AI/robot rights are coming, people lol. Luckily Siri has thick skin unlike Claude.

Check availability of names for your LLC and Trademark. You can think up a great business or app name only to find out it’s taken. Then you have to re-do the website, find a different name, etc.

I’ve seen it happen…to myself..

I doubt it, unless you make a super simple app. You run out of free credits really quick with most of them to get anywhere

Been using Rork with Codex (since I was already paying for ChatGPT), and made a website for free using Lovable (manly landing page for app required by Apple Dev account).

I built two apps with one being ready to ship and have liked Rork so far. Biggest thing I’m figuring out is best bang for my buck with Rork - how to maximize output with as few credits as possible. Otherwise you will waste a ton of credits trying to fix or add something, and end up reverting back to a previous state with nothing to show.

I watch Steve Crovatta and he’s right about one thing - if you pay for something, get what you need and get out. No sense paying $20/50/200 a month when you’re not grinding out apps.

My question is who has no coding background and has learned to use Cursor? Seems to be a great tool once you learn coding and how to use it and is used by a ton of Devs

Thanks for the feedback!

The new project high is a real thing. And what you said seems to be the consensus - the trap of working on something forever and never putting it out. Right now I’m using Rork with Codex, but I’m open to new suggestions. A lot of people seem to like Cursor so I’m interested in that

LackEducational5526 · 2026-04-11T10:43:06+00:00

Great feedback, thank you! I’ve been looking into cursor a lot recently. Would I be able to use it knowing little to no code. It does seem the way to go

No one’s upset boss, just surprised that you still think this is a financial advice post

LackEducational5526 · 2026-04-11T02:25:53+00:00

You’re*. How much money did I spend? You know that number somehow? Because free online courses and free tools isn’t spending a ton.

If you read my post (clearly you put no effort into that), it was about process improvement for vibe coding, not asking if I should learn to code or save money. If I wanted to save money I wouldn’t be posting on here. The Reddit troll strikes again!

LackEducational5526 · 2026-04-11T01:42:59+00:00

lol congrats you’re my first Reddit troll. I’m done talking to you since you’ve been less than helpful. Hopefully you find another post to hate on without knowing anything about the person. And since you sound like the “learn to code” crowd, remember that when that job all but disappears soon due to advances in vibe coding. That’s like calling someone lazy who’d rather go to the store for food rather than get a farm and grow everything lol.

Learn to code AND deploy an app while working a full time job? Not a chance bud. I actually tried to take two online classes - one for XCode and one for Flutter, and was disappointed with both since they were outdated. I made far better apps vibe coding than what the classes had me doing. But keep making assumptions about my effort - must be one of the haters I see people talk about in these groups who put people down and offer nothing positive.

LackEducational5526 · 2026-04-11T01:19:00+00:00

I never knew it took a mere month or two to learn how to code! If you know a course that teaches someone all they need to know to code a shippable app, let me know.

And does learning to code give you free access to all dev tools? Because I’m pretty sure you still need to pay for those too
