  1. DevlogDevlog #4: The Bug I Left on PurposeWires that stick, an autoconnect that wouldn't cooperate, and two weeks of refactoring with nothing to show for it. The early days of Sketrix.
  2. DevlogDevlog #3: I'm the Conductor, Claude is the MusicianWhat my AI workflow actually looks like after 73,000 lines of code — what I did wrong and what works now.

  4. DevlogDevlog #1: 65,000 Lines of Code and Zero Swift ExperienceHow an industrial master electrician built an ECAD app in 3 months — with AI tools, a lot of patience, and even more frustration.
