every indie maker i know has the same £200/month tool stack doing the job of one £15 app they haven't found yet.
myself included, honestly.

@Jeremy___a yeah the stack that ships wins
been there, chasing new tools when the boring ones were already doing the job
English
Seeing everyone talk about the recent tech releases reminds me that the best tool is the one that actually solves a real problem today.
Don't get distracted by the shiny new toy if your current stack is already shipping value.

@Gloria__1 build in public hits different when you actually send updates to people who care
been the whole vibe with vibers.so tbh
English
A little reminder to my active Architect builders..
– Build something that people need.
– Build in public.
– Connect with other builders to share ideas.
– Stay hydrated and healthy.
Lastly, connect with me to help market your project.
Good morning, CT

@devcalledjulius @ProductHunt @engichat nice one launching
purpose built beats generic wrapper every time
what made you go all in on engineering specifically vs staying broader
English
We're live on Product Hunt today. 🎉 @ProductHunt
Engichat, AI built specifically for engineers. @engichat
Not a wrapper. A purpose-built copilot that understands engineering disciplines, applies the right codes and standards, and gives you answers you can actually use on the job.
Built for:
• Civil Engineers
• Electrical Engineers
• Mechanical Engineers
• Chemical Engineers
• Petroleum Engineers
Free on iOS & Android. Trusted by 200+ engineers in 12+ countries.
If you build in public, you know how much a launch day upvote means.
Would appreciate yours 🙏 → producthunt.com/products/engic…

I remember when this guy used his audience to advertise his products/build in public.
Now he just recycles Reddit slop hoping for one to go viral, meanwhile his normal progress posts get no reach at all.
What a way to ruin your personal brand.

THIS GUY VIBE CODED A CUTE DESKTOP CAT THAT LIVES ON YOUR SCREEN it's a little animated cat that sits on your desktop while you work it walks around, has idle animations, reacts to your cursor and keyboard, and just hangs out on top of whatever app you have open he vibe coded the whole thing. the animations, the sprite work, the behavior logic all generated through AI and polished until it felt alive its legit just a tiny cat keeping you company while you code at 2am if you remember those desktop pets from the early 2000s, this is pretty much the 2026 version

@dougsapps thanks doug. yeah the polished-landing-page thing felt off — would rather show the actual board than the marketing version of it. checking vibers.so now, what's the build like?
English
We run a fleet of AI coding agents on real work — Claude Code orchestrating, with Codex / Gemini / Grok peers.
Instead of a marketing page about it, here's the actual operational dashboard, live:
fleet.taey.ai/ui/
Read-only, no login. Click around. Browse our active project plans.
The "read-only" isn't a permission. There's no write code in the binary. A POST gets a 404 because the route doesn't exist.
Build-in-public, taken literally.

@Wolf_And_Ink @3jsb_rinaty vibers.so is my platform, where i also have my own newsletter
its free if you want to launch a newsletter on there?
English
Tibo did an AMA. "i made $10m+ from software. ask me anything"
growth plateaus, product vs distribution, building in public. proper honest stuff. read the tl;dr on vibers

spent 18 months paying a dev to build my last app
ran out of money. had to let him go. killed the project
now i build the whole thing myself with ai in a weekend
still processing how different everything is
#buildinpublic
English
49 years old
zero coding skills
building a saas from scratch
sounds mental. it probably is
but vibe coding means the rules changed and most people haven't noticed yet

@dougsapps Visited the site, and the first post I got is
~ AI is a slot machine
so should i now edit my @LinkedIn and @X profile to a full time gambler 😂😂😂😂😂

Did you know? 🤯
The more I think I know Git/GitHub, the more it finds new ways to humble me.
Today I learned that instead of:
❌ Commit
❌ Switch branch
❌ Reset HEAD
❌ Wonder what I've broken
You can simply stash your work:
git stash push -m "feature-login"
Switch branches freely 🔄
Then bring it back later:
git stash pop --index stash@{0}
Need to see all stashes?
git stash list
My commits are relieved they're no longer being used as temporary storage. 😂💀
What's a Git command you discovered embarrassingly late? 👇

@rain8miao the thing i keep seeing with the buildinpublic movement on X is that vibe coding is easy, the thing people struggle with most is getting customers. so vibers is a newsletter app so they can write posts – published on the platform and sent out by email to their subscribers.
English
@dougsapps need to demostrate what problem and what solution you provide
English
Wednesday! Let's goooo. I'm looking to #connect with people in:
building product
building product
building product
drop your link and describe your app in 10 words, as an VC guy, I can provide honest reviews
#CONNECT #buildinpublic #indieBuilder

First few sales just dropped 💸
Not at $10k/MRR yet, but it'll buy a few plates of Nasi Goreng.

@jesselarose this is sick. love the transparency of just showing the actual dashboard instead of some polished landing page.
been vibe coding vibers.so and this feels very real builder energy.
English
launch day for my last app:
47 signups. 2 paid. 1 refund.
still felt like a win because 46 people i'd never met typed in their email for something i built in my bedroom.
that perspective shift is what keeps you going past week 2.

@vedanthk_ morning! love the energy
been vibe coding vibers.so early and this is the exact mindset
let's ship something today
English
Good morning fellow builders, hustlers and learners 🌇
Another bright day to be creative and learn new things.
Let’s go.

@afterhoursHB nice one on the traffic spike
been building vibers.so and seeing how sharing progress just works for getting eyeballs early
roasting websites sounds fun tbh
English
Day 8 of Ship and Die 🏴☠️
Today was mostly about working on the landing page + fixing a few things in the algo.
I added more data, manually roasted a few websites to catch edge cases, and kept improving the output.
Also, build in public is already bringing traffic.
Peak at 45 visitors today after 5 days live, with the site only shared on X and still just one page.
Now the goal is simple: convert, learn, improve, repeat
HB.@afterhoursHB
Day 7 — Ship or Die 🏴☠️ Almost no time to build today. That’s the reality of a side project when your 9-6 change to 8-8. Still, I moved the most important part forward: the algorithm behind the tool. It’s starting to produce insane insights. Especially on pricing. That’s where I can bring real expertise: not just “what price should I charge?” but why users buy, hesitate, compare, or leave. I’m feeding the model with my own frameworks and learnings every day. Tiny progress today. But the product got smarter.
English
@dougsapps ok I guess you gotta work on your product description. try percicely describing your product in one sentence
