About

I'm a developer and indie builder who turns ideas into useful products. I work with React, Next.js, and modern AI tools to build MVPs, SaaS applications, and practical automation workflows. I am new to discovering interesting products. Looking forward to learning from founders, sharing what I build, and exchanging feedback with other makers. Currently exploring AI-powered applications, product development, and building in public. Always happy to connect with people who build, experiment, and share what they learn.

Three Files the Agent Said It Changed and Didn't

I asked Cursor to add input validation to a form handler. It reported editing three files. I checked git diff: two files changed. The third was a no-op.

The agent had described what it planned to do, not what it did. I only caught it because I diff every change now.

When did an AI coding assistant break something silently in production?

Code refactoring tools are amazing until they are too confident. I had an LLM clean up an unused configuration variable across a repository and it assured me every single reference was gone.

Turns out it completely ignored a dynamic string interpolation in an old logging script because it wasn't a direct match.

The app ran fine for a week until that specific error log finally triggered and crashed the background worker. Now I don't trust any automated cleanup without running a strict global search first.

What's the sneakiest bug an AI tool ever slipped past your tests?

<h3>👋 Hi Everyone, Happy to Be Part of This Community!</h3>

Hi everyone! I'm an AIGC designer interested in the intersection of artificial intelligence and visual creativity.

I enjoy experimenting with AI-generated images, videos, and design workflows, exploring how new tools are changing the way we bring ideas to life.

I joined Product Hunt to connect with people who are curious about AI, learn from other makers' experiences, and exchange ideas about the future of design and creativity.

I'm still learning and exploring, and I'm looking forward to discovering what everyone here is working on and sharing perspectives along the way.
