my saas was built with Cursor, zero hand written code

AI is no longer just an assistant, it’s also the builder

Now, you can continue to whine about it or start building.

P.S. Yes, people pay for it

Same. It's the new version in my case (the one live right now), so the business was already running with an old school app but yeah, 100%, you can build commercial level products just by asking your way to cursor.

Knowing software helps a lot though, with big projects, at least enough know-how to select the parts you pass when asking



5/11
@leojr94_
yea, I feel is not that hard for me since I have been around devs for quite some time, I also know my way around figma so that helped

i still cant code tho, but I have a clear idea of how things work

@tech_nurgaliyev
good news

@leojr94_
i don't know if it's news, but some people are definitely resisting

@sevalla_hosting
I can't imagine coding a fully functional SaaS with payments, webhooks, and background jobs without knowing how to code.

I assume you’re a coder and know how to fix things.



9/11
@leojr94_
I'm not a coder and I can build a build fully functional SaaS with payments, webhooks, db, and auth in less than 24 hours.

without using a boilerplate

@FiloPietra
my app was built with cursor too 🤫

Be open about it. There is nothing wrong with it

guys, i'm under attack

ever since I started to share how I built my SaaS using Cursor

random thing are happening, maxed out usage on api keys, people bypassing the subscription, creating random shyt on db

as you know, I'm not technical so this is taking me longer that usual to figure out

for now, I will stop sharing what I do publicly on X

there are just some weird ppl out there

@leojr94_
7:30 AM, not sleep until is all fixed

- rolled all api keys and moved them to environment variables
- implemented authentication to api endpoints

Learning security from first principles.

Good job & Keep going.

This is how you become technical and you are doing it!! One step at a time!

Don’t let the haters & hackers get you down.

VIBE CODING is a plot from BIG CYBERSEC to CREATE MORE CUSTOMERS instead of CREATING CURES

@daniel_nguyenx
Good opportunity to learn about security I think. Unfortunately there will always be bad actors, whether you do it in public or not.



10/12
@leojr94_
True, Im taking it as a learning experience

Most people have been helpful tho

If you're sharing something on X, then be prepared for everything.

Let AI build buggy ass software for you thinking shyt is sweet and then complain when shyt goes left. AI cannot replace proper knowledge of security practices to prevent hacks :mjlol:

Maybe I’m being naive, but does excluding back employees mean google was doing right by them?
I took it to mean that if they included black workers it would include a lot more people and cause them to pay a lot more people and all the people in the lawsuit threw black folks under the bus and said fukk us.

Well shouldn’t the black folks still be able to sue separately
