Captain Danko’s JavaScript Lab — Code Smarter with Tutorials, Frameworks & Dev Insights

In the last few years, I have gotten pretty all right at developing for iOS, it’s a jump from being a web and BI developer for the 6+ years before that. Recently, I tried to see if I can think of an app concept, document it, start working on it and submit it to the app store for review in a day? Well…as I discovered, I cannot, it takes me close to 2 days or 3 working days to do so. This is my timesheet for that entire process, 5:00am: Think about the problem the app solves and write a blogpost 7:00am: Think of the app UI concept 9:30am: Start learning those unknown iOS API 1:00pm: After lunch start coding the app in question 9:00pm: After having a gym and dinner break, stop working on the nearly complete app. Next day 6:00am: Finish the app i.e. from nearly complete to complete 8:00am: Think of the app icon design concept 9:00am: Make the app icon 1:00pm: Do a final round of testing 2:00pm: Think of and write the app store description and keywords 4...

You may think that I would have made an impulsive decision and quit my day job (still had it after accident), however I did not. Despite, my world falling apart around me (marriage plans cancelled, breakup, cannot walk etc etc), I did not loose foresight. I knew starting my own startup would mean that I wouldn’t have any stable income for some time. Hence I did not quit my day job as a full-stack d...
