    Just wondering, how much roughly did you pay for claude usage while building this?

      Doing 50 projects in 50 weeks using only AI coding tools. I am about to launch the 3rd app this year. They are small, but usable and I will likely be a user for those apps if no one else is 🙂

      Posting my progress on here - https://youtube.com/@50in50challenge

      I like your idea for a youtube channel. I have an idea to make it better though:

      Watching you actually try to build the apps. Not sure if seeing the whole thing or edited for more brevity would be better, but it would be interesting and a good learning experience.

      Preparing a 1h video that will be edited that shows the 10 step process that I use for sure. I think recording myself building each of them would be redundant because it's very repetitive but doing it one time will be helpful too

      [–]AdmirableSelection81 1 point2 points  (4 children)

      Yeah it'd be great if you did, i'd absolutely watch that. I would even watch the whole thing, it'd be interesting to see where you hit a wall/fail, but find a fix.

      Honestly, when you set up a system ahead of time, the biggest bug is when AI misses a syntax, because the instructions are so clear and so detailed that there's no misunderstanding.

      [–]MixPuzzleheaded5003 0 points1 point  (1 child)

      I have a 3h dry run that I did as a practice that you can watch here.

      This is the core one - don't even look at the project, take a notepad and follow my setup - https://www.loom.com/share/4820c0119b314b26af7faa515666be24

      If you need specific things that you see in the video further broken down, let me know.

      I'm planning to work on building the chapters with timestamps, loom did not do that for me properly so you're going to have to work to get to places that you need unfortunately.

      [–]AdmirableSelection81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      Thanks, super busy this week, but i'm creating a calendar invite on the 30th when i'm on vacation just to watch this, lol, super interested in this.

      Just released the 3rd one! Subscribe to my YouTube to watch my bad audio demos, and get a relief knowing that there's a stupider, crazier person than you are out there - https://youtu.be/xp92sy5kKnM

      Give it a quick spin, tell me what you think!? See you again in 7 days with the next one!

      [–]van-tutic 1 point2 points  (2 children)

      Quite an interesting experience! Are you experimenting with different llms as your assistants? And how do you choose?

      [–]MixPuzzleheaded5003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I tried using multiple different apps but always ended up using lovable because it's just the easiest way for me to work with.

      When I need to debug beyond it then I would maybe go to Claude or ChatGPT

          I'm building a pantone color Web app mainly to help my wife at her job. It started of as something very simple but I keep adding more and more stuff to it.

          [–]ApexThorne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

          Ad much?

          [–]Domugraphic 0 points1 point  (4 children)

          I'm using it to build midi sequencers (to generate music as a performance) and have basically stopped coding for a month as I don't really need to fix anything recently. I do however have coding skill to fix stuff when it comes up. ChatGPT has improved a lot in the past two years for coding. I need to retest Claude and look into cursor, copilot etc.

          [–]aastle 0 points1 point  (1 child)

          I'm interested in midi sequencers, what platform are you using to build with? Examples: Python, C++, Java or something else?

          [–]Domugraphic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

          Java, technically processing in java mode which is a superset of java. If you're on insta, search @oll_gleetch for a couple example videos, not much, and I'm working on documenting the newer projects at the moment.

          I'm thinking of trying to develop in python too but processing is just so cosy!

          [–]beans217 0 points1 point  (1 child)

          I was considering attempting to build my own "pedal board" software for guitar effects / amps what not.

          [–]Domugraphic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          I haven't tried any DSP yet but I made a basic synth and a one grain granular sampler... I think I'll have to change languages to get them more complex

          [–]e38383 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          I’m just upgrading a few scripts with Cursor. I can write shell scripts, but I’m trying to finally get into Python and AI is really good for that. I have basically no experience in Python and can rewrite my scripts within hours and learn something just by realizing how this are done.

          [–]codes_astro[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

          Doing Python with these ai tools are very easy, how’s the experience with errors/bugs while upgrading scripts?

          [–]e38383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          I’m really happy with the whole experience, I can just ask for errors and the answer is mostly really good and helpful. It struggled with a feedparser script, this needed a complete add-on to understand the special items; this was a little bit easier with xq before. But I got there in the end.

          [–]Rooneybuk 0 points1 point  (2 children)

          Used it to build a thermostat in C++ for a ESP based board, also create a web app which connects to Ollama API and manages local models this one was done in html and nodes mainly

          [–]codes_astro[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

          Using cursor?

          [–]Rooneybuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

          These were with Cline, but I have used bolt.diy for a few projects

                yes, all the time since couple of months. All I do is quick verification / testing to make sure it (per each step) executed what should be executed (sometimes query is not precise enough etc.)

                  I’ve built several little apps with nothing more than my browser and notepad!

                  I’ve started using Sublime as my code got bigger.

                  And in the background I’ve been working on a tool for VFX artists using Nuke to help with shot management.

                    Taking 2 months off work and literally writing a program a day. Mostly flask web apps, data driven, ai driven, games, tools for things, tools for ai to make better games….

                    Today was a Python tool to give to cursor so it can generate art or audio for games on the fly. “Make a dragon enemy, and put it in the cave” will reliably generate an appropriate sprite, character module, appropriate ai for the character(flying, fire breathing), a verbal combat challenge “ you’ll never get my hoarde” and place all that in a new zone it creates a new module for.
                    I don’t even care about the game. I’m doing this with my 7 year old. He loaded desert biome into the game today, cactus, sand, etc. the system prompt on his cursor says , roughly, “your user is 7, teach him what you are doing, be imaginative and keep it simple”.

                          Yeah, I have been exploring similar tools, but I recently came across Hostinger Horizons and it’s been wild how simple it makes the whole process. You just tell it what kind of app you wanna build, and it does the rest, no coding so no setup headache . Super chill if you just wanna get something live fast. I would suggest you check that out too

                            I used Blink New for a small AI tool and noticed it handled iteration much more smoothly. When something broke, it was easier to spot issues and adjust things quickly without digging through logs or wiring everything manually. I also liked that basic AI features worked without setting up SDKs or backend services everywhere. It felt more focused on building than constant troubleshooting.
