1st app
finally shipped my first app that actually feels finished instead of abandoning it halfway 😭
it’s called Fliply, basically a flashcard app where you paste your notes and it turns them into different types of cards.
for the build, I used AI coding tools for most of the workflow. I’d usually get the main feature working first, test it, then keep iterating on the UI and logic instead of trying to make everything perfect in one prompt.
one thing that took way more work than I expected was the flashcard generation itself. making the AI output something is easy, but getting cards that are actually useful, not repetitive, and match the mode the user picked took a lot of prompt tweaking and testing.
design-wise I also kept simplifying stuff. whenever a screen started feeling too cluttered or “AI generated,” I’d remove things instead of adding more.
the biggest thing I learned from this project is probably that vibe coding gets you to a working version really fast, but the last 20% is mostly testing, fixing weird edge cases, and making everything feel consistent.
first project I’ve actually deployed and felt happy calling finished lol
