ACT prep startup I built from scratch. Find your weak spots, drill the exact stuff you're bad at, unlock scholarship money. In an 8-person beta, it projected a 2-3 point jump over a control group (starting from 27-28). Phase 1 is live, full platform still in progress.

Learned Lua by just building stuff. Full game economies: gamepasses, developer products, leaderboards. 24k+ visits and 45 players online at once, all organic.
Second product. Not ready to talk about it yet.
I'm Salahaldin Arifov. I'm 17. I go to Hume-Fogg in Nashville. I started building because I was impatient. No class was going to teach me what I wanted to know fast enough, so I just went and learned it.

Right now deep in 36.fyi and building a second product in stealth.
Recruiter, collaborator, or just curious. I read everything either way.
