Building a vibecoding mentor-matching platform in public without dev
I'm Vasyl, and three days ago I couldn't code. Well, today nothing changed lol. It would be great to hear some advice, how you guys as low Cursor credits as possible.
Today I'm 82% done with a web app full-stack mentorship platform.
WHAT IS IT: a mentor-mentee matching web app where professionals can find the right guidance and mentees can connect with experienced mentors in their field.
THE TWIST: I'm building this entire thing with zero coding background, using Cursor IDE + Claude AI, and documenting every single day publicly.
WHERE WE'RE AT (Day 3): - Backend: 100% complete (auth, payments, messaging, reviews) - Frontend: 70-100% depending on feature - Dashboards: Fully functional - One blocker: Database setup (2 hours away) - Launch: ~20 hours of focused work
WHY THIS MATTERS: Not trying to sell you on the app yet (it's not even live). But the meta-story is wild - AI just changed what's possible for non-technical founders. The barrier between "I have an idea" and "I shipped a product" collapsed.

FOLLOWING ALONG: Building in public on X (@VasylK23416) and LinkedIn. Every day. The wins, the bugs, the "why doesn't this work" moments. Launch coming next week. Would love your thoughts, feedback, or just follow the chaos. What was your experience learning to build your first product? #buildinpublic #AI #nocode #mentorship
