Hey Reader - Simon here 👋 many of you lately ask me the same question: "What AI tools do you actually use?" The honest answer is... It's not really about the tools. It's about the workflow. Over the last months I've slowly built a setup that lets me go from an idea to a shipped feature much faster than I ever did before. This week I wanted to show you exactly what that looks like. 🎥 How I Build Apps with AI in 2026Instead of reviewing another AI tool, I walk through the complete workflow I use when building apps & features currently. I talk about:
Along the way I show how I combine different AI tools depending on the task instead of trying to make one tool do everything. This video is also sponsored by Sleek. Sleek makes it incredibly easy to design & export your app UI in minutes, simply by chatting with AI.

It came from building a bulletproof workflow. And understanding where which tool really shines and fits in. That's where the biggest gains come from. This might look different for everyone, so find what works best for you! 🛠 What I’m buildingTiny Harvest continues to surprise me. The community has become incredibly active recently. Players are discussing balance changes, suggesting features, and some have even started building a community wiki on their own 😍 That's honestly one of the coolest milestones so far. This week I'm mostly:
I'm also recording a new video about some of my favorite React Native tools, and getting everything ready before our vacation on Mallorca 😎 That's it for this week. The more I build, the more I realize that great workflows are worth investing in. They compound every single day. See you next week, |

Hey Reader - Simon here 👋 It’s been a while. For the first time in a long time, I basically took a month off from YouTube and this newsletter. Summer holidays happened, I spent a lot of time with my family, tinkered on Tiny Harvest whenever I felt like it… …and honestly, it was pretty nice. But school is starting again, I’m slowly getting back into work, and there’s A LOT I want to build and share over the next months. Starting with something that has changed quite a bit for Tiny Harvest. 🎥 I...
Hey Reader - Simon here 👋 in the past, I probably spent more time tweaking my development setup than I’d like to admit. Every now and then I’ll discover a new tool and think: “How did I build apps without this?” This week I wanted to share the tools that have genuinely become part of my daily workflow - not because they’re shiny, but because they actually save me time. 🎥 React Native Tools That Actually Save Time There are a lot of dev tools out there. Some are fun to try.Some disappear after...
Hey Reader - Simon here 👋 After a week on (hot!) Mallorca, I’m finally back at my desk with fresh motivation. One thing I always enjoy after taking a short break is looking at other people’s work. You notice small details again. The things that feel polished. The things that don’t. And that’s exactly what this week’s video is about. 🎥 I reviewed 3 Apps that were made with Ai Building apps has never been easier. Building a good app is still surprisingly hard. In this episode I reviewed three...
