May 2025 Thought Notes AI-Era Independent Development: Frontend as the Main Battlefield for Value Delivery May 1, 2025 - 10:22:06 In the AI era, the battlefield of independent development is shifting toward the frontend. The transformation is evident: Backend Simplification: AI models turn core services into universal capabilities, lowering technical barriers in backend development. SaaS and PaaS providers encapsulate vast foundational capabilities that developers can directly invoke. Frontend as Value Delivery Nexus: The frontend is closest to users, making it easier to focus on MVP (Minimum Viable Product) and single-person product loops. Using a tech stack like Next.js / Tailwind / Firebase / Vercel enables full-stack delivery and rapid validation of the “function → value → growth” chain.

LIST Two different experiences brought by fineness ｜ 2025-06-02 14:16:04 There are two kinds of subtleties in the world: one is perfectionism and the other is touching. Why does the latter often touch our hearts more? The refinement of perfectionism is the persistence in “perfection” itself - the flawless surface of ceramics and the accuracy of each note on the piano keys.
