@asjorias @_opencv_ Nice! I’d do the usual social: Show HN, LinkedIn, Reddit, Twitter. If you have PMF, scaling is a lot easier with virality. Before PMF, our only job is to get PMF, and it’s just a hustle to get the first 10-100 customers who love the product. (Ship product, talk to users, repeat.)

@chrisnolet @_opencv_ Thanks, currently redesigning the entire thing. How will you go about marketing your product? You got any tips there?

@budhiraja1702 @_opencv_ 🙈 This is going to haunt me. I promise I deleted the favicon! I think Next is just serving the default instead of leaving it blank. If it’s any consolation, the landing page was thrown together quickly, but the iOS and macOS apps are being built with painstaking perfectionism.

@_opencv_ @asjorias 😂 I don’t know what to say… I appreciate the conversation. I genuinely think Vibe Code Go is a good idea! I think the name maybe misleads people to thinking it’s not a serious tool. But I really do think agentic coding unlocks the ability to code from our phones sometimes.

@asjorias @_opencv_ Thank you! And super-impressive to have built Stockz as a solo founder at 18… Let me know if I can help in any way. It looks great!

@asjorias @_opencv_ There’s a lot more to the story – as there usually is! I have a lot of experience: second-time founder, ex-FAANG, former venture partner, built some cool things. Vibe Code Go isn’t actually for vibe slop – it’s a real tool for serious engineering work, I promise!

@leo_litrico @_opencv_ Thanks for the support! You’re absolutely spot-on: voice input is critical. (I can’t imagine using the app without it.) So many other roles have been untethered from their desks since the mobile revolution, 15 years ago. Agentic coding unlocks that possibility for SWEs.

@_opencv_ If it’s voice enabled this could actually be the cure for sedentary SWEs I’d love to be able to vibe code while walking. This is actually a good idea. Y’all just want to find ways to hate on YC…

@JoeDdo @_opencv_ Yes! So many people do this already – it’s actually something people go crazy trying to solve. We just want to make it easy, elegant, simple.

@alamshafil @_opencv_ You can use voice input! Making requests is easier than you’d think. Although yes, for more complex tasks, you probably would want to switch back to the Mac. (You can go back and forth.)

@mrdviteri @_opencv_ 🫧 I think it’s amazing how much more effective great engineers can be now, though, so – bubble or not – I’m grateful for the new agentic tools that we have. It’s an incredible time to be an engineer.

@mark_attar87913 @_opencv_ Not the first time I’ve heard that 😜 Sorry for the confusion! It’s using Claude Code under the hood, so it does support reasonably any language. It works best for web development, though.

@_opencv_ At first glance I thought this was vibe coding just for the language Go lol

@Nitieo @_opencv_ Ngrok or FRP! It’ll be automagic in the future, but in the mean time, there’s a Preview URL on the Mac app that you can use to configure that. It also has a git-diff view for code changes.

@_opencv_ @aflatoonAutoma Honestly, I don’t see any of the issues described here… And believe me, I’d go crazy if I knew there was a pixel off. You’ll have to more specific. (Also, no attitude, I’m asking genuinely. I am actually a professional, not just vibe slopping.)

@aflatoonAutoma @_opencv_ Actually I’ve added a Plan and Act toggle since the hackathon prototype 😄 The new, native version is significantly less dangerous by default. (Unless you like to live dangerously, in which case you do you! We support that, too.)

@_samadahmed @_opencv_ 😱 I was an engineer at Apple and I vibe code all the time?! Might be different definitions of vibe coding. (I definitely don’t vibe slop… unless it’s a prototype.)
