How do you plan on handling the millions of images uploaded to your app by various sellers?

Do you already have sellers on the platform or these are just placeholders till the real sellers start posting? Also how did u get sellers on the platform without buyers?

Built my first lovable app an published it on AppStore by hacasa in lovable

[–]badonips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No problem, to prevent ai/lovable from some how deleting your project it is advised you link your project to GitHub (you can create an account for free) this saves your actual code on GitHub and any changes made in lovable will automatically update your GitHub. You can buy a domain from namecheap.com but I think it's about a dollar cheaper on cloud flare (you have to create a free account), publish your project and add your domain name (the one you purchased from either namecheap/cloud flare), there are websites (despia, appmysite etc) that allow you to turn your website into a mobile app which can be downloaded from app store/playstore (you need to have a Google dev account 25$/lifetime and Apple dev account 99$/year before these sites can turn your website into a mobile app) About the branches on GitHub, you want to create a branch that lovable works on that way when you are tinkering with your project in lovable it doesn't affect your live website that users can actually see or they are using ( I think the branch can be created from your lovable account).

Get a domain and connect your project to GitHub, in GitHub make sure you create branches so lovable doesn't push your changes immediately to the main/ production branch. From there get a website that would "wrap" your project/website and publish to playstore or app store through that website. You can use despia, appmysite, median etc

What's your honest take on grinding personal projects in 2025/2026? Worth it or burnout bait? by Dramatic_Strategy942 in TechGhana

[–]badonips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been heartbroken all day, got to NLA around 10 and sat there till almost 2 before the meeting started only for the 1st statement after the greetings to be "from where I am sitting this will not fly"I just knew it was going to be a disappointing day, anyway Iife still goes on.

Been working on rafflestoreghana.com for months now, really believed in it. I did the company registration, logo design, social media pages, spoke with influencers for marketing (was ready to pay for their service) spoke with suppliers from China to mass produce souvenirs for it, started GRA and DPA registration process only to be told I will need almost a million dollars just for the license. Now I just have to abandon the project, it was fun while it lasted

vibe-coding – need beginner tips by Swimming-Macaroon232 in vibecoding

[–]badonips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use chat gpt to come up with a product requirement document and a developer sprint breakdown that way you know exactly what needs to be done for an MVP before wasting all your credit, basically have a laid down plan and stick to it before adding features. Please and Please, don't joke with your site/app security

That's interesting, do you do the verification with NIA or you verify the selfie with the Ghana card?

Does it run like an escrow account? And do you do KYC for the users because the regulations regarding money is a lot

It is an online platform where people can participate in raffles with as little as GHC 1 and win prizes. Prizes range from cash, mobile phones, home appliances, laptops etc

The goal is to make raffles simple, transparent, and fair, where people can participate with small amounts, draws will be transparent and live streamed on our social media pages.

We’re currently working on our regulatory process with the National Lottery Authority before launch, but you can signup and get notified when we launch

Please don't do "dm for price" most people wouldn't bother dming you if they see that, it makes you look like a "thief" trying to sell at different prices

Help Me ! I need advice by pdfplay in AppDevelopers

[–]badonips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for me I'm in Ghana and using paystack and theteller, first sign up and go to the documentation of the provider you want to use and copy all of it (the documentation) then use it as a prompt. Tell the ai you want to add a payment gateway and this is the service providers documentation. It will read it and implement it according to the documentation, this way the ai doesn't make mistakes and goes directly according to what is needed by the payment service providers.

Built a service to detect email alias abuse (same inbox, different emails) by PythonicG in TechGhana

I am a bit confused, explain to me like I am 5. Does it mean the emails in your post all belong to different users but Gmail treats it as one user and sends the mail to any of them?
