AI and no-code tools are evolving insanely fast right now. Every few weeks there s a new tool that changes how quickly you can go from idea to product.
I ve been experimenting a lot with different vibe coding platforms lately, trying to find the right balance between speed, control, and flexibility. What s surprised me most is how far you can go today without a traditional engineering setup.
For context, I recently built @Sendrise , an all-in-one cold email outreach platform, using a no-code + AI stack. I used @Lovable for building the product flows and UI, combined with AI tools for writing, automation, and logic. What started as an MVP quickly turned into a fully working product with lead management, campaigns, CRM, and analytics.
I m exploring different Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) options for vibe coding projects small but creative builds that start locally and later go live (think quick prototypes, coding agents, or AI-powered hobby apps).
I d love to hear your thoughts on:
how easy is it to debug or simulate the backend locally?
how smooth is it to go from local to hosted?
any gotchas or scale-to-zero tricks to keep costs minimal?
functions, auth, storage, DB branching, edge runtimes, etc.
I just launched AllPub.co and built pretty much the entire thing using Vibecoding with Claude Sonnet 3.5. I'm a software architect with just some basic Python knowledge, so this was my first full web app build. Wanted to share my experience!
This morning I opened my inbox to find an alert from GitGuardian about a leaked key. My first thought: Great, another phishing email. Nearly deleted it on the spot. Then I realized yesterday when I was using Cursor to bulk-update my scripts, I d left the API key in plain text
I've been vibe coding( @Lovable , @v0 by Vercel ) for a couple of months now & it's such an incredible feeling. What once required specialized skills now happens through simple descriptions.
Breaking free from dependency on designers & engineers for mocks/prototypes has been especially empowering. Great to see this creative autonomy that has fundamentally changed how people build.
What an incredible future we are creating for kids who can create software from sentences.
Netflix for AI generated fims, pretty self explanatory
Problem
This week, Google unveiled Veo 3, its latest AI video model capable of generating hyper-realistic videos from text prompts. The line between AI-generated and human-made content is blurring rapidly.
As devs, we all know the struggle with code security scanners:
Switching between IDE and clunky dashboards to check vulnerabilities
Wasting hours sifting through false positives
Getting vulnerability alerts with zero guidance on how to actually fix them
I stumbled on an IDE extension (ZAST Express for VS Code/Cursor) last week that s amazing for my workflow. The Proof of Concept (PoC) feature is what sold me instead of just flagging issues, it gives runnable snippets to validate the problem, plus clear fixes right in my editor. No context switching, no guesswork, and it s free to start.
Are you someone who's built > 10 apps using Lovable, Replit, Mocha, or another vibe coding tool? If so I'm very interested in what is your answer to these 2 questions:
Assume you're the "benevolent dictator" of one of these apps for the day, and can choose to add one thing, and remove one thing:
What's your most desired feature? Thing holding you back the most?
What really annoys you and would you change or remove?
