Travelling to China without getting lost, in Spanish

It's the app I want to use.

It's meant for Spanish speakers who want to go to China or understand its culture.

Outside work, I like travelling and I'm interested in China. So the first user is me.

Product and development. It's a personal project.

The decision that defines it: bringing travel, culture and language together in one place.

The other one is technical: website and mobile app in the same monorepo.

Four pieces. It's under construction: this is how it's designed, not what already works.

• Plan the trip with AI: a day-by-day itinerary, flights and hotels, and a practical toolkit. The AI works with in-depth knowledge of China and with Chinese national sources.

• Culture and tips: what's worth knowing about China for the trip.

• Learn Chinese: built around pinyin, Chinese written with the Latin alphabet.

• Website and app in a monorepo: Next.js for the website, React Native with Expo for mobile, and Supabase for the data.

There's no result to share yet.

What I've learnt so far: building the app you'd use yourself is an honest way to start.

You don't have to invent your user. You know what's missing because you miss it yourself.

There's a catch, though: one user isn't a market.

We'll see where it goes.
