"another internal tool built within a day ✅ this time it wasn't one shotted but this one will probably save us 100+ hours conservatively one of the core aspects of is to give users quality image filters that replicate the look & feel of real film cameras (i.e. fujifilm leica etc.) it used to takes hours going back and forth implementing reviewing and implementing again now our rockstar designer @yenisdesigning can create a new camera filter in minutes srsly you're ngmi if you don't start building internal tools for efficiency get those idle agents to build tools that you and your team can use"
