Last week, I asked how you create your landing page. x.com/MarkusOdenthal… Astro came highly recommended. So, this week, I dove in. I started with the AstroWind Template. Cursor sped up my progress. How? By using this prompt: Explain how this astro site gets

Wow, did you see the new coding agent from Replit ⠕? It’s like Cursor but specifically designed for building SaaS applications. I know what I’ll be doing this weekend! 👀😬

I'm obsessed with Vercel 😃 It's a blast to use for my AI tattoo design project. Today, I added my own domain, and Vercel's guidance was seamless. It even alerts you when it's time to clear out outdated DNS settings.

Just hit 33 today. Perfect time to reflect, don't you think? Who am I? A husband and dad with big dreams: → Living life on my own terms → Doing work I love → Giving my family the very best I’m scared to start this journey, but… 40 is coming closer. If I don’t go all in

I aimed to post daily for a full year without a break. I nailed it for 90 straight days. Then the weekend hit, I got sick, and had nothing ready. Missed a day. For newbies like me, prepping daily content is tough, isn't it? How do you ensure you always have content ready?

I discovered a limitation of AI for coding. The hard way. I often just accept the changes it suggests. But today Cursor messed up my website completely 🫠 And it took me hours to fix it. Learning? Never trust AI blindly. Always double-check its work.

Impressed by the o1-preview model and Cursor combo Needed to inspect 3000+ URLs in Search Console It took over 8 hours sequentially Asked the AI to rewrite my script to make it concurrent A tough task in Python It solved it in minutes Now it runs in under 20 minutes 🚀

Today I realized just how simple web analytics can be. I've mainly used Google Analytics before, but today... I tried Vercel for the first time. In three quick steps, you can set up basic web analytics. It feels like magic compared to Google Analytics 😀 Have you tried it?

o1 OpenAI model paired with Cursor? Pure genius! Refactored yesterday's messy Python script with a prompt: "I have the following Python script. Please refactor the code." Results? Impressive! Another giant leap for AI coding.

Just reviewed Google's latest crawl times for a client's category pages. I was surprised by my findings. Out of 800 pages, 148 haven't been crawled in over a week. SEO pros, is this typical?

App development has never been simpler. It's not just about AI, though. It's also about the tools available to developers today. My new favorite setup for building web apps: Cursor + Replit ⠕ Cursor: Seamless AI integration Replit: Effortless deployment and testing

I've noticed that many people love Supabase. What are your thoughts? What are the biggest advantages of using Supabase over a standard Postgres database?

Cursor is great but it's missing a key feature: AI-generated commit messages. The little stars you see in the red box. It's pretty handy. It analyzes your changes and crafts a message for you. This is why I still need to use the GitHub Copilot extension😃

This is basically my team 🔥🔥🔥 We came together earlier this week and now have a proof of concept of the engagement app that's built from the ground up that were dogfeeding for testing. At this rate, might have something to share next week!

It's the weekend, meaning more time for my side project 🚀 Have you checked out the new Cursor feature? With # you can now add files. I find this feature along with the UI super helpful. What do you think?
