Effort Estimation: Full Portfolio (3 Apps)

Phase	Skills	Hours	Outcome
Phase 1	5 core + security + app-review	~18h	1st app on App Store
Phase 2	sentry + revenuecat + fastlane + metadata	~20h	2nd app + analytics
Phase 3	ASO + reviews + animations + widgets	~20h	3rd app + growth
TOTAL	20 skills	~58h	3 apps, €200k

Reality check:

• 58 hours of skill creation
• 100+ hours of actual app building (per app = 30-40h)
• Total: ~200 hours over 24 months = 8-9 hours/week (very doable)
