Hello World: Building Something Simple, One Step at a Time

Here we go. I've always admired builders—the ones who take an idea and bring it to life, even if they have no idea where to start. Over the last couple of months I've been experimenting with the some ideas and finally I think I've hit on something that I'm excited to stay all night doing - building with AI. I just built a simple, minimal blogging app using Bolt.new. The kicker? I don’t know how to code. Yet, notebk.co exists! This app is far from perfect. It’s basic, but intentionally so. I wanted to strip away the noise and focus on what really matters: giving people a clean, intuitive way to share their thoughts with the world. No bloat, no endless customization options—just the essentials. Why am I doing this? Honestly, to see if I can. To learn. To build. To explore what happens when you combine curiosity, a few great tools, and a willingness to figure things out as you go. Over the coming days, I’ll be documenting my journey here—what I’m building, how I’m marketing it, and, yes, how I plan to make money from it. I don’t have all the answers, but I think that’s the point. I’m not aiming for perfection; I’m aiming to make progress, one post, one tweak, one decision at a time. If you’re into that kind of thing—learning by doing, making things happen even when you don’t have it all figured out—stick around. I’ll be sharing the wins, the failures, and everything in between. Who knows? Maybe we’ll both learn something along the way. Here’s to starting. Here’s to simple beginnings. Let’s build something together.
