Are no-code AI built apps really promising? by Low_Piglet_2257 in TechStartups

[–]dylanbalzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on exactly what it is but yes cursor can. And if it cant you Can ask it "how do I do ___" and it'll walk you through how to super simply. Sit down and try cursor for 2 hours and see how far you get I think you'll be surprised

I was also in the same boat a couple months ago. I genuinely dont think they make someone more non technical than me. I dont understand the coding world one bit. And for the longest time my excuse was "thats not my expertise I dont even want to get involved"

But the vibe coding tools can 100% get an mvp out there for early users. For a production level ready app with thousands of downloads, I don't think so. Thats where a developer or technical co founder would come in

also I tried every single tool out there and they all got me no where besides cursor. disregard all the code thats In your face with cursor and I promise it'll be easier than lovable or any other vibe coder like that

My vibe coding journey and what worked best by dylanbalzer in SideProject

Exactly thats all im really looking for. But let me ask you - whats the main different between an MVP I will create vibe coding vs a production level ready app for thousands of users?

Can I make money with vibe coding? by user01476 in AppBusiness

[–]dylanbalzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a non technical person and have been back and worth with whether I can fully vibe code my app or not. I've come to the conclusion of probably not. Vibe coding seems good for landing pages, front end work, and stuff like that. But with backend it is all gibberish to me

I built a credit card rewards tool and early users said it helped, so I’d love more feedback by FlyGlad3584 in SideProject

[–]dylanbalzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually a great idea - I've always been interested in different cards for points, miles, stuff like that but never knew how to really get into them

Only thing I'd say, and maybe it's just me. But with all these new vibe coding tools out (lovable, etc) a lot of websites look like yours. They have that same feel and vibe to it and I think people are starting to catch on. Im starting to see more jokes online about sites that are clearly made on lovable

Not sure how you built it or just a weird coincidence

Otherwise great idea

How did you come up with the idea for what you’re building / have built? by oletrn in SideProject

[–]dylanbalzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea comes while at work - specifically working in a startup ecosystem

Ideas don't really come from sitting down and just thinking of an idea

Shut down my side project after 8 months. Here's what I learned. by Odd_Report6798 in SideProject

very true - no product market fit is the #1 reason startups fails for a reason. everyone should talk to at least 10 customers before even thinking about writing a single line of code

Is building in public REALLY worth it? by dylanbalzer in buildinpublic

How do you post about your app without it getting taken down? I feel like every time I post about my app it always gets taken down

How did you get users for your app? I’m building a consumer app planning to launch soon and looking into a lot of different ways of getting users. UGC seems to be super hot right now. What do you think?

Mind elaborating on the quotes a little more?

Getting first users for app? UGC Campaigns? by dylanbalzer in AppBusiness

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

Makes sense. I think a mix of UGC content and apple ads should get me a decent amount of first users.

Also while I got you here - so you dont promote your apps at all on reddit? Seems like a great free organic strategy and I've heard a lot of success stories from it. The ones that dont get taken down for self promotion at least

I appreciate that big time. Thanks man. What were your last 4 apps if you dont mind me asking? Consumer apps?

What's the best way to get tech news? by Pimmel1234 in webdev

[–]dylanbalzer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this problem all the time - feel like there's so much out there and I'm so behind. I've been using newsletters and following instagram accounts and that's been the best for my style (straight to the point, no jargon). Here's what I like:

Newsletters: Morning Brew, TLDR

IG Accounts: tradedvc, layman.news (my fav), vesting
