Hello!! I'm a product designer based in the Bay Area who has always loved dogs. However, I have two angry cats so I must love dogs from afar. I've had the idea for Dog-e-dex for years, but never knew how to bring it to life since I don't have technical chops. I looked into hiring engineers, but wasn't sure how to, until AI came on the scene.
Dog-e-dex is built purely by prompting using Anthropic's Claude. I have learned a lot through this process (I had no idea what a backend really was until now), but think engineering and design jobs are safe for now :). It's still quite challenging to prompt design details and I'm sure the code is a nightmare for someone to review, but it *works*!!! Can you believe it?! I can't!!
I have a bunch of ideas on future features to build, including badges, "shinies", and more! The question is, will I break the app in the pursuit of these new features? Only time will tell.
I'm kind of scared to get roasted or hacked (pls don't hack me I barely know what an API key is) but I think it's amazing what we can do with AI tools now! Try it out and let me know if it falls apart. If it all crashes or I owe a million dollars for Google Vision API calls then, well, there goes my app building career. Thanks ok bye.

Cynthia, this is amazin! huge congratulations for not just dreaming up Dog-e-dex but actually bringing it to life!
This should be spread worldwide – such a unified place for abandoned pets. Such a system or database would be better for anyone. Now people publish things across FB, IG, but it can be kinda ineffective. If people had this app, they could filter e.g. regions, date of saving the pet, etc. – something like a pet management system. :)
This feels like a photo album and memory book dedicated just to dogs. Congrats on your launch!
Congrats @cynthiachen. This will be so much fun to fill up with my 5yo daughter! Playful apps like this are great for the whole family 🐾 ❤️.
