Скачать или смотреть Collecting Every Edge Magazine… So I Built My Own Tracking App

I’ve decided to go for something I’ve thought about for years… the full set of Edge Magazine.

In this video, I talk through why Edge means so much to me as a gamer and collector, what makes the magazine so iconic, and why I’ve finally committed to hunting down every issue ever printed.

But this isn’t just a collecting video.

To help me track the collection properly, I built my own custom tracking app using “vibe coding” – leaning into rapid prototyping, AI-assisted development, and just building something useful without overthinking it. I walk you through:
• Why I didn’t want to rely on a spreadsheet
• How I approached designing the tracker
• The core features I included
• What I learned from building an app specifically for a retro collecting project

This is part collecting journey, part tech experiment, and part personal challenge.

If you’re into retro gaming, physical media, magazine collecting, or building small passion projects with code and AI tools, I think you’ll enjoy this one.

Let me know in the comments:
• Did you read Edge growing up?
• Are you collecting anything right now?
• Should I share more behind-the-scenes on building small apps like this?
