Pick a path and jump back to the interactive view
Each path opens short context + subscribe inside the interactive story.
As skill gets copied, durable value shifts to judgment: choosing direction, selecting quality, and curating outcomes users trust.
Start here if you want the full phone-to-Mac setup: relay, workflow, and OTA install loop.
Open setup guide →Start here if you have not shipped code before and want a practical first project path.
Open beginner guide →Start here if you are comparing options before picking your stack and operating model.
Open comparison →This series is for PMs and operators who want to ship, not just discuss AI. If you have never shipped code, start with Series 01. If you already build daily, jump to Phone-first.
Pick a real use case, choose one AI coding tool, and deliver a first output in 48 hours. No prompt library rabbit holes.
Focus: tool choice · first ship · confidence
Use AI to generate your first draft specs, then tighten with constraints, experiments, and measurable outcomes.
Focus: intent clarity · constraints · outcomes
Move from visual prototypes to real code paths, internal dogfood, and decision-grade usage data for leadership review.
Focus: dogfood · feedback loops · launch criteria
Treat your phone as control plane and Mac mini/cloud as execution host. Build, review, and deploy while away from desk.
Focus: async control · remote deploy · momentum
As execution gets cheaper, your edge is choosing direction, communicating clearly, and compounding distribution.
Focus: curation · leadership comms · network
Architecture, SwiftUI client flow, bridge, Tailscale, OTA, and the iPhone-first operating model.

Open comparison →Chetan Ankola builds and ships iOS apps using AI as a daily tool, not a demo generator.
Codex Relay is his current obsession: a native iPhone client that controls Codex on a personal Mac mini, so shipping does not require being at a desk.
This site is the playbook: workflows, architecture notes, and PM templates that turn prototypes into decisions and shipped features.
