Hi, I’m building a loyalty app for local businesses, for example the kind where 10 coffees = a free one ☕ (but more functions) I’m using no-code AI tools. Never done this before. This is a public experiment so follow if you want to see where this goes👇 #buildinpublic #nocode

This is what inspired me to try and build a loyalty app for customers & small businesses. Finding many lost and forgotten pieces of card scattered in drawers and hidden in piles of paperwork. Everything is digital now, and usually accessible on our mobiles! 🤝🏻Join the journey!

Some rough sketches of the application, giving the businesses the ability to swap out and customise their loyalty cards. It definitely helps having some rough ideas and guidance on what I am looking to achieve with the app I am building. Sketches & bullet points jotted down.

R.I.P paid courses... You can use any LLM like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude to build a custom course on any topic or subject. Here’s the mega prompt that we use to get world-class education for free:

Does anyone else feel like they get easily distracted by other app ideas, rather than just sticking to the original one and honing it until it's an MVP?? Just burned through a load of Bolt.new tokens by starting on 3 new apps alongside my Loyalty app 🙈

What if every small business could have its own loyalty card system… ...without needing to print a single card? Customers don't have to carry around that piece of card, because it will be in their phone. That's the app I'm building. No code, no dev team — just me and AI.

👋🏻 I'm new to the group, just wanted to say hi, and introduce myself. I'm Kev, and I've been recently hooked into the world of No-code app building. I'm running with bolt.new just now for my choice of building platform. Looking forward to sharing and helping if I can 🤞🏻♥️

🛠️ Tools I’m using to build this: – YOLO5D for app structure – OpenAI for writing content + feature planning – Canva for UI mockups – ChatGPT as my cofounder – Twitter to stay accountable

Here’s the core idea: 🟡 Businesses create loyalty offers (like punch cards). 🟣 Customers “follow” those businesses to collect rewards. 📲 One app, community of small businesses & customers, easy tracking. Would you use this?
