How I created an app but the point is sharing the opportunity this tech can create and teaching your children

 Boom! We’re back with another one. Welcome to the Street Entrepreneurs, where we keep it real. I want you to take this journey with me, and let’s go through this process together. So, it’s a new day. Let’s talk about it. I wanted to discuss the app I developed. It seems like everybody is running around using it, sharing links, and expecting to make a whole bunch of money. But I don’t want to focus solely on the app; I also want to talk about the ability to create these apps. As a newbie with limited development skills and as an urban entrepreneur who looks like you and me, I want to share my experience. Moving forward, let’s discuss what we’ve built.

This marks one of the fastest intensifications ever recorded in the Atlantic. After weakening slightly to a Category 4, Milton is still expected to cause widespread devastation when it makes landfall on Florida's Gulf Coast.

The proximity of these two major storms—Helene hitting just weeks earlier, causing extensive damage and loss of life—has left Florida in a precarious situation. Recovery from Helene is still underway, with debris and damage increasing the potential hazards from Milton. Officials have described Milton as a "once-in-a-lifetime" event, warning of life-threatening storm surges, floods, and winds​(

Milton's rapid intensification, combined with its timing so soon after Helene, has made it a historic weather event, drawing comparisons to past instances of back-to-back hurricanes. The cumulative damage and strain on emergency response efforts are expected to be immense.
