Building Apps That Matter: My Journey Begins
Hello 👋 I’m Ahmet Çelik, a Full-stack Mobile Developer.
This is the beginning of my blog — a space where I’ll share my journey, ideas, and lessons while building apps that I hope will make life a little easier, calmer, and more meaningful.
Why I Build Apps
I believe technology should serve people in real, practical ways.
That’s why I want to create apps that focus on:
- Helping people with ADHD — tools that simplify choices, reduce overwhelm, and celebrate small wins.
- Supporting elders — apps that are simple, accessible, and designed with empathy.
For me, apps aren’t just software — they are companions that can quietly guide and support us in our daily lives.
The Road Ahead
My dream is to live by my own apps — to step away from corporate jobs and instead invest my energy into building meaningful, independent products.
This road includes:
- Becoming better at marketing and storytelling, so I can bring my apps to the right people.
- Exploring how to be both an indie developer and a consultant for end-to-end solutions — from design and code to deployment and beyond.
- Honing my craft in UI/UX, with beautiful interfaces and soft, meaningful animations that bring delight without distraction.
My Philosophy
I am a fan of Stoicism — its wisdom reminds me to stay calm, disciplined, and focused on what I can control.
This mindset is what keeps me grounded while exploring new tools, learning every day, and challenging myself with new ideas.
For me, building apps is more than a career — it’s a way of life, a practice in self-improvement, and an opportunity to serve others.
What’s Next?
I’ll be writing here about:
- The apps I’m working on and the challenges I face.
- Insights on mobile development, UI/UX design, and product building.
- Lessons from marketing, growth, and indie hacking.
- Thoughts inspired by Stoicism and lifelong learning.
This is just the start — I’m excited to share, learn, and grow along the way.
Thanks for reading,
Ahmet Çelik
