Learn English.
Start with grammar.
MonGram English is the English grammar app I develop with Flutter for Android and iOS.
Ask about MonGramHow I approach creative work.
For me, creativity is more than coming up with something new. It means observing a problem, connecting what I have learned and trying a useful way forward.
Observe
Start with what is happening.
I watch how people work, learn and use tools. Friction, repetitive tasks and unanswered questions are often the starting points for an idea.
Connect
Let different fields meet.
I bring technology together with design, education and product thinking. A perspective from another field can help me reframe a question and find a better approach.
Try and learn
Make an idea visible.
I sketch, explore layouts or build something small to see an idea more clearly. When something does not work, I adjust, record what I learned and continue instead of waiting for perfection.
Looking ahead
What I want to build next.
I want to build on the products I am making: improve each experience, create a lasting foundation and open opportunities for others. These are directions I am pursuing, not a confirmed release schedule.
Products
Make things better before making more.
I want to keep improving existing apps, complete Monhanzii and then develop the next language apps. Each product needs a clear purpose and a genuinely useful experience.
Foundations
Build for continued development.
I want to standardise data, design and documentation so the work does not start from scratch each time. What I build should be maintainable, transferable and open to collaboration.
Sharing
Turn learning into opportunity.
I want to share methods, experiments and things that did not work. Helping someone else start or take another step is also part of the value I hope to create.
Beyond the apps
Under
the surface.
AI research and systems development at Yuanpei University of Medical Technology (元培醫事科技大學), where I study.
Answers with sources.
Researching a RAG system that retrieves documents and generates answers with citations.
Deployed on the university's research equipment.

How I build apps.
From a real problem to a product that can keep evolving. I break the work into clear steps, revisit decisions and adjust along the way.
01 / Understand
Does someone really need this?
I start with people, use cases and practical constraints. I define what the app should help them do before choosing technology.
02 / Prepare data
Content before features.
For language apps, I prepare dictionaries, examples and learning paths, check sources and licences, and review samples. Unverified material needs to be identified.
03 / Design
See the direction before building.
I explore layouts, colours and artwork, then agree on a shared design system. This helps clarify the lookup, learning and review flows.
04 / Build
Make one flow work, then expand.
I split products into smaller pieces, connect data to the interface and keep reusable structure. Offline learning is central to the new app family.
05 / Verify
Running is not the same as finished.
I check code, builds, content and interfaces on devices. Monhanzii is being tested on iPhone; anything not yet checked is not treated as passed.
06 / Improve
Make the next iteration better.
I document design decisions, changes and outstanding work. I distinguish prototypes from releases so the product can remain maintainable.
Big change begins with small ideas.
I believe something meaningful does not have to begin with a grand plan. Sometimes it starts with a question, a small frustration and the decision to make it better.
Notice
A small question can open a new direction.
Why is this difficult? Could it be simpler? I start with questions close to everyday life rather than trying to find a huge idea from the outset.
Begin
A small experiment goes beyond thinking.
A sketch, a task flow or a simple tool makes an idea concrete. I try something manageable to learn what to keep and what needs to change.
Persist
Small improvements can make a difference.
I want to keep observing, learning and refining. Not every idea becomes a product, but what I learn from each attempt can make the next step better.
