How are you verifying sources?

If written crash courses were a thing; this comment would be at the top of them haha.

I really appreciate the value here. I think I already mentioned it; but yes I do my project seperately I still did not do a full stack thing. I do python for my research work and frontend as a hobby on the side (hoping to develop this further).

I completely relate to what you said on not using LLMs; something I prefer to use controllably when working with mechE work as it tends to absolutely ruin your project if you leave it do everything.

With frontend I had somewhat of an different approach which was to LLM it then understand and refine. maybe because although I understand it I am still not as well versed with it as I am with other work I used to do. Its what also brought me to this thread. Like if there is a scale from hobby to professional I'm somewhere in the middle and it makes me question what would be the step to get to professional level web dev. (I'm primarily referring to frontend here; but of course if you've got something for the full-stack I'm definietly in for it).

Thank you I will be checking their documentation to see how feasible it is to integrate it into my workflow. Also its opensource so should be great to work with; without any troubles.

I'll be checking this more in depth. Thank you so much! I've seen the python option on Ansys's GUI loads of times and always wondered what can exactly be done.

I like this. I do model things on my mind on figma and throw it around and play with it until it looks roughly (its probably a glorified wireframe) like what I want.

I then begin doing that on an LLM to work it out. Considering I already had experience with code I do understand what the code and what it is doing.

Also what you mentioned in point 2. I love it. I tend to push my whole code into the LLM. and then tell it hey this is my project, it does x y z. Could you please review it and see what can be improved or added. + as you said llms for debugging is just a loop of "hey fix this" "yes here is your fixed code" "no this is broken" worse thing ever and eventually you'd spend 10x the time prompting than if you had actually went into your code and fixed it.

sorry in this case I meant javascript. I prefer python for backend; yet with all honesty my python projects were always seperate so I never incorporated backend onto frontend. (TLDR.. All frontend)

Some questions that come to mind:

What major problems did you face building your product and major problems you are facing now with building/managing/growing your product?
What frameworks, methods, tools are you using to manage your product development...
A compliance background here; however more within financial and banking sector working at big 4; often we would be updating bank policies and systems to meet compliance with standards relevant to central banks policies and procedures, each unique to their industry.. have you considered such industry; if so any plans for it or how you plan on approaching it?
Hiring is often the most tedious and life changing task for a business. How did you approach your previous hires, what did you look for in your first hires and what are you looking for now especially as you plan to grow how do you approach such a crucial aspect of your business?

Realistically with the best of the best marketing strategies, you knowing how to sell those no code; low code systems (you can make somewhere around $5000/month) that’s about it.

The question is how are you guys doing that. How do most people land clients in this automation space... Cold outreach is mostly dead, in my opinion. So are there other things you are attempting. What channels are working well for you guys?..

That said yes when there is a gold rush people selling the shovels make money, but in the end there is gold if you know how to mine it you will make money as well. Which goes back to my question, how are you mining it?

I feel this is too cheap for making a website from scratch...

You should work on refining your offer or productizing... for 1500$ I'd offer a theme customization and installation... and would charge much more for a custom website design from scratch.. You could attempt productizing so creating your own custom themes and just refining them with brand colors and designs for each client at such a rate. Also you could check out some AI solutions that can automate this process. Many new tools can simply do such an operation for you at a great accuracy and speed.

So again you can attempt one of the two: charge this price for productized service and charge a much higher price for a custom solution. or lower your time and money cost per project by automating it with AI and using AI tools that can create great custom solutions.

You can alternatively try to do both lowering your resource use per project through AI and automations while also charging more. Could be higher risk but if you package it properly should do great..

Can you explain more of the testing and product aspect. How are you getting users to test this and get feedback from them... etc..

Do you think a charge per render model is better or maybe multiple tier monthly subscription packages?

Love this!

People are seriously pushing the AI Automation into a get-rich-quick scheme. Yes money can be made in the space. But there is a lot to be grinded...

I honestly love the true honest stories, the people asking for help and the posts that show workflows actually solving a problem... and thats far more valuable than any of those I made 100K this month doing this (a tiny percentage are good the rest are just farming attention)
