💡 New Idea – Beautiful Code #38 - [Corrected]

A few weeks ago, I came across a problem in a project. I had encountered it before, but I had always solved it in a rather clumsy and inefficient way. This time, I decided to dig a bit deeper and see if there was a tool that could help me solve it better.

Hey! It’s Marc 👋

A few weeks ago, I came across a problem in a project. I had encountered it before, but I had always solved it in a rather clumsy and inefficient way. This time, I decided to dig a bit deeper and see if there was a tool that could help me solve it better.

I found several, but they were all too complex—packed with features that, from my point of view, were excessive for what I actually needed. That made me think: what if I could create the ideal tool for this specific case myself?

I only needed 3 or 4 basic features, but implemented well, in a simple and fast tool. So, I started designing and coding it. I'm still working on it, but I hope to have it ready soon so I can show it to you.

If you're curious and want to know more, feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to chat!

That’s all for now. Have a great week! 😊

Before we continue I want to remind you that you can support Beautiful Code buying me a coffee ☕️ I love good coffee! 😍
