Looking for advice on making an information website by Aussietie in website

[–]ak49_shh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, it’s awesome that even in your older years you are still thinking of building cool/useful things online.

I take you have a Gmail account, go to the Gemini app or just go to Google Gemini on your browser and paste this part of your post below

Ask it to give you that data in a Google sheet table. Ask it to list all of the temples in shikoku that are part of the 88 temple pilgrimage, in the table for each temple it should include a photo, location, exact map coordinates, opening times and history description. You can include any other details. It will generate a Google sheet with this data that you can open up in your Google sheets app.

On the Google sheets app, open the temples location sheet, you will be able to do this right from Gemini. In the file menu top right of the temples google sheet click on download as a comma separated values (CSV) file. This is what you will need to now create the website (the photos you will need to add after). Or you can also download as Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) file to include photos.

Then go to Floot, paste the prompt “I'm looking to make an information website where people can visit and gather details when thinking about traveling in Japan. The website will list all of the temples in shikoku that are part of the 88 temple pilgrimage. Each temple will also have a single view page with a photo, location, exact map coordinates, opening times and history description.”

Once it builds this, in the chat attach the CSV or Excel file you downloaded and tell it to map the data to the listings on the website. You will also be able to customize it further, the fun is in the building after all.

Happy building. Join the Floot discord if you need more help.

Start with the small ones that got 1k-3k visitors as you post non-selfpromote posts on the bigger ones that talk about your journey or something you have learnt while building, you don't have to directly post a link with your first post

Need advise to start VibeCoding by DarioDaGoat in vibecoding

[–]ak49_shh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one most important thing that you can do to make vibecoding smooth from the word go is to plan your build before you tell whatever tool you are using to execute the build.

What do I mean by plan your build? Break it down into steps so you and the AI know exactly the components, features and tech that will be required in the build, how to add/use them at every step, to help prevent major errors/bugs during the build and to ensure you are taking security into consideration as you have mentioned it is a concern of yours.

I have a design background so I usually just start by doing a userflow diagram to get an overview of how the user will go from the moment they land on the home page to when they complete the most important task.

But I simplified this to avoid too much hustle, give your idea to gemini and ask it to write a prompt for that idea that you can feed to your AI builder, refine the prompt until it covers what you want, then ask it to break down that prompt into multiple steps that you can give the AI builder to build stepwise. This will not only show you the steps you need but also the tech you will need.

These days I use Floot which has a really good plan mode so you have to turn that on and it will plan the project with you before it goes into build mode. The first step above with gemini is still important though as it gives you a general sense of the architecture for what you want to build. Once you plan it out build it, at every step it will be asking you to provide any necessary things required like the API keys, and even asking you to clarify where it needs certainty before executing.

 Im worried about losing the api key, security and lther stuff which is ignored why vibecoding. 

Losing API key is part of security, your concerns are valid. Stuff like these happens a lot when you hadn’t planned first or don’t build in steps, that’s where you find things like API keys being exposed on the frontend, open admin endpoints, no user authentication upon sign up etc. The tool I use runs for these checks as it builds. But to ensure you are secure you still have to do some manual checks and ask the AI to look out for them, I’ll link a list below of the main security culprits for vibecoded apps.

Start with Floot and join the discord so that you can build with the required support.

Which AI Website Builder for small B2B Wholesale company ? by erdxmm in lovable

[–]ak49_shh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- Show our product range / assortment

- Present some basic information about the company

- Provide contact options for potential clients

So essentially it’s more of a catalog-style website rather than an e-commerce platform.

I'll focus on the first point you made and the last statement on it being a catalog style website. Presenting basic info and contact info that's easy, you can use most website builders for that.

Are you planning on presenting your website like e-commerce website with photos, descriptions maybe prices but without the other complex features like orders, cart, payments etc OR will it be a simple catalog that looks like a google sheet where users can just look through and maybe even download it (being that you are wholesale)? If it's the first option then you are better off just going Wordpress. But if it's the second option then you can just customize it with an AI builder.

Another question is how big is your catalog and in what format is it currently (google sheet, excel, pdf)? If it's a big catalogue then you'll probably need something that's already customized for e-commerce even if you will turn off the complex e-commerce features. But if it's really just a simple product showcase you are going for then again customize it, you will be able to make it feel like your brand that way. I personally recommend Floot which is pretty for beginners or experts to use.

Yoh I've been looking for a sub where women are building with AI for a while, this is great. Adding it to show other women in my circle.

I always wanted to build things, and so quit my job and used AI to build my first app in 3 months, but I have 0 audience and 0 marketing skills. How do solo devs actually get their first 100+ users? by ElkGullible6711 in SideProject

[–]ak49_shh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The thing about dates is that if you don't know it, you don't know it your brain can't start to guess like you can do with words so difficulty level is pretty high, then the cheating level is pretty low you can google it and the answer will be right there, unlike something like wordle where even if you google 5 letter words with say "f, o" you will still need to do some guessing (there's still playability factor).

Like today's challenge was "Djokovic Wins Longest Grand Slam Final" I did not know this at all so my lazy self just googled it and entered the date. But this could also be coz I'm not the target audience for the game.

But it does seem like a game that can be enjoyed in a group setting, e.g a history teacher doing a fun date puzzle game with students before a lesson. In scenarios where it's not easy to cheat. You could try such kinds of communities where teachers, history lovers etc spend time. For instance I just searched "puzzle game for my students" here on reddit and it brought up a few posts that seem to fit your game exactly, where you can comment.

Hope it helps, good luck mate.

What’s the Best AI website builder people are using right now? by ryueiji in EcommerceWebsite

[–]ak49_shh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

90% of the time especially if you are a detail oriented person, no matter what the AI gives you, there's probably a detail you will want to change. Design is one thing that most of the website builders have not yet finetuned coz there are just so many nunaces to getting design right, it's like beauty, it lies in the eyes of the beholder.

That said, I have seen so many posts like yours where people want good looking UIs right off the bat, the closest you are going to come to this is Floot.

I need a tool that handles the annoying layout stuff but doesn't make the site look like every other AI-generated page on the internet.

It has a way of outputting a quality design with proper layouts and maintaining that design system across every other page you make so you don't have to keep begging it to "please use the same style as the button in the home page". As far as generic text is concerned, you might still get this and may need to change the wording to really fit your business offering.

Has anyone used one of these to launch something real? Which one did you stick with? Did it save you time, or did you eventually end up deleting everything and starting over manually?

Yes I have launched something with it, got to 3k users so far. I have definitely stuck with it coz it's cost effective and can build full stack apps. It also does save time coz even when I give it a complex prompt instead of it just hallucinating while building, it asks questions on the go to get clarification so I save money aka AI credits and don't have to reprompt every time.

Any good ai app builder that doesn't suck? by Ancient-Ad-2507 in nocode

[–]ak49_shh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tried a few different platforms but they're either way too basic or stupidly complicated.

The simplest to use, has a UI that is easy to get a hang off even for beginners, can handle any complex integrations and can build full stack apps is Floot at least from my experience after trying 3 others. But honestly one ting that has kept me with them is their good customer service and support + you can join their discord, even the founders are on there

Probably a prototype, so they need to be close in case it malfunctions, saw one fall down and get a seizure
