Building a Second App and Getting Comfortable with Next.js
на канале: Shanté Starts Again
In this episode I share my internal debate about uploading vlog content to YouTube, feeling pulled by the lack of diversity in the space (clearly I decided to do the thing!). I discuss my newest project, an interactive map, and my increased comfort with Next.js secondary to a recently completed course. I touch on the importance of building an audience, the role of content creation, and grapple with the intersection of my current business and the emerging possibilities in AI tech.
