I have developed about 20 mobile apps for the KaiOS ecosystem, which does around $500-$750 a month.

I also run https://monitorprices.org, which is just a list of available monitors on Amazon, but provides a bit more filters. Does about $125 a month, maybe double if there’s a creator reward campaign running.

Nothing splashy or exciting really, but it gives me motivation to keep trying things.

This is interesting. Why did you pick KaiOS? If money was the goal, I guess iOS and Android would make more, isn't it?

How does the development process feel like?

I did some work for a client who wanted to build an app for it. After that I ended up building a few apps just for fun, and once they started bringing in some ad money, I just ended up building more.

I think their ecosystem is still small enough that good apps do well, whereas with iOS/Android you really have to build super polished apps and market them to thrive.

KaiOS is just HTML/JavaScript, I ended up using Vue and building my own component library that I could re-use in every app.
