Journal Entry #2: The First Pivot
Turning an Idea into a Solution
Date: December 27, 2024
The idea evolved quickly. While brainstorming what BuildWithMatija.com could be, I realized it could also solve a problem I was facing at the time: creating a polished, developer-friendly resume for freelance platforms.
I checked out tools for resume-building, but none fit my needs. That’s when I decided to make my own. Using Tailwind CSS for styling, I created a one-page resume-styled webpage that included a simple feature: one-click PDF generation. This small pivot turned the project into something functional and personal—a reflection of what I could build for myself and others.
