@hiarun02 Loving the vibe

Claude Code 4.7 is insane. i know literally NOTHING about coding. ZERO. and i just built 3 fully functioning web apps in 30 minutes. http://localhost:3000/ http://localhost:8000/ http://localhost:5000/ check it out.

@_devHelen Long story

So, what made you choose tech? 👀

@diaa_tr3des @HelloSwagkong Yhh.... I can relate

@HelloSwagkong Honestly, explains why I’m mad most times 😭😭

Heyy 😭 I’m Halimah Oyindamola, Diaa on X. 400 level student nurse in a Nigerian uni, just trying to survive school and life at the same time 🥲. I trade on the side, create content, and yeah… I fool around on this app a lot. I like to play, gist, and interact with people that actually have sense and good vibes. If you’re annoying, please rest 😭 I’m 19 and I’m open to meeting people in my niche; traders, creators, or just normal humans that are fun to talk to. If you’re seeing this, we might as well be mutuals 🤝🏽

@htkzone Day 3 sounds familiar Auth is always the first rabbit hole. I'm building HVT (open-source auth with project-scoped runtime + built-in RBAC) exactly because of this so you don't spend days gluing

Day 3 of prompting my way to $1M. Thought of an idea today to start my first app/saas building journey. Started with a mobile app first. Quickly realised you need to do whole bunch of things :- - Auth - Database - Thinking app interface/themes - Building the app itself - Edge functions for api calls - Onboarding - Paywalls - App assets - icons & scrrenshots - Filling apple and google platforms which looks so bloated with so much to fill Hopefully will be able to get all done in 2-3 days and then submit for review. 🤞🏻

@AkhilKompally @Alexand63390764 You could also use a digital ocean droplet too depending on your need but the trade off is you handle all your configs migrations e.t.c

@Alexand63390764 But the render has the cold start issue in free tier the present application is deployed in the railway and I have choosen deployment via docker

What are you building this weekend? Implemented auth for my latest project nexscreen.vercel.app I know I am slow has hell need to be more consistent Also need a platform to host my current backend beacuse the current deployed backend is in the trial version gonna end soon🥲

@AkhilKompally Built auth over the weekend too always trickier than expected What did you end up using? I'm the one building HVT (open-source project-scoped auth with built-in RBAC). Been iterating on it to avoid the usual bolt-on headaches later. How's yours going so far?

@themishra4402 It's safe to say Elon is the most likely to be

If these four are building an ai startup together.... who should be the CEO ?

@PremChauraisya Definitely python

In which programming language you can code without AI?

@codingmenace @kristijan_kralj Agreed. Most startups are paying for Auth0's enterprise headroom they'll never use. Purpose-built auth that you actually own is a better default. hvts.app

@kristijan_kralj Auth0 is not necessary and is also expensive especially for startups. I'm also not a fan of SignalR. There's better options out there.

All you need to launch a real product: 1. Auth → [ASP .NET Core Identity, Auth0, Keycloak] 2. Database → [EF Core + SQL Server/PostgreSQL] 3. Payments → [Stripe, PayPal] 4. Security → [FluentValidation, OWASP] 5. Frontend → [Next.js + Shadcn/UI] 6. Backend → [ASP .NET Core Web API] 7. Notifications → [SendGrid, SignalR] 8. Observability → [Application Insights, Serilog, OpenTelemetry] Solid foundations turn ideas into empires.

@ValerianWaters @ritu_twts Supabase auth is great until you need audit logs, RBAC, or webhook events and have to bolt things together. HVT sits right between the two purpose-built auth, self-hostable, no MAU pricing. hvts.app

@ritu_twts Supabase is the path of least resistance for me right now. Auth0 feels like overkill for most projects and the pricing jump is still scary.

Be honest as a dev, which authentication provider do you prefer?

@EconExpt @stevenaranjo1 @Austen Look forward to getting some feedback Thank you

@mark__odera @stevenaranjo1 @Austen will take a look for sure

What is the SAAS companies are least likely to build internally? Honestly it's probably video conferencing (Zoom, Google Meet), CRM (Salesforce/Hubspot) and messaging (Google Workspace/Slack). Anything else I'm missing?

@stevenaranjo1 @EconExpt @Austen Same moment a lot of devs hit. We built HVT out of that frustration self-hostable, open-source, no MAU taxes. Worth a look: hvts.app

@EconExpt @Austen I thought the same thing til I got the bill from Auth0. I’d say this is one I’d be excited to replace

@Surendar__05 include stdio.h

Be honest devs,which is the programming language you learnt once but never touched again?

@perkmaybe Hello

Bro to Bro: build your x account Just say “hello” and gain 700 mutuals here.

I’m looking for a feedback loop. Try it out, check the code, or see how it fits your next project: ​App: hvts.app Docs: docs.hvts.app ​Would love your thoughts on the app or the flow. Let’s build. 🫡

Big milestone: HVT is now fully open-source. ​I’ve just opened up the entire stack backend, frontend, and the TypeScript SDK. It’s built to be a clean, fast auth infrastructure.

@Sarabjeet___ 8gb

How much RAM is enough for Web Dev? • 8 GB • 16 GB • 32 GB • 48 GB • 64 GB • 128 GB +

@dev_maims @alishteinn Really ??

@alishteinn Yeah

Which programming language would you recommend for someone who is new to web development?

@manojdotdev Html

in which language you wrote your first "hello world"?
