Hey Product Hunt I m excited to share Cursor Critter, a little Chrome extension that turned into a joyful side-project and now something I can t stop using.

The idea

Tiny animated characters that follow your cursor around the screen. Zero productivity. Maximum joy.

Hey PH fam

Built something fun: a Chrome extension that drops a little animated companion on your screen.

Folks, I've been glued to this screen for weeks now, tweaking my browser extension so prices on any site get a sneaky popup tag right next to them turning bucks into "How Many Work Hours?" No more fumbling manual inputs; that was fun for five minutes but a total buzzkill in real life.

The ride? Nonstop hard-coding headaches wrestling site quirks till my eyes crossed, celebrating tiny "it works!" flashes amid the crashes. Sharing it? Social media felt like a ghost town at first, posts into the void. But hey, last month we hit 2.5K page views and a few installs with actual "this clicked for me" vibes. Fuel for the fire.

v1.2's almost here fingers crossed it sparks the big wave of users and installs I've been dreaming of. For v1.3, what ya got? More languages? Tax tweaks? Extra currencies? Your ideas keep this rolling. What's one thing you'd kill for in a shopping tool? Spill.

Hey Product Hunt, I'm Michael.

After a long spell of searching, I finally found a way to combine my passions for coffee, tech, and travel while tackling a real problem in a massive market.

I'm a solo founder building something I wish had existed years ago.

Hey Product Hunt fam

I just built something that every founder struggles with finding the perfect name for their startup.

It s called NameStrom AI

The @v0 by Vercel team recently dug into industry trends to publish the first State of Vibe Coding report.

My key takeaways:

1. Everyone can build: 63% of vibe coding users are non-developers, generating UIs (44%), full-stack apps (20%), and personal software (11%).

2. Adoption is everywhere, with significant adoption rates in APAC (40.7%), Europe (18.1%), North America (13.9%), and LATAM (13.8%).

3. 92% of US developers use AI coding tools every day

4. 30% of new code at @Google is generated by AI

5. 25% of @Y Combinator startups rely on AI-generated code

6. Rapid expansion has a cost. Vibe coding apps keep hitting vulnerabilities: exposing secrets, access misconfigurations, hardcoded credentials.

7. The future: going mainstream or hitting its sweet spot in working MVPs, the vibe coding trend is here to stay, and it's happening now.
