UI Taste and Layout Refinement
Move past default AI-looking interfaces and make the tool feel intentional.
Data Models and Persistence
Decide what needs to be stored, what can stay temporary, and where state should live.
Auth, Payments, and Integrations
Add real product edges only after the tiny core loop already works.
Deployment, Analytics, and Testing
Learn how to ship, measure, and debug without losing control of the build.
Optional side branch. Use it if the background helps. Skip it if you just want the practical path.
Optional context for the wider idea behind this level.
Optional tooling guide if you want to start building faster.
