Hey everyone! I'm getting ready to launch Reality Try, a Virtual Try-On app for Shopify.
The crazy part? I don't have a traditional backend engineering background. I essentially "vibe coded" the entire backend logic and AI API integration using GitHub Copilot, and set it up to scale on GCP.
It was a wild process of bridging the gap between my product vision and the actual execution using AI as my "lead developer."
Has anyone else here successfully built and launched a complex app relying mostly on Copilot or Cursor? What were the biggest roadblocks you hit when moving from prototype to production? Would love to hear your experiences!
Shoppers constantly hesitate: "Will this actually look good on me?" Reality Try solves this. We are a Shopify app that lets customers instantly visualize how clothes will look on their own bodies using AI. Unlike standard tools that make garments look stiff or pasted-on, we focus on realistic drape and flow. Give your buyers ultimate confidence, boost conversion rates, and reduce return rates with a seamless online fitting room.
