01
Why I built it
After my son was born, I wanted one simple place to log feeds, diapers, sleep and vaccines, and to share it with the rest of the family. So I built the app I wanted to use.
02
How I built it
I built Minilu in Lovable as a mobile app and took it all the way to the App Store. Parents can log feeding, diapers, sleep, baths, vitamins and solid food, follow a vaccine schedule, track growth, set reminders and appointments, and invite family members to the same baby profile.







03
What I learned
It was my first mobile app. I learned how to get one live from scratch, mostly by watching YouTube videos, and shipped it anyway. The data taught me the next lesson: building it was not the hardest part. Getting a new parent from sign-up to their first log is.
