FlagoDNA✨ Founder's Journey
From Solo Developer to Purpose-Driven Builder
For years, I worked alone — coding, designing, fixing bugs, and uploading apps that almost no one noticed.
I wasn't chasing fame or millions of downloads. I just wanted to build something meaningful 💫
I made Quran readers 📖, hadith collections, daily prayer trackers 🕌, and even little games that helped people relax before bed 🌙
Each one started with a simple question:
What if I could make something that made someone's life easier — or strengthened their faith?
🌟 Core Mission Question
But working alone is lonely 😢 You send emails 📧 Show demos 🎬 Explain your vision...
And often... no response 🤐
You start to wonder — 💭 does anyone care about what I'm making?
Some of my apps feature ads — not because I like them 😅, but because they're what keeps me going 🚀
As an independent developer, that small income is the fuel that keeps my mission alive — so I can keep building and improving my apps for free for everyone 🎁
The income is low. Sometimes very low 📉 But it's enough to survive 💪
Then I realized something 🤔 I was still thinking like a developer — not like a builder with a mission 🎯
Developers
Make things work 🔧
Builders
Give things purpose ✨
I stopped worrying about who didn't believe me 🙅♂️ And I began to focus on why I started this in the first place:
To create technology that helps people live and worship more peacefully
That's when my work began to feel alive again 🌱
Now My Mission is Clear ✨
To create simple, faith-centered digital tools — either minimally ad-supported or completely free — that work quietly 🤫, without distraction, and make kindness easier to practice every day 💝
I'm still one person coding late into the night 🌃
But I'm no longer building alone 👥
Every user who opens my app 📱 Every person who feels calmer, or closer to God because of it — they are the team I've been building all this time 🤝
Let's Keep Building Together 🚀
If you believe technology should serve people — not control them — then you understand what I'm trying to do 💡
Let's keep building a world like that 🌍 One small app at a time 📲
