Stellify IDE: Developer feedback desperately needed!
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Matt, creator of Stellify. I've spent 6 years building this as a side project and I could really do with some feedback.
WHY I BUILT IT:
Every Laravel project starts with the same 30-minute setup: Docker, Composer, .env files, database config, etc. Then every team member repeats it. The there's further development, maintenance and testing and all the difficulties that come with that!
I wanted the unified experience of Xcode, but for web development, a solid, unified development environment that takes the pain away from web development!
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT:
Instead of text files, Stellify stores code as structured data. This enables:
- Rename a method → routes, frontend calls, docs all update automatically
- Multiple devs working on the same "file" without conflicts
- Searchable, queryable code
But it still outputs standard Laravel files, so no lock-in.
WHAT I'D LOVE FEEDBACK ON:
- Is the value prop clear?
- What would make you actually switch from your current setup?
- What features are missing?
