Building tools for focus & balance

About

Hey, I’m Raghav Garg. I run Sumo Solutions, where I build tools to make life a little less noisy and a lot more focused. The first thing I made is ShieldX — an app that helps block distractions, manage screen time, and keep phones under control. Honestly, I built it for myself first, because I was wasting way too much time scrolling. Turns out, others needed it too. My bigger goal is simple: create products that actually help people — whether that’s with focus, digital wellbeing, or whatever problem comes next. Not chasing “the next big app,” just building stuff that’s useful. Always happy to swap ideas, hear what’s worked (or not) for you, and learn from the community. 🚀

Are "real" engineers/developers (secretly) hating on non-technical vibecoders?

I made my first chrome extension using solely Chatgpt. I wanted to see if it was really possible for a non-technical person like me. I was really proud of myself, it inspired me to want to build more! But when I tried to add more features to it, I think the code got too bloated and messy and it just blew up so I just continue to use the extension for the basic need I have to save and organize notes I make on products that are interesting to me without all the bells and whistles I would have wanted. I wasn t trying to make money on it, just something to prove I could do it, and I got to feel what it was like to launch something on Product Hunt - yay!

But I ve also seen alot of posts/comments from more technical folks around the web hating on non technical people for believing that you can go from 0-1 and that these new tools are best to speed up work for technical people who already know how to code, not for newbies who end up with something that works by copying and pasting crappy code spit out by LLMs of their choice.
