No Code, No Degree: I Built a SaaS in One Year

A year ago I'd never opened a terminal. I couldn't get Claude to make one WooCommerce product. Today I've shipped MEGA, a SaaS with Printify and Printful wired in, and my TaiwanMerch store runs itself: 300 AI-designed products, 9,171 search clicks and 10 orders in the last 30 days, $0 in ads. No code. No degree. About 50 hours to cross the line. Here's what changed, what you actually need (a harness, a VPS, a master prompt, permissions, a scheduler, skills), and why your attention span matters more than your technical background. Terminal forward.
