6 months of nights and weekends. Launched 2 days ago. Here's what the journey looked like. ## What I Built **Devly** a native macOS menu bar app with 50+ developer utilities. The problem I was solving: constantly jumping between browser tabs for formatting JSON, testing regex, converting colors, and hashing strings every single day. ## The Numbers So Far (Day 1) - Hit #1 in Developer Tools on the Mac App Store - Listed on MacMenuBar.com - Featured consideration submitted to Apple - iOS Dev Weekly reached out after submission ## What I'd Do Differently - **Plan for Apple's App Sandbox from day one** — retrofitting compliance across 50+ tools late in development added weeks to my timeline - **Ship earlier** — I kept adding one more tool when I should have launched sooner - **Build your architecture pattern early** — I created a ToolProtocol pattern halfway through that made everything cleaner ## What's Working for Promotion - Reddit communities - Emailing Mac bloggers and YouTubers - Submitting to directories like MacMenuBar and Product Hunt ## What I'm Still Figuring Out - How to maintain momentum after launch day - How to reach developers who don't use Reddit **$4.99 one-time, macOS 13+, no subscriptions.** [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/devly/id6759269801?mt=12) | [Website](https://devly.techfixpro.net/) | [See all 50+ tools](https://devly.techfixpro.net/tools/) What worked for you when launching your first app? Would love advice from people who have been through this!
