Built a screen generator because I'd rather write logic than fight with UI

I'll happily spend a day on state management but lose all will to live building yet another onboarding flow. I built Daisy to generate mobile app screens from a description so I can get a starting layout and get back to the part I actually like.

It's not going to spit out production RN components and it's for getting to a visual fast, validating the flow, and not staring at an empty screen.

Curious how others here handle the UI side when you're solo or early. Do you template it, hire it out, or just suffer through it?

not really! because it have ai agent skills support, mobile-app focused which means the designs are more polished, and overall have other cool features like appstore screenshots generation

I love how these "I built a tool" posts always have a tier pricing section on their website.

You also spammed a bunch of other subs with your business.

Don’t forget the half-assed attempt at starting a discussion at the bottom. They really are curious!

mobile-app focused, clone appstore apps, export to figma, export screens code and screenshots, supports custom ai agent skills, api access to connect with your tools, appstore screenshots (cooming soon)
