## free with tech

### axis iteration

Finished React Native prototype in React Native. Rewrote to Swift. Rewrote it for the 2nd time to use SwiftData for data persistence. The plan is to publish the app on App Store by the end of July.

### Content creation continues

I've managed to record 18 videos for my YouTube channel since the end of February 2025. They are public documentation of my indie hacker journey with purpose.

## Hostio

### We have a name

I've been working on a secret project since the end of 2024, which is now public and you can see it [hostio.app](https://hostio.app) Even a small host can offer a hotel-like experience.

## Project hunt

### Interviewed for a job in 2 companies

I found interesting opportunities on LinkedIn so I applied and got into the recruitment process. Managed to go to 2nd round but failed to move past that in both cases.

### Freelance mindset

Since I am building my own products as part of [freewith.tech](https://freewith.tech), I am leaning more into a freelance mindset and prefering projects over full-time employee role.
