Welcome to Clief Notes. Here's where to start.
1. Watch the intro video and introduce yourself in the intro post here 2. Start with The Foundation (free course). Concepts, folder architecture, prompting framework. Everything else builds on this. 3. Check in at the bottom of each lesson. Polls, discussion posts, other members working through the same stuff. Use them. 4. When you're ready to build real things, move to Implementation Playbooks (Level 2). When you're ready to build your own tools, Building Your Stack (Level 3). 5. Post your work. Ask questions. Help others when you can. What are you here to build?

🌶️ CINCO DE MAYO FIRESALE — STARTS NOW 🌶️
Locked in for the next 5 days only. Ends May 5th at 10:00 AM EST. No exceptions. 🎉 Premium: $27 → $14/mo 🎉 VIP: $97 → $67/mo The closest you'll get to our original launch pricing. We're doing this because the community has shown up for us, and we want to show up back. 🤝 🔥 Already a member? Read this carefully. To lock in the new rate, you need to: 1. Cancel your current plan 2. Resign under the new price That's the only way the system can apply the new rate. We have way too many members for manual refunds, so we can't refund anyone who just signed up at current pricing. But the savings stack month over month, so if you plan to stick around (and you should 😁), the math works out fast. 🚫 A few ground rules: Please do not DM myself or Jake about pricing, exceptions, or extensions. We love you, but we're a small team and we need to stay focused on building. Everyone gets the same window. Everyone gets the same deal. If you miss it, you miss it. We'll do more things for the community down the road. ⏰ The clock: 🟢 LIVE NOW 🔴 Locks May 5th, 10:00 AM EST - Premium gets you The Vault and Afternoon Tea calls. - VIP gets you The Drawing Room, High Tea, and bespoke folder builds from Jake himself. If you've been on the fence, this is the moment. 🚀 Tag a friend who needs to be in here. Let's make Cinco a movement. 🎊 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Who's here? Drop your intro.
Tell us three things: 1. What you do (job, industry, student, career-changer, whatever) 2. What brought you to Clief Notes 3. One thing you're trying to figure out right now related to computing or AI I'll respond to every single one. And read each other's intros too because the person who's stuck on the same problem as you might already be in this thread. I'll go first I am Jake, I have been working in tech for 15 Years, building with Generative AI for 3 Years straight now! Excited to teach and learn! That's it. Simple, scannable, gives you data on who's joining and what they need, and keeps the feed clear for content that retains people past week one.

finally built headless wordpress website :D
Inspired by @Curtis Hays, I finished an experiment that I had started a few weeks ago. I started my company as a local web design agency in 2014. I've pivoted a few times since, where our core offer is that of Fractional CMO services, but we still do some agency type work for existing clients, friends, and family. I was ready to throw in the towel on web builds just because they take so much time and I hadn't cracked the code on building sites with ongoing content. I finally got it this evening! We've gotten good at building unique sites using Claude with next.js, files live in github, website runs on vercel. This evening I was able to get a headless WordPress environment where I can add/edit/delete content, but the design still lives in Vercel! I realize this might seem like a small thing for some, but it's a ginormous win for the 8 SIGNAL team :D It's gonna save us sooooooo much time rebuilding from next.js to Elementor. Huge shoutout to Curtis. By sharing his win, he inspired me to dig further into this and figure it out! Here's the site that was previously just a "static" site on vercel, now all the content is coming from a wordpress install: https://century-rentals.vercel.app/ P.S. If you have a better way of managing websites that require a CMS and SEO/AEO, don't hold back. I won't be deflated. I'm always looking for ways to improve and do things better. P.P.S. Website's for a buddy, and still not finalized yet, so I'm taking some liberty to mess around with him about baseball because he knows less than I do, and I don't know much LOL!
