  "account": "I just wrapped up work on a personal finance Progressive Web App (PWA). The project began because I desired a sleek, native-like experience (using a Liquid Glass UI design system), while still leveraging the speed of the web. Built with React 19, TypeScript, Vite, and Firebase, the app boasts eye-catching features such as an integrated AppLock (PIN/Biometrics) and a real-time multi-currency dashboard. However, my demanding full-time job left me with no time to devote to marketing or user acquisition.

The platform is ready for a premium tier or to be wrapped in Capacitor for app stores. I’ve included a screenshot of the main dashboard above to showcase the Liquid Glass design system at work. If you’re interested in purchasing the codebase, please comment below or send me a direct message to request a video walkthrough or a test account for the live demo. Many others have found themselves in a similar predicament – building a full product only to realize they lack the time to run it as a business.",
