Hey PH Community! I'm Andreas, CEO & co-founder of toddle - a next-gen visual web development platform that rivals custom code. We built toddle because we wondered why a text editor is the best tool to build visual web apps. Coders have long had the best development tools and are far superior to people who build visually. We wanted to build a platform that would level the playing field. You can try the tool at toddle.dev and join us tomorrow when we officially launch on Product Hunt! But before then, let's chat about what programmers need to be efficient and why it s missing in past nocode tools or what I had for breakfast. I m here to answer any and all of your questions; fire away!
Every launch I see is about agents, orchestration, reasoning chains, autonomous workflows, then I open my own chat history w/ claude and it s all about chores (task support), and almost nothing regards agentic workflows. it is mostly small text chores I could describe in one sentence.
I don t think that s a failure of imagination on my part, and I don t think I m unusual. People (including I) use HUUGE models to do irrelevant tasks, that's like asking stephen hawking to sort out your monthly expenses' PDF.
I don't know about you, but I feel like I've been working non-stop for years now, and I don't know how I'm able to do it. And it's often because I include activities in my daily life that make my work more enjoyable or break up the monotony.
For example:
I exercise every day (and listen to video casts about tech, business, and marketing in the background)
In all 22 years of running my business, I ve never raised prices on my existing customers.
My philosophy has always been to price a little below the competition, make the product better, and the customers will come to you. That's how I've made it this long.
Normally, for me, it means taking the cost of not trying hard enough on your customers. And if you're selling the product, there's no need to increase the price.
