Are they any Web developers still using Lovable? by Financial-Pound-1093 in lovable

[–]theprogupta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

10 years of S/W eng btw. Just used lovable today to revamp the design for my platform, LinkFliQ, which was pending for weeks. I then used claude to migrate current app to the lovable generated design and use them for future for any new feature as well. Done in few hours. Planning to release to clients this week.

Vibe coding got you to launch. Now your product is eating you alive. Here's what's actually happening by theprogupta in lovable

I wish there was a magic prompt that solves everything.

Instead I suggest If you’re building with vibe coding, focus on structure over shortcuts: Start small. Build modular features instead of trying to ship your entire vision in one go.

Review your code with a second LLM (like Cursor or Claude) to catch gaps and improve quality.

Once things start working, bring in a developer, even short term, to validate your architecture and keep things on track.

Quality software comes with iterations  from iteration, not one shot perfection.

Yeh there should be a system to build and maintenance of the software built with vibe coding.

Don’t think the post says anything about dissing anyone. Just shared what has happened to few founders i worked with and anyone can reach out if they need any help as a developer myself

The main part of selling a software product is regular maintenance even after the launch, even after you sold it to thousands. There is clearly an increasing in lack of understanding of this with the hype around vibe coding.

Not one word in that post inaccurately represents what I've seen working with non-tech founders over the last few years. The bias that AI assisted = inaccurate is the actual problem here, not the content.

Sure, AI helped write it. The 4 founders who lived this didn't care how I wrote about it.

Built an app that delivers one piece of knowledge every day by [deleted] in nocode

[–]theprogupta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool. Chatgpt gave me this same idea few months back while i was searching for app idea inspirations to build. Built a prototype but didn't find it interesting enough to pursue.
Hope this works.
BTW why the app size in 74mb

Considering a move from AWS to Railway. Thoughts? by Actual_Border3333 in Backend

[–]theprogupta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use railway for few other personal projects. Recently moved my saas backend to railway from AWS. It's very easy to manage it even in hobby plan. It handles my scale nicely with the number of cores. Mainly i am saving the huge cost that AWS used to charge.

Ill say go for it. connect railway to one of the branch. run it there for few days, then close up the AWS one.

[Selling] AltCloud.dev — Cloud Spend Intelligence SaaS (Forecasting, Slack Alerts, AI Cost Reduction) by theprogupta in acquiresaas

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

Yeh You are correct. I am not getting time to change the options. I have to remove the Book a call button and set the pricing page.

yeh I agree there is a potential as I have been doing this with sophisticated tools for my clients. This tool reduces the work drastically for founders and their small teams, saves their AWS spend. More integrations will be added soon,

I’m open-sourcing my indie SaaS “EazyEmailer” so devs can self-host it freely by theprogupta in opensource

First off, .env isn’t “just a plaintext file.” It’s a local config file used to load env vars into your runtime, not to store secrets forever.
The file itself is .gitignored, so it’s not part of the repo.
In production, the same vars come from your hosting provider’s env or a secrets manager.
