Episode notes
Build Micro Apps For Missing Features
- Try building small custom apps instead of waiting for vendors to add features you need.
- Pay a few hundred dollars to get exactly the feature set rather than waiting months for roadmap promises.
Pick No-Code Platforms If You're Not A Developer
- Avoid using developer-first vibe-coding tools if you aren't a coder.
- Use platforms like Lovable, Base44, or Emergent to handle backend, auth, payments, and AI connections for you.
Let Platforms Handle The Heavy Lifting
- Let platforms handle integrations and infrastructure when you lack developer skills.
- Choose a builder that sets up databases, auth, Stripe, and AI model connections for you.
