How did you come up with the name? Doesn't solito mean something like "a little lonesome" in Spanish? This is two products combined, wouldn't something like "festoso" make more sense?



Solito gives a “solo dev” the power to build for multiple platforms.

I built our entire product from scratch for iOS, Android and Web. Rather than rushing to hire a team to do each thing, I felt that if I built the right abstraction layers, it could all be done by one person.

It can be a lonely road when you’re the only one, but Solito helps you feel a little less solo


Just to give you another perspective :) I love the name, I think it conveys what you just said. I really like direction you took and utilizing Next.js and React Native is wonderful combination.


Especially in Latin America, the diminutive is used much more widely than just to communicate "small" (noun), or "a little" (adjective). Perhaps "solito" here can be interpreted something like "quite a cowboy".


looking forward to Arturito ;D
