Woohoo! I am SO EXCITED to see LaunchFast finally launch on Product Hunt today! As your brother, I’ve watched you pour your heart and soul into creating a tool that genuinely makes it easier for startups and creators to get their products off the ground and into the hands of users. From the sleek design to the powerful features, it’s clear that LaunchFast is going to be a game-changer for so many people out there. 🌟 I'm beyond proud of you for bringing this vision to life, and I can't wait to see how LaunchFast helps people launch their dreams into reality! Okay, okay, I might be a little biased because, well, I'm your brother. But seriously, folks — check it out, and you'll see what I'm talking about! 😉 Good luck today! 🎉

I've bought a copy of LaunchFast, and it's great. As an SWE and an entrepreneur, I want to spend time building what matters and setting everything up, trying to understand the best technology for a certain purpose! It's amazing how one command can save me some weeks of work! 💻🚀 Looking forward to building more products faster than ever!

@alexandra_describy Thanks Alexandra, I appreciate your words 🙌😄
Hey congrats on the launch. The terminal script is great and it looks pretty easy to use ! Some things you could improve I think : - No way to accept payment right now (I know it's coming soon but if I build an app I would like to sell my products directly and not wait) - Out of the box the lighthouse report is better with Shipfast (Not sure if it's Next.js vs Remix or some small updates you could make) - Why would I need to setup all this if 99% of the time my apps have minimum to no success ? Real question what are the positive aspects of adding testing, auto deployment and all that to an app that often get no users. - I don't like the UI, not gonna lie, again with Shipfast you can get a clean ui and focused on selling your product. (Even Shipfast could be improve, I'm not a fan of DaisyUI). But I fell like your components could be improved a lot. (Add me on Twitter if you want to discuss a bit that). I would like to point that I like the fact that you're trying to offer an alternative to Shipfast that use a different approach with more control.

@noeschmidt Hey Noé, thank you so much for your feedback! Here's my take. Stripe payments (one-time, recurring, and metered) are coming soon. You can see what's coming on the landing page roadmap. Lighthouse is not a good tool for measuring performance. Well-known fast websites perform badly in tests. I will eventually add best-practice performance profiling to the docs. I can notify you when that's online. >> Why would I need to setup all this if 99% of the time my apps have minimum to no success? Well, if you have that low success rate, take a look at Jobs-to-be-done. Tony Ulwich and Bob Moesta are particularly interesting characters to learn from. They teach us how to look at the market from a problem-space lens, instead of a solution-space lens. I often tell my students and mentees that it's not worth trying to solve a problem we don't yet understand. Tony and Bob are the cure for that. Regarding the technical aspect: there's nothing for you to set up. One of the design principles of LaunchFast is being non-intrusive. Don't want monitoring? It's disabled by default and it won't get in your way. Want to enable it? Just paste your Sentry-DSN into your .env vars. Same with analytics, payments, AI, OAuth, and email. Testing is different: testing is enabled by default. If you don't want to write tests for the new functionality you write, you don't have to. But all built-in functionality is tested. If you'd like to disable the tests for the current functionality, you can comment them out, but except for saving maybe 1 minute during your deployment, I don't see a good reason why one would do this. Regarding the UI, yeah, that's fair. I've done my best, but I see a lot of room for improvement too 😄 I was working on verveui.pro before working on LaunchFast, so the UI will get a massive improvement over time. Thank you! I try to deliver as much non-intrusive control as possible. My goal is simple: to give web developers the power to build beautiful, high-quality, and scalable web apps. My hope is that using LaunchFast makes developers feel a sense of joy and productivity ✨ Thank you for your words my friend!
