You have an MVP. No audience. No budget. What's your first acquisition channel?

@DanielSmidstrup Love this approach. I'm doing something similar — non-tech founder though, using Claude as PM and Cursor as dev. Launched OpFanta 6 weeks ago, first paying customer last week. Different market (Italian fantasy football) but same spirit. Following your journey.

25. Solo dev. 0 followers. Starting from scratch. Goal: €5-10k MRR in 12 months building micro-SaaS products with AI. No team. No VC. Just shipping and seeing what sticks. First product is live in 14 days or it's dead. Posting everything, the wins, the flops, the numbers.

@markkko22 That makes total sense! Supabase + Stripe is a solid combo. Kostra actually wraps those together with RBAC, multi-tenancy, and an admin panel already wired in, so when complexity grows, you're not starting from scratch. Keep building!

Non-tech founder here. Built my first SaaS in 6 weeks with Claude as PM + Cursor as dev. Got my first paying customer. Looking for someone doing the same: non-tech, building with AI, wants to ship real products. Target: €2K MRR. DM me. #buildinpublic #vibecoding #solofounder

@AayanBizz Nice to meet you! 16 and already shipping — that's impressive. First paying customer feels unreal when it happens. Let's build!

@Kostra_io Appreciate it! The foundation is actually working well for now — Supabase handles auth and Stripe handles billing. But I'll keep Kostra in mind when things get more complex

@markkko22 6 weeks to first customer is solid! if you're ever redoing the foundation stuff (auth, billing, etc.) check out kostra.io, it handles all that so non-technical founders can just focus on product and customers

@yabsssai The “zero background” part is real though.I’ve been fascinated by tech for years but never studied or worked in the field.I describe what I want to Claude and Cursor,they handle the implementation.Supabase’s dashboard made the database side approachable for me.

@markkko22 that claim of building your entire stack with zero CS background is intimidating - i've always struggled with the database setup, but using supabase for your project sounds interesting, what specifically drew you to it?
