This code is easy. 3 buttons, in this order: 1. "No Role" 2. "Cancel" 3. "Destructive" Wrong! SwiftUI button roles affect more than you might think (not only order). Also: check out why macOS is politically correct compared to SwiftUI🕵️ whattheswift.com/swiftui-button…

Finally done with new card animation. It was quite a learning curve to implement it in Android Compose, but it was worth it 😄

Working on another feature requested by a user. It's quite a satisfaction to add smooth animations to an app 🤭

@xSash_ Which part?

@the_greg_potter Not true

Popular opinion: buttons without style look boring So here's how to style them in SwiftUI And unexpected behaviors on iOS/macOS Taylor Swift also participated in writing this article (an expert in personal style, unlike me) whattheswift.com/swiftui-button…

Drawing by hand ideas for a logo. Not what I expected from building apps😂 In school I hated drawing (bc i was pretty bad, still am bad lol) But now I enjoy it (coming up with ideas) 😅 Life's irony🤡

Skill that indie-hackers need What others think: - coding - marketing What builders actually need: - coding - marketing - UI/UX design (photoshop, Figma) - QA (testing) - legal research (regulations, app store rules) - ASO/SEO - prompting (latest addition) Extra: lots of soft-skills (time management, prioritization, networking, finding motivation, staying consistent, ...) I'm currently learning vector graphics (for logo design, cause AI is pretty shitty at that). Which skill are you learning lately?

Most dev blogs are pretty plain. So I made one that's funnier, playful (with memes and such). It makes learning more entertaining (especially for Gen Z 😆) Worst case: it's cringe (but that's also part of its goal) whattheswift.com/welcome-to-wts/ First post (tomorrow) sneak-peek: "Learn how to open the door of your Tesla car.

Control music with gestures 🤟 Excited to work on something new 😄 But Gemini and Claude struggled with the Camera API, so I had to step in 😆

@adefemi_a30197 Seems pretty cool that it's automated. Especially for quick fixes

@the_greg_potter Google mostly automates reviews now. Quick fixes often sail through unless flagged. Let’s connect.

1. User writes about a bug 2. Fix it in 5 minutes 3. Submit to Play Store 4. Bam! 20 minutes later it's live (thanks to Play Store's fast review process) Do they even review the apps or how does it get approved so fast? 😅

New release live! 😄 3 minutes to get it reviewed and released on Google Play😆 Update is based on a user's request from Reddit

Last commit is done for the new release. Now comes the fun part 😵‍💫 - update version number - create store build - submit it to Google Play - update app description - wait for approval for all changes - publish changes Did I leave something out? 😅

@AnkitAgarwalHQ I'm a perfectionist, so the code structure😅 But I should really start to deliver faster, rather than always perfecting the code

As a software engineer, what's your priority when starting a new project? - perfect code structure - fast feature delivery What guides your approach?

@jayjanyani The last point seems fair. So there's hope for human written content after all😄

I think that still we need to figure out because for most of the cases google provides with AI generated content at first. Regarding blogs, as AI generated blogs doesn't provide any human thought or different information, it is kind of useless. Even google algo understands that and doesn't rank them

Traditional SEO is dying a slow death.💀 Google's AI Overviews now show up in 60%+ of searches. Organic click-through rates dropped 61%. The top-ranked result went from 28% CTR to 19%. Meanwhile, Programmatic SEO (PSEO) is quietly winning. Here's why: PSEO lets you generate 1,000s of pages targeting long-tail, high-intent keywords — automatically. One template. One database. Thousands of ranking pages. Traditional SEO? One blog post takes days. Scaling to 1,000 pages takes years and a massive team. Where PSEO crushes traditional SEO: → E-commerce (product pages at scale) → Local businesses ("plumber in [city]" x 500 cities) → SaaS comparison pages ("Tool A vs Tool B") → Travel/listings (Tripadvisor didn't write a page for every city manually) → Directories and marketplaces The math is simple: PSEO targets bottom-of-funnel keywords where people are ready to buy. Traditional SEO fights for broad, competitive head terms where AI Overviews are eating your clicks anyway. Google's current strategy in 2026: 1/ AI Overviews answer broad queries directly — killing click-throughs 2/ E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authority, Trust) is now a ranking filter, not a guideline 3/ Domain Authority barely matters anymore (correlation dropped to 0.07) 4/ Individual page quality > domain-wide metrics 5/ They're penalizing low-effort AI content but rewarding structured, data-rich pages This is exactly where PSEO thrives. PSEO pages are structured, data-rich, and hyper-specific. Google's AI can't easily summarize "best plumber in Boise, Idaho with 4.8 stars and same-day availability" into an AI Overview the way it can summarize "what is SEO." The long-tail is the last safe space from AI Overviews. Does PSEO always work? No. It fails when: — Pages are thin/duplicate (Google deindexed 98% of one travel site's 50K pages) — There's no unique data behind the template — You skip quality controls But when you have real data + smart templates + proper internal linking? PSEO scales faster, costs less, and targets buyers — not browsers. Traditional SEO builds your brand. PSEO fills your pipeline. Smart teams use both. 🔖Bookmark this. The SEO game just changed.

@OjasSharma276 At least it looks cool😂 Like you're a hacker (from the 90s, but still cool)

I will never understand colleges’ obsession with Turbo C++. I would honestly hate coding on that thing.

@fidexcode This is popular, but only among good developers 😉

Unpopular opinion A good code doesn't need comments to be understood.

@jayjanyani So where do you think the "written by a human" part fits in? Is it even worth writing blog articles yourself or just let AI generate 1000s of articles for you?

@the_greg_potter I was doing blogging in 2018 when SEO was the core thing. Now it is all gone
