Studio
A magazine room for mobile craft
think-core.one started as a late-night device lab beside Pu Tzu Street—phones stacked like magazines, each spine labeled with GPU quirks. We still review that way: small cohorts, loud critique, quiet documentation.
Principles
Devices over decks
If it does not show on a mid-tier phone, it is not done.
Graphs in public
State diagrams are shared early—no surprise architecture on week five.
Release as rehearsal
Store copy and crash budgets get the same rigor as widgets.
Capstone with receipts
Ship-room tracks end with artifacts: scripts, rollback notes, reviewer Q&A.
Timeline
