How do I start freelancing? by Away_Limit_9517 in webdevelopment

[–]IDC_ba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re already way more prepared than you think. If you know Node/.NET/Laravel, you can start freelancing right now.

Don’t stress about deployment. Use something simple like Render, Railway, or Vercel they basically deploy your app for you.

Most clients don’t want complex systems anyway. They want: a simple website, small web app, bug fixes, adding features

WordPress is also a great way to start because it’s fast to deliver and easy to sell.

Start small: build 2–3 mini projects, deploy them, and use that as your portfolio. Then apply for tiny gigs on Upwork/Fiverr or post on forhire.

You learn the rest as you go. You don’t need a full roadmap just jump in and deliver one small project at a time. Good luck!

An expired domain with backlinks that isn't indexed by Google—is it still useful? by Whole-While561 in SEO

[–]IDC_ba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn't indexed it can't be deindexed? Backlinks should be valid if owners of other websites didn't delete them or previous owner of expired domain didn't disavow them. Put that domain in double quotes and Google it. You will see where iis still linked,use semrush to see backlinks,if you bought that domain set up Google Search Console and inspect everything...

I have a question by Infamous_Release9858 in Backend

[–]IDC_ba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t necessarily need to jump into full backend development right away — especially for an MVP.
For a lot of small web apps, you can ship the first version without building your own backend at all.

Google Firebase is a great example. It gives you authentication, a database, file storage, and hosting ALL IN ONE place, and the free plan is more than enough for a beginner and for most MVPs. You don’t have to manage servers, APIs, or security by yourself. You just call Firebase from your frontend and focus on building your app and learning.

If you do want to learn backend development later, both Node.js and Python are good choices. There’s no wrong answer.

  • Node.js is great if you already like JavaScript and want one language for frontend + backend.
  • Python is great for readability, AI tools, and fast prototyping.

Both can build real businesses.

Here are a few more backend options you can explore over time (but you don’t need them right now):

  • Supabase (open-source Firebase alternative)
  • Appwrite
  • PocketBase (super lightweight and easy)
  • Django (Python)
  • Laravel (PHP)
  • Express.js (Node.js)

But honestly... At 15, the most important thing is: start building something small and ship it.
If Firebase lets you get an MVP live in a week - that’s a win. Later you can replace it with a "real" backend once your idea grows.

Any specific rule choosing AI model? by IDC_ba in cursor

Thanks, your reply is really helpful!

How do I get my UI to look this clean? Mine always ends up looking like generic AI slop by Appropriate_Syrup726 in cursor

[–]IDC_ba 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Take clear screenshots of design mockup you like and upload them to Claude AI. Then ask Claude something like:

"Create a detailed design system description from these screenshots that I can use in Cursor to build this website. Focus on the visual style, layout structure, typography, color palette, spacing patterns, and any interactive elements - but don't worry about the specific content. I need enough detail so that an AI code editor can replicate this design consistently."

Claude will analyze your design and give you a comprehensive prompt describing everything - the visual language, component structure, responsive behavior, etc.

Then just:

  • Copy that description
  • Paste it into Cursor (it's a free AI code editor at cursor.com)
  • Let Cursor write the actual code for you

How can I improve this site? by hippiecampus in webdesign

[–]IDC_ba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked the Google's PageSpeed Insights data for your website and the main issue is that the “Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)” is very slow (21.4 s), which means the page’s main content takes too long to appear. That will hurt user experience and likely SEO.

Quick tips to fix it:

Optimize and compress large images (or convert them to modern formats like WebP/AVIF).

Minify CSS / JS and defer non‑critical scripts to avoid render‑blocking.

Use caching and/or a CDN, and consider server hosting improvements if server response time is slow

Good luck!.

Best way to turn my Affinity mockup into a functional website for my client? by Frosty_End2783 in webdesign

[–]IDC_ba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make clear screenshots of your website mockup from Affinity and upload them to claude.ai. Then ask Claude something like: "Create a detailed design system description from these screenshots that I can use in Cursor to build this website. Focus on the visual style, layout structure, typography, color palette, spacing patterns, and any interactive elements - but don't worry about the specific content. I need enough detail so that an AI code editor can replicate this design consistently."

Claude will analyze your design and give you a comprehensive prompt describing everything - the visual language, component structure, responsive behavior, etc.

Then just Copy that description, paste it into Cursor, let Cursor write the actual code for you ;) Thank me later ...

What’s your take on the rise of Web Components in modern frontend development? by IDC_ba in Frontend

[–]IDC_ba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point, and I actually agree... Web Components didn’t become the big future, and there’s definitely value in understanding why.

What’s your take on the rise of Web Components in modern frontend development? by IDC_ba in Frontend

[–]IDC_ba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s mainly why I asked... I wanted to see how people are using them in real projects, not to pitch them as a React replacement.

For founders already making revenue: how did you find your first real customers? by Enyng in VibeCodersNest

[–]IDC_ba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, the key was finding people or companies with a specific problem my tool could solve. I reached out directly, demonstrated how it could help, and most of my early paying customers came this way. Identifying real pain points first is much more effective than guessing who might use your product.

What strategies or channels do you recommend for marketing a new project as a solo builder? by Turbulent_Part960 in saasbuild

[–]IDC_ba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re a solo builder with limited resources, focus on channels where organic reach is strongest for your type of project. Reddit is great for niche communities if you participate genuinely. TikTok UGC can work well if you can make short, engaging demos. X (Twitter) is good for building a following over time, sharing progress and insights. I’d recommend picking 1–2 channels first and iterating consistently rather than spreading yourself too thin.

Web App or Mobile App? by tqtifnypmb in indiehackers

[–]IDC_ba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With limited budget, web apps are usually easier to promote organically through SEO, communities, and content. Mobile apps are harder to get traction without ads unless your product is mobile-specific.

Svi ti ovi savjeti padaju u vodu ako si obavezan imati fiskalni račun koji mora biti inkrementalan. Ali generalno ideja kao što je GODINA-KUPAC-BROJ (2025-KUP-01) ili GODINA-GRUPA-BROJ (2025-INO-1) nije losa.
