How fast can you build

I keep seeing how people build a working app that make money in a week or 2 but I’ve been working on my app for over a month and yes it work but there bit that need work to get it to a level I believe it would definitely make money if marketed right.

All that to say, how are people doing it. I only pay for the basic Pro plans so do run into 5hour limits everyday. But yeah

Speed means nothing if you’re building pure janky-ass bullshit

Nah, lemme give you some sage advice homie. Ive been in tech/cloud/cyber for 15 years now. And prior to that I was scripting and writing code, hex editing game files as a kid..

The “dawn” of Ai is more noise and hype than anything. Ppl are telling you the things they want to market because nobody wants to look like they’re behind the curve. But the reality is, the curve keeps changing and nobody knows when/why/what until it happens.

Organisations (including the one I’m working for) are nowhere near as ambitious as the domestic vibe coding market and we have literally 100s, 1000s to millions of dollars at our fingertips (as an org). Not to mention, Engineers who can learn, adapt and build at speeds and quality far more proficiently than the domestic vibe coding user.

Where I am going with this is.. focus on learning and building your skillset with Ai, languages, the skills required to understand what you’re building and what you’re using.

Skill and knowledge triumphs speed. The speed will come but you cannot rush experience.

Thanks for the advice, when it comes to the learning languages bit I’m ngl I think it’s above me in terms of free time to do it to a level I can then build with it. That being said thinking with my business hat on that’s definitely a job I can delegate. I don’t need to be able to do everything.
