Buft

Buft, my latest personal project, born from a deep curiosity about the wonders of compound interest and the investment philosophy of Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger.

Each year, I embark on a journey to create an end-to-end product, immersing myself in every facet of its development, this time using SwiftUI and iOS development with the help of ChatGPT, of course. This process is not just about building an app; it's an exploration into the realms of design, usability, and most importantly, understanding user needs.

Buft, at its heart, is a simple, intuitive calculator designed to bring the concept of compound interest to your fingertips. Inspired by Buffet and Munger's "sit-on-your-ass" investment strategy, this app is a tool for anyone intrigued by the potential of their financial choices. Enter a value, and Buft vividly illustrates how much it could grow over time if invested wisely. This functionality embodies my focus on creating a product that is not only useful but also engaging and easy to use.

The design of Buft reflects a philosophy of simplicity and clarity. In creating this app, I aimed to eliminate complexity, making the user experience as straightforward and pleasant as possible. The interface is clean and uncluttered, ensuring that users can focus on what matters: understanding the power of their financial decisions. It's about stripping away the superfluous to reveal the true essence of the product.

In conclusion, Buft is more than just a calculator; it's a manifestation of my annual commitment to personal growth and professional development. It represents a journey through the challenges and triumphs of product creation, culminating in a tool that not only serves a practical purpose but also educates and inspires. I invite you to explore Buft and discover the compelling simplicity of compound interest, a concept that can transform the way we think about our finances.
