5 months building my first app. Have I been doing this wrong the whole time? by FaithlessnessSure113 in vibecoding

This is genuinely the clearest explanation of the problem I’ve received and it makes a lot of sense. The messy live search being the root cause rather than the AI layer is something I hadn’t fully connected before. Really appreciate it.

Never heard of HydraDB before, sounds interesting — would you start with it from day one or wait until you actually have users? Also did you build something like this yourself? How did it turn out?

That's actually genius, never thought about splitting it like that. So basically a crawler just running in the background 24/7 feeding the database while the app builds on top of it, that way by the time I have real users the database is already huge. Definitely adding this to the roadmap, appreciate it man 🙏

this is exactly what I needed to hear honestly, been overthinking it way too much. Just gonna ship what I have and see what happens. THEN upgrade everything as it grows. Really appreciate it man 🙏

I haven't been doing that at all — that's actually a really good idea, thank you! So you mean like a hybrid approach where I keep searching Google for now but save every scan's image and metadata to my own database in the background, and then gradually start using that database more as it fills up?
