Do you still write code “from scratch” or mostly remix and adapt now?

I’ve noticed that my workflow has changed completely over the last year. I rarely start a new project with a blank file anymore. Instead, I pick a template, reuse snippets, or let an AI helper suggest the structure and then I just vibe my way through the build. It’s faster, but sometimes I miss the old “blank screen energy,” when every line felt handcrafted. I’m curious how others here approach...

What makes a note-taking app actually stick for users?

I’ve been thinking a lot about productivity apps — especially simple note + reminder tools. There are thousands of them, yet most people still jump between apps constantly (me included before building my first one). So I’m curious: What makes a note-taking/reminder app actually become part of your daily life? Is it: ✨ Super clean/simple UI? 🔔 Better reminder logic? 🌈 Personalization &...

What’s Your Vibe Coding Stack in 2025?

AI dev tools are evolving crazy fast , every few weeks there’s a new “must-try” for vibe coders. Some people are building full products with @ChatGPT by OpenAI and @Replit , others swear by @Cursor and @Claude by Anthropic , and a few are mixing @Lovable + @v0 by Vercel + @bolt.new to ship apps in record time. I’ve been refining my own vibe stack lately, trying to find that sweet spot between...

Why do most reminder apps fail to actually remind us?

I’ve been testing a lot of reminder apps, and weirdly, most don’t seem to really get my attention when I need them to. Do you think the problem is bad notification design, or is it that we’ve just learned to ignore alerts? How do you make sure a digital reminder actually changes your behavior?

🎨 Is minimalism in app design still a good UX principle in 2025?

Over the past few years, minimalism became the standard for clean and modern UI design — neutral colors, lots of white space, and simple layouts. But lately, I’ve started wondering… are we reaching a point where everything looks the same? When every app follows the same flat, pastel aesthetic, does “minimal” still mean useful and clear — or just safe and predictable? I’ve seen users respond...

<p>💬 What’s harder: building the product or building the audience?</p>

As indie developers or small creators, we often spend months perfecting our product — the UI, the features, the performance — but once we launch, reality hits: nobody knows it exists. Lately, I’ve been thinking about how “building” and “getting discovered” feel like two completely different skill sets. One is technical and creative — we can control the code. The other depends on visibility,...
