Starting a “big lessons” thread👇 I’ll keep a log of some of the big things that I’ve learned as an indie hacker in the first few months of learning code, ai, building, shipping, tools, you name it. If you’re new to the #indiehacker game like me, share some of your lessons. Let’s learn!

@LexnLin This is what I’m talking about Using this today👏

Okay, haters saying this is a shitpost and fake. Well no, I don't do these kind of posts 😭 HERES THE PROMPT Use the image-to-code web skill. github.com/Leonxlnx/taste… (for image gen) Create a landing page using the materials I provide. Please read everything completely. Generate 8 images total. Each image should represent one section of the website, so there should be 8 sections in total. The website should be ultra-clean, modern, and at the level of these references: landonorris.com mindmarket.com shopify.com/editions/winte… oryzo.ai floema.com/en mistral.ai Please generate the images based on the reference images I provide from these websites. Then, your task is to recreate the generated images in code. Extract all individual elements from the generated images and regenerate them with image generation so they can be used as separate assets. Then use those assets to build the final website with extremely smooth animations. The site can be about anything. Just make it creative, animated, aesthetic, and really cool. Please make the website awesome and check everything carefully. ----- YES just like that. Inspo + image2code + Fable is CRAZY

@shadcn This is so smart Budgeting out the expensive tokens for the expensive work Then using the cheaper tokens for the execution👏

You have Claude Fable for only a few days. Here's how to make the most of it. Introducing /improve: use your most capable model to audit your codebase and write plans for cheaper models to execute later. Studies your code, figures out bugs, perf, tech debt, missing tests, what to build and writes plans any agent can run.

@jakkvega_ Love this one

fable helped stress testing my render engine... .. in terminal .. on a vm (audio 🔊 for vibes)

@jakkvega_ It's captivating I'll stare at it as I send fable off to code my empire

This is insanely impressive what fable is capable of

@BratDotAI Paradoxically we're doing both all the time

At this point, are we overestimating AI or underestimating what a single good developer can do with it? 🤔

@uday_devops Fable 5 has been my goto... all of one day

As a developer, which AI do you use for the frontend?

When's the last time you wrote any code yourself?

@theo Had it incorporate liquid glass for me on a site I'm building. Best llm to do it so far

How are you guys feeling about Fable so far?

@jakkvega_ I could stare at this for hours

gave it my render stack and it delivered some interesting demos. impressive is an understatement 🥲 (audio 🔊 for vibes)

@adxtyahq Hermes agent from @NousResearch does this easily

why hasn't anyone built a multi-agent system where you give it a startup idea and it automatically: - researches competitors - finds pricing - checks funding - identifies market gaps - creates positioning - suggests a launch strategy basically doing 3-4 hours of founder research from a single prompt.

@codevsdev Currently accepting it and burning tokens.

Writing good prompts is now a dev skill. The faster you accept it, the faster you level up.

@pmitu Both?

Don't build for fun. Build for money.

@dev_maims It's so true

@RooBuilds We prefer nights

Real 😂....

@TTrimoreau yes yes yes yes

What’s the biggest advantage AI has given founders? -speed -lower costs -automation -accessibility

@neerajjj6785 @knowRowan cursor

@knowRowan codex

Which do you think provides the best value for vibe coders? - $20 claude - $20 cursor - $20 codex

@caps_raunak hot take

AI was supposed to make every developer a 10x engineer. instead it made 10x engineers invisible and made average developers look competent just long enough to get hired. now teams are full of people who can generate code but cannot read it. cannot debug it. cannot explain a single decision in their own pull request. we didn't get 10x developers. we got 10x confidence with 0.1x understanding.

@trikcode Yeah they've really outdone themselves

the amount of trust and aura anthropic has built with the dev community over the last month is actually insane
