This resonates with me. I got into development exactly because I wanted to make things useful to me, with limited background in programming, over 20 years ago. Tech eventually got in the way. I was so bored with sandboxes, entitlements, signing apps, etc. The joy was gone. Now I am developing a new app with AI help. I may not be using the tools optimally but I don't care, it's a process. And it's a lie that this is a fast process. I have been working on one app for months, and now I have a pretty solid new app to show for it. Looking for MacOS Apple Music users for beta testers, BTW. Please have a look. https://www.woodenbrain.com/grooves.html
