Here's the CRM I need.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And also it wasn't just like a boring CRM.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It was like, I need you to make a CRM that kind of engages me as a developer who doesn't wake up and go, let's do sales, gamify it for me.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And then here are the ways I want you to do that.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

That was my kind of like coding agent's moment.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And I think you have that moment when you do a new project, where you use an LLM and a completely greenfield project, and there's no kind of existing code.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It's going to kind of mess up or get wrong, and the project's not too big.

And just built the whole freaking CRM.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And it was really good.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It was a good CRM, and it worked really well.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And so that was like my kind of like level one awakening, which was like this idea that you can just have the sass you want instantly.

The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It suddenly felt true.

Because I had done it and I have canceled the old CRM system now.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And there's a bunch of other tools I plan to cancel.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

Not because they're all crap, but because...

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It's harder to use them than it is to just say what I want because I kind of have to learn how to use those tools.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

Whereas I can just say, make me the thing, make me the website I want instead of using a website builder tool or make me the CRM that I want to use.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

And then there's this like different cycle that you have, the like loop that you have of improvement where it's not a one, it's not build and then use the software.

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source
The era of the Small Giant (Interview)

It's like as you're using the software, you can improve the software at any time.
