    I love one thing in particular that you touch on in the video:
    Customer's don't care about your tech stack!
    They care about how easy/quick/cheaply they can get their job done. 💜

    • @TimothyJoh
      @TimothyJoh Před 3 měsíci +6

      Customers DO care, just not overtly. If you pick a stack that is poor in SEO, you will get less traffic and fewer purchases. It matters to the extent that it is “good enough” for small projects with under 100k users. Then you have to start optimizing.

      His #1 source of income (according to his website) is selling you on this exact tech stack. It's akin to someone saying "I make $1k per month as an author" where their best selling book is "How to Make $1k per Month as an Author".

      I mean, a lot of people are also worried about what will be employable 5-10 years down the road too. But if you're getting your own clients, who really cares?
      But do keep in mind: until he very recently kinda lucked out and hit it big with shipfast and made 200k in 3 months (2k*$200 sales in 3 months is INSANE btw so hats off), he was making basically 50k a year. And as much as people will talk shit about webdev, making pretty websites is an art (that I personally suck at).
