Silly SF Tech Billboards
Everything I drive by one of these new tech billboards, I always wanted to either fully read it but cannot focus, or want to take a photo of it and share but I cannot because I'm driving. So I want to curate them in a place to enjoy them later, and share with friends about how crazy SF is.

In plain words
Silly SF Tech Billboards is a collection platform for tech industry billboards spotted around San Francisco. It lets users browse and share the full text and images of billboards they've encountered while driving but couldn't stop to read or photograph. The site serves as a curated archive for people interested in the promotional messages and marketing trends of SF's tech scene, allowing them to enjoy and discuss the billboards with friends at their leisure rather than in traffic.

I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
