Wanxin Ricardo/Independent Developer / AI Product Experimenter / One-Person Company Builder

I am building a long-term personal product line.

Independent development, AI product experiments, and one-person company practice.

8 years as a full-stack developer, 100+ projects shipped, and multiple independent apps launched. I build small, useful digital products and document the full loop from idea, development, launch, iteration, and monetization.

Selected products

These products form the long-term line

This is not a traditional portfolio. Each project reflects a real decision: what to build, what to leave out, who it serves, and whether it deserves more iteration.

03 projects

2 projects are currently highlighted, and 1 has reached a live stage. They are not isolated pieces of work, but samples of how ideas become products and products become long-term assets.

Selected projectBuilding

Old Friends Dinner

Friend gatherings / coordination

A lightweight coordination tool for dinner plans with people you already know, bringing time options, restaurant choices, attendance, and bill splitting into one simple flow.

  • Create a dinner plan with candidate times, budget, and restaurant direction in one place
  • Let participants pick available times directly instead of confirming repeatedly in group chat
  • Close the loop after the meal with a simple AA bill-splitting flow

Next step

Keep refining the full chain from creating a plan to confirming attendance and splitting the bill.

Da Huang Bie Pao

Gold market / real-time tracking

A real-time gold price assistant that puts international spot gold, AU9999, exchange rates, converted prices, and premium data into one focused interface.

  • Track international spot gold, domestic AU9999, exchange rates, and premium rate in real time
  • Read international intraday charts and domestic daily charts together
  • Use alerts, Dynamic Island, Lock Screen, and widgets for quick price checks

Next step

Improve alerts, charts, and quick-glance price surfaces across devices.

Product experimentValidating

Heartwarm

Mood journal / quiet companionship

A calm emotional journaling and light companion app that gives real feelings a clean, quiet, low-pressure place to be expressed.

  • Record a mood, a sentence, a feeling, or something that was hard to say out loud
  • Receive gentle, restrained responses that help organize emotions slowly
  • See personal changes through continuous records instead of forcing daily performance

Next step

Keep validating record frequency, companion style, and long-term retention.

Direction

What I am building

Not a set of scattered projects, but a personal business system made of products, AI experiments, public documentation, and long-term monetization.

Operating principles

The goal is not to look bigger. It is to develop my own judgment, product rhythm, and a loop that can hold over time.

01

Build my own products

After years of delivering projects for others, I want more of that experience to compound inside my own product system.

02

Put AI into real workflows

I do not treat AI as a demo topic. I test where it actually improves products, workflows, and repeatable output.

03

Document the loop publicly

Validation, development, launch, iteration, and monetization are part of the asset. I document the process as it happens.

Now

Current focus

The current focus is not starting more projects, but turning products, AI experiments, and public documentation into one long-term line.

Updated

April 2026. The recent priority is not expansion. It is going deeper on what has already started, and making products, content, and rhythm more stable together.

Current state

Narrowing focus

Not adding more projects, but going deeper on the product line already in motion.

Working style

Ship small

Let real usage decide whether a product deserves more complexity.

Long-term goal

One-person company

Turn products, writing, feedback, and revenue into a steady operating loop.

Products

Keep refining launched products so they become more stable, clearer, and closer to real demand.

I care more about long-term usage than adding more short-term features.

AI

Connect AI into products and workflows, then test which abilities are worth keeping.

The focus is not novelty. It is reuse, retention, and real efficiency.

Writing

Publicly document the full process from idea, development, launch, iteration, and monetization.

The records are not posture. They help compound judgment and method.

Focus

Reduce scattered effort and keep going deeper on directions that can compound.

Fewer fronts make the products, content, and working rhythm steadier.

Stay connected

Follow product iterations, AI experiments, and one-person company practice. Email and WeChat are both open for concrete questions, long-term collaboration, and same-frequency connection.

Good fit

If you are building products, content, AI tools, or exploring the one-person company path, this is a simple way to stay connected.

Product conversations

For people with a clear direction who want to sharpen the product, reduce noise, and validate faster.

Long-term collaboration

Best for work that values judgment, execution, and product taste over heavy process.

Same-frequency connection

For people following independent development, AI product experiments, and one-person company building.
