Building a custom dashboard for my detailing business seemed impossible until I found this tool. For someone who’d rather be under a hood than behind a keyboard, the no-code setup and excellent prompt understanding made it a breeze. I managed good and fast prototyping for a system that tracks my billing and receipts without the usual technical headaches.

The Supabase and Stripe integration are fantastic for handling customer reviews and payments securely. While the GitHub integration felt a bit "pro" for my experience level, the user-friendly interface kept the frontend development simple. It’s an impressive MVP builder for turning a side hustle into a streamlined operation.

What needs improvement

The tool is a lifesaver, but for a guy like me with limited website knowledge, the GitHub integration felt a little intimidating at first glance. I didn't end up needing to touch it, but the interface could maybe 'hide' those more technical developer features unless you actually go looking for them. Also, while the billing integration works great, having a few more 'out of the box' receipt templates tailored specifically for service-based businesses would save me an extra step in the prompting process.

vs Alternatives

Honestly? I looked at the learning curve versus the payoff. I’ve tried those 'easy' website builders before, but they always felt like toys when I tried to do something specific, like syncing my receipts. I needed something that felt like a real tool, not a hobbyist kit. I also considered security. Since I’m handling customer info and billing through Stripe and Supabase, I needed to know the plumbing was solid. Biela made the 'scary' backend stuff feel like I was just filling out a form, which saved me a ton of stress.
