When @HassanElMghari isn’t working as a Senior Developer Advocate at Vercel, he is working on "little" side projects that end up getting used by hundreds of thousands of people. Projects like AI Commits, Room GPT, and restorePhotos! Hassan is a master at harnessing the power of AI and his projects definitely reflect all the good AI can bring into the world of web development. In this video (which we filmed rather spontaneously at React Miami), Hassan talks about what motivates him to come up with all these side projects.

    This aged well. Dude got fired from vercel because he stole vercel customer projects and threatened with legal notices. That's how you stay productive lol

  • Randomly read about room-gpt the other day, what an impressive guy! Vercel is really everywhere these days huh?

    I also, like many other developers try to work on personal small projects, but it is really hard. For example, here what Hassan has is not only the software but also full-on functional websites with backends, and frontends, and probably some of them have serverless integration. Which is awesome. I for one don't have the experience working is various fields, I usually focus on some specific area. I also little to no time balancing studies (exams and assignments) and work 😅 I would love to be on the same level as Hassan some day in the near future. I am a first-year atm and I know I am on my way to being efficient in working on such projects, but it still sometimes fascinates me, how people create such cool and good-looking personal projects.
