Building Envelope Budget

I've started wiring up the designs. Check out youtube.com/envelopebudget to see the video edition of this episode.

Sometimes we have downer days where we question our decisions and get discouraged. That is where I am today.

I will give a brief status update, and then I will share the story of how I got to go to lunch with Dave Ramsey on two different occasions.

This episode is for the developers out there who work with others, and may have to work on legacy code

In this episode, I discussed what I do with negative thoughts, and how I stay motivated.

I’ve decided on using Flowbite and Tailwind for the CSS and I made good progress tonight in building out the skeleton of the layout.

In this episode, I talk about some decisions. I’m trying to make with the front end. I need to just make some choices so that I can keep moving forward.

You can find this video on my YouTube channel if you want to see what the current status of the project is, or you can just listen to me talk about it here. https://youtube.com/envelopebudget

I go way back again in this episode and talk about how I got into programming and Web development and the career path I took. I also discuss the decisions I’ve made for the Tech stack for the new envelope budget.

I’m rebuilding EnvelopeBudget from the ground up (again). I’m planning on having an open source version! I talk about the tech stack I’m using for the backend and APIs.

Cease & desist letters, legal advice, rewriting and migrating. Frustrations and giving up.

In this first episode I will tell you a little bit about me and my background, and why I created my first envelope based budgeting app.
