five apps. one business. zero employees. people always ask how I run a whole app business by myself. honestly? it's mostly these five: 1. Claude: an AI assistant I think through ideas with, it even helps me build my apps 2. checkvibe.dev: a security scanner for websites, paste a link, get a report of what to fix in 30 seconds 3. Framer: a no-code website builder, design by dragging things around, hit publish and it's live 4. Obsidian: a private notes app, everything saved on my own computer forever 5. Resend: an email service that sends my apps' welcome messages, receipts and logins on autopilot they replace what used to take a whole team. I come up with ideas, build them, put them online and watch what people do with them, all from my laptop. if you want to leave the 9-5 one day, start by learning tools like these. save this. send it to the friend who keeps saying they'll 'start next month.' follow for more real talk about building alone. #sidehustle #indiesaas #vibecode #foundertok #productivity
