and helping each other is the best way forward.
I'd like to meet more people building, designing or launching things here. Side projects count. So does starting again.
If you're a:
→ Founder
→ Indie hacker
→ Developer
→ Vibe coder
→ Designer
→ Solo builder
…say hello.
What are you making? I'd like to have a look.

Coming from a manufacturing background, I often think of building with AI like this:
You can make a part by hand, or invest in a machine and a mold to produce it faster, cheaper, and at scale.
AI is that machine for software.
In manufacturing, when production costs drop, customers eventually expect lower prices.
I think we need to bring that same thinking to AI-built products.
If AI makes something 10x cheaper to build, shouldn't the customer benefit too?

This app got its first in-app purchase today. 🎉
It's just one sale, but it's nice knowing someone found it useful enough to support me.
The core functionality is free, so this one means a lot.
You sit down to work. Check your phone. Open a few tabs. Suddenly, 30 minutes are gone.
Sound familiar?
Sand Focus helps you stay on task with simple focus and break timers.
Less distraction. More progress.
Stay focused. Get more done.
