People ask me this all the time, and it's not something to sum up in two sentences. There are a lot of things to consider if you're moving from web to mobile, particularly in the React ecosystem.

That makes sense. Our boilerplate is for all new-code projects where we get to pick the stack, in which case we default to all things TypeScript anyway. If a client project has an incompatible existing codebase, we take a different approach.

In our Next.js boilerplate, we got some nice gains and DX improvements from replacing our Apollo Server installation with tRPC.

Consulting is often the quickest cash, assuming you're an engineer with a decent network. You're not on socials, but do you have people you've worked with? Contacts at businesses? Other devs?

Email everyone telling them you have a few weeks free.

You could also call tech recruiters who could potentially place you on a short gig fast. But will naturally take a cut.

Alternatively, I know others made good money doing crypto day trading, but I'd imagine you'd have to know what you're doing.

That’s awesome. What service do you use?

Or do you mean a custom webservice your company built?

Some of this you can look up on CrunchBase beforehand, which you definitely should do. For me I believe in trying to gauge just how prone to borrowing the founders are; if they have a solid model and are more inclined to seek profit rather than investment (except after proving the model, and primarily to increase growth), then that's a good sign.

If however they seem like they approach is constantly to borrow money, that's a red flag.

* How much runway does the company have? What will the plan be when we start to run out? * How well have you proven the business model? * What type of validation/research did the team do for product-market fit (before building the product)? * What's the management team's approach to profit vs investment?

I wrote this up to share some things we've learned about how to reuse your styles in React Native, closer to how you might do it on the web with SASS/LESS.

Hardline stance, over-the-top, pretty funny. I do find alphabetizing to reduce the time it takes to think while writing CSS.

Tons more detail available, reach out to me.

I know there are a lot of ADHD programmers out there. These techniques have worked well for me.

I'd love to know what your challenges / solutions are as well.

Yeah that's a good point. As time goes on your ability to pick what to skimp on definitely gets better.

Great points, I agree 100%

Great, thanks for these. The legal/financial aspects were challenging for me too, I'll definitely make note of that.
