How Zinley Built Zinley: A Self-Building AI Developer

Hey there! Khoi here. I want to share something incredible with you - the story of how Zinley actually helped build itself. It's a fascinating example of AI bootstrapping that we're incredibly proud of.

When we first created Zinley as an iOS developer, we quickly realized its potential went far beyond mobile apps. We decided to put Zinley to the ultimate test: could it help build and improve itself? The results amazed us.

Today, approximately 60-80% of Zinley's current infrastructure was built with Zinley's own assistance, under human supervision of course. Our desktop application? Zinley helped build that. Our full-stack development engine? Zinley was there every step of the way. Even the website you're reading this on was largely developed with Zinley's help!

This self-building process has been revolutionary. While we maintain careful oversight and make crucial architectural decisions, Zinley handles much of the heavy lifting - from generating code to implementing features and solving complex technical challenges. It's like having an incredibly skilled development team that works tirelessly alongside us.

What makes this especially exciting is that each iteration of Zinley helps build a better version of itself. It's a virtuous cycle of continuous improvement - as Zinley gets better, it becomes more capable of improving itself further. Of course, we're always there to guide the process, ensure quality, and make key decisions, but Zinley's capabilities continue to amaze us.
