What I do at work: something like “teamlead” job in a SaaS project where most often issues are related to “homegrown” billing via stripe or paypal or occasional issues with app-specific data storage.
What I would like myself: code (not lead but code myself) a desktop local-first project I thinking about.
What I use for job: complex build flow including webpack, SCSS, react, MUI4, typescript 5, et cetera.
What I would use for my own project: vite, custom UI framework for custom elements based or tagged templates strings, and something for CSS files with “rules nesting syntax”. And regarding payments I would use the solution to accept payments that has the local bank.
This strong difference gives me some strong dissatisfaction lately. I even thinking that I should create own local-first software projects as attempt to make some own income, not because I lack money for day to day expenses right now but because I feel I need to do my own things I want to do in my own way to be more satisfied.
