I built PasteDB, an open-source developer tool, largely using a damaged bleeding smartphone. This is the story of building software despite hardware limitations and why imperfect hardware doesn't have to stop you from learning, coding, creating and SHIPPING.

My friend, I'm so sorry for you. You're really strong because you were able to create a working tool on something like that. You'll always have me supporting you and your projects.
