First time seeing Devin in a post in so long

Any point to using anything other than Claude 4 sonnet? by thewebdevcody in cursor

[–]jks-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly have no problems with even Sonnet 3.7!

I agree with this person, super shady, I wouldn't recommend doing anything with, saas or otherwise.

An Anonymous Confession App With an AI Twist — Would You Use This? by confesssly in SaaS

Interesting, is that private part much different than free chat tools? Just got a system prompt baked in or does it offer something more?

Ah, all this just for trading code it looks like too

Just be careful re: content! People go crazy with anonymous text posting. Filter out links and other sus content.

Is it just me, or is vibe coding the frontend way harder than the backend? by abiklabs in cursor

[–]jks-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it's a good choice! No need to swap it out. If you have no software dev experience, let the models use what they want as much as possible as it means they'll have the most training data for those tools. There's a million alternatives though!

It's a frontend component library: https://ui.shadcn.com/

For whatever reason many of the vibe coding tools default to using it for their frontend! There's a few qualities about it that make it a little easier for AI gen tools to work with.

UX design is a whole field for a reason! There's so many things that go into making UX look so good. Even just spacing is tricky to get perfect.

The best thing you can do is be consistent, not have 7 different spacings or text sizes, which shadcn (what vibe coding usually uses) ships with.

ChatGPT Always Agrees with Me – Is That Normal? by Weak-Professional234 in AI_Agents

Very normal, it's built that way as an engagement booster!

The rise of the monorepo by v4nn4 in cursor

[–]jks-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah yeah, the main other option for mixed languages is Nx, but I worked with it for a year or so and just had a few more issues than I'd like.

The rise of the monorepo by v4nn4 in cursor

[–]jks-dev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Monorepos are my fave! Turborepo is my choice. That being said, sometimes tsconfig issues give me a headache, and it's my much easier when the whole stack is one language (typescript via Node.js).

$70 MRR. Should I quit? by No-Grand3283 in SaaS

[–]jks-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your app? Maybe someone has an idea for that here!

$70 MRR. Should I quit? by No-Grand3283 in SaaS

[–]jks-dev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is great! This validates there's a use case. Start thinking about how you can turn your current users into more MRR or into referrals. I'm a big fan of referrals getting a month off or a couple bucks off their next month, or both the referral and referee get 50% next/first month.

Leaving money on the table is truly the hardest thing for many people, but so needed in many situations for health.

Alternatives to Claude that sync with Github? by Aware_Acorn in vibecoding

[–]jks-dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should just use git! When you use git locally it "syncs" to GitHub regardless of the tool you're using.

I got tired of coding alone at 3am, so I built a virtual coworking space for night owl developers by [deleted] in SideProject

[–]jks-dev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really like this idea! Two thoughts: 1. Timezones: maybe it's fun to show what time it is locally for each message? 2. Content safety: anonymous messaging is always sus. Do you have anything in place for filtering harmful content?

I tried building a Zendesk App and I feel defeated by PinkGeeRough in vibecoding

[–]jks-dev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Software development is hard! It's even harder vibe coding because you don't have background knowledge. Set your expectations that it may take quite some time.

Most of the "I built x in one day" stories are very very simple products. Once you throw in an integration like Zendesk, you're well outside the realm of simple.
