The One-Person Team Managing 12 Projects: Our Real Story - Wempily
People ask me all the time: "How do you manage 12 projects at once?"
The honest answer? I don't. Not in the traditional sense.
I don't create project plans. I don't hold status meetings. I don't maintain separate task lists for each project. I don't spend hours updating project management tools.
I just build. And Wempily tracks it.
The Numbers That Sound Impossible
Here's what one person has accomplished using this approach:
- •[object Object] running simultaneously
- •[object Object] generated and shipped
- •[object Object] served across multiple platforms
- •[object Object] in active use
- •[object Object]
These aren't aspirational numbers. They're real. And they're all tracked automatically.
The Secret: Your Work Already Tells the Story
Every commit I make contains everything a project management tool needs to know:
- •[object Object] I built (from the commit message)
- •[object Object] I built it (from the timestamp)
- •[object Object] it's for (from the repository)
- •[object Object] progress was made (from the code changes)
I was already documenting my work. I just wasn't using that documentation.
Wempily reads my Git history and creates tasks automatically. No manual entry. No context switching. No stopping to update a tool.
What This Actually Looks Like
On any given day, I might:
- •Fix a bug in the Kifuliiru dictionary
- •Add a new feature to Imyazi.com
- •Generate educational content for language learners
- •Update the Tabula dashboard
- •Work on Wempily itself
- •Build new tools for the community
Each commit becomes a task. Each task is linked to its project. Each project shows real progress based on actual work done.
I don't manage projects. I build, and the projects manage themselves.
The Infrastructure That Makes It Possible
This isn't about being superhuman. It's about having the right infrastructure.
Traditional project management assumes you'll stop working to update the tool. But when you're moving fast—especially with AI-assisted development—that assumption breaks down.
Wempily works the way I work: automatically, in the background, without interruption.
The Real Question
The question isn't "How do you manage 12 projects?"
The question is: "Why are you still manually managing projects when your work already documents itself?"
Your commits are your project management. Your Git history is your timeline. Your code is your progress report.
You just need a tool that reads what you're already writing.
