Every developer has small pain points that repeat daily—renaming files, formatting datasets, cleaning up folders, or running the same commands over and over. Most people endure them; great developers automate them. In this episode, I explore how simple scripts, small CLIs, and lightweight internal tools can remove hours of friction from your week.

We talk about the practical side of tooling: how to identify bottlenecks, when to automate, and how a 10-minute script can pay dividends for years. I also break down a few real examples of micro-tools I use daily—from component generators to bulk asset processors—and how they transformed my workflow.

Smarter tools aren’t a luxury. They’re a multiplier. And once you start building them intentionally, your entire development rhythm changes.
