My daughter asked for a painting app without ads, paywalls or pop-ups.

So we built one together. Tiny Squares is out today on iPad 🟦

Paint pictures one tiny square at a time: free painting, colour by number, and bead patterns that tell you how many beads of each colour to buy.

No ads. No tracking. One purchase for the whole family.

Expo's CEO just built a React Native alternative.

Not in React. In Rust.

Shopify went back to native. Coinbase is hiring to rewrite its app in Swift and Kotlin. Discord is rebuilding in Rust.

I tried Exact the day after it dropped and built one app for web, macOS and iOS with Claude Code 👇
