    Moving banners to remote config + a tiny admin dashboard

    Today was all about finalising the new partnership config structure.

    I created new iOS and Android releases after moving our banner configuration fully to our backend API. We already had a small remote-config endpoint for the top alert banner, so I extended it to also serve the banner/ad config. For now it’s basically a JSON dump, but that’s enough to unblock us, the main goal was removing the need for app-store releases for every banner change.

    After verifying everything in the app and also including a few bug fixes from current version, we built 3.2.2 and shipped it to both stores.

    Android was approved almost instantly.

    iOS is still in review, but hopefully it lands tomorrow.

    In the meantime, I also added a simple admin dashboard on the backend to manage the JSON. It’s not a polished UI, just a text input for the config but it works. This is exactly the type of scrappy tooling you need when speed matters; the nice UI can always come later, the output won’t change anyway.

    A reflection from this week

    Something became very clear to me:

    I pivoted based on a real opportunity and executed fast.

    This is the founder muscle I’ve been building for years.

    Planned:

    Launch the first Kit of Happiness product.

    Actual:

    🚨 Temettü got a real partnership interest
    → shifted gears immediately
    → built the full partnership infrastructure in ~5 days
    → shipped a production app update (3.2.2)
    → implemented a proper Ad/Banner system
    → wrote tracking + partner documentation
    → prepared Temettü to monetize properly with custom partnerships

    This wasn’t “I didn’t follow my plan.”

    This was responding to real opportunity with precision which is exactly what indie makers/studios need in order to grow.

    A good week.
