I am a product designer, not a coder, and so "lowcode" code editors leave me lost. It simply takes too long to ask Claude to step-by-step me through anything I want to do. I have projects in the works in Lovable.dev and Medo.dev, Anything and Dazl - but yet to get things to work after migrating them to Vercel breakl out of the co-branding that these app-builders like to sneak in (notice the rainbow you see here and there on Lovable-built sites, even whn they use their own domain...?) Gemini's suggestions:AI code generation is prone to the "90% Problem," where the final 10% of polish requires significant manual intervention.
Bolt.new: Users report that while blazing fast (app skeleton in 20s), it often "shits the bed" when projects get complex, leading to massive token consumption to fix errors .
Lovable: Praised for UI aesthetics, but its 7-message memory limit leads to "recency bias," causing the AI to get "drunk" on different approaches during long debugging sessions .
Tempo Labs: While it provides excellent planning features (PRDs and diagrams), some users have reported that its export to GitHub is unreliable, providing only "fragments of code" rather than a full app .
Blink.new: Emerging as a smoother alternative for full-stack builds, handling authentication and backend integrations with fewer breaks than Bolt .
Selection (Phase 1): Use Dyad.sh or Anything if you want the most stable backend/auth foundation .
Generation (Phase 2): Build your MVP on the Pro tier for 1 month (~$19-$25). Use Discussion Mode to plan changes without burning credits .
Sync & Export (Phase 3): Sync your project to a private GitHub repository immediately .
Deployment (Phase 4): Connect the repo to Cloudflare Pages for free, unlimited bandwidth or Coolify on a $5 VPS for total control .
Refinement (Phase 5): Use Cursor (locally) for further edits. It provides a full IDE environment with better project context for $20/month, allowing you to maintain your "clean codebase" without builder overhead .I then asked, about a cheap solution starting with Baidu's Medo.dev - because Medo gives us many credits to start, 100 more/day free, 20 more for 20 clicks on other's projects... So you can build a lot, download, but then have to sort out login and other backend problems. Possible, but takes some doing.Gemini's response:
In Supabase Dashboard: Go to Authentication > URL Configuration. Change the "Site URL" from http://localhost:3000 to your actual production domain (e.g., https://your-app.com).
In Vercel Dashboard: Go to Settings > Environment Variables. Add a new variable called NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL and set its value to your domain. This tells the backend where to send users when they click the email link.
In Cursor: If the error persists, open your project in Cursor and ask the AI: "Search for all instances of 'localhost:3000' in the authentication logic and replace them with the environment variable for the site URL.".But what about you? What is your process if you are no-code building and shipping?

Hey everyone, been a Product Hunt visitor for years but never signed up, so I thought I'd start by sharing some recent learnings that hopefully other builders will find useful.
For context, we're building FanBase Copilot, an AI assistant for content creators that learns their voice and context over time. The memory layer is critical. It's what makes the AI actually useful after the first conversation.

Everyone went crazy in 2025 after AI Memory. There are atleast a dozen launches in the space on product hunt from june-december, but the problem seems far from solved. Are you using any of the current memory systems (platform specific or interoperable ones, doesn't matter). What do you still hate in these systems? is it context repetition? is it hallucinations? is it inability to move between systems with your memory intact? Want to wrap up the year knowing what people actually need!

This was a deliberate experiment inspired by my CTO. I wanted to test a simple question:Can a Product Manager ship a real website end-to-end today without handoffs?
Here s the stack:
@Figma structure, hierarchy, & visual components
@Adobe Illustrator brand consistency & visual components
@ChatGPT by OpenAI positioning, copy angles, objections
@Lovable iterate layouts before committing
@Cursor turn ideas into real UI fast

Building my app with AI tools, zero coding background. The magic part - I can ship features in hours. The scary part - I have no idea if the code is actually good.
Right now my "QA process" is:
- Does it work when I tap around?
- Did anything break that worked before?

Our team pushes code constantly - multiple deploys per hour some days. The problem? Nobody can keep up with what's changing. You check the repo in the morning, grab coffee, come back and suddenly there are 47 new commits.
Good luck understanding what actually matters or how it affects your work. We built Doculearn to solve this with automated flashcards. Here's how it works:

Reddit has been my main growth channel for the past 6 months and I've been consistently getting 100+ high-intent visitors every week.
Here's the exact system you can copy:
See this?
Step 150 of debugging why a payment does not get saved to a database. Two days on this one bug. And there are plenty more. If you can build somehing that will do the back-and-forth, the "now try this and tell if it... no? Okay, le's do this thn, and this, and that..." Do what Claude Opus 4.5 is tellling me to do, the tens of hours, to get to the solution. Automate that and you have a winer - becuase there are 100K full-stack devs who will do all this more effienctly themselves, yes. but there are 10M non-developers who love what they built, but are getting killed in the debugging, the last 5%.

AI and no-code tools are evolving insanely fast right now. Every few weeks there s a new tool that changes how quickly you can go from idea to product.
I ve been experimenting a lot with different vibe coding platforms lately, trying to find the right balance between speed, control, and flexibility. What s surprised me most is how far you can go today without a traditional engineering setup.
For context, I recently built @Sendrise , an all-in-one cold email outreach platform, using a no-code + AI stack. I used @Lovable for building the product flows and UI, combined with AI tools for writing, automation, and logic. What started as an MVP quickly turned into a fully working product with lead management, campaigns, CRM, and analytics.

I have been cranking out apps for the past few years and loving it. Then one morning a week or 2 ago I got a little ambitious and decided to build a desktop email client because outlook was so-so and superhuman was ridiculously expensive.
Is this a big mistake? Am I wasting my time ?

I've been vibe coding( @Lovable , @v0 by Vercel ) for a couple of months now & it's such an incredible feeling. What once required specialized skills now happens through simple descriptions.
Breaking free from dependency on designers & engineers for mocks/prototypes has been especially empowering. Great to see this creative autonomy that has fundamentally changed how people build.
What an incredible future we are creating for kids who can create software from sentences.
