Lesson by Lee Harding

The story is always evolving.

I've been refining and expanding the "story" of UDP Gateway for months now. Distilling it, finding where it's still diluted, and at the same time deepening the substance. It's never done, and honestly not always better from day to day, but overall feels right in conversations these days. It's not about putting aside what the platform can do, just leading with speaking to the pains people are feeling right now.

Apptruth lets you scan their github repo and reveals any…

I built Apptruth because my users were always finding issues with my apps before i did, and that was obviously a big problem. Apptruth doesn't scan for security issues - there's already tons of apps that do this. It scans for logical issues like: - a public post can be seen by a user if they do this... - users can be charge twice if this happens... - actual real flows and features that shouldn't be possible and can cause serious damage. So far i've tested it in beta with a few users and its counted 35 issues in total across all users. I asked each user to confirm if these issues were real (they asked their claude/codex that has all the context) and they all confirmed each of the 35 found issues. This is huge for 2 reasons: - Apptruth lets you find issues your AI agent didn't find - Apptruth acts as a vibe code app launch checklist Apptruth lets vibe coders ship something real. It gives you the confidence to ship working and more reliable apps. It lets you ship apps worry-free. Apptruth is the tool I wish i had before i shipped tons of apps in the past.

Day #2 building Buildside in public 🚀 I've added the main…

founder network. e.g. you can: - ask a question and get answers - ask founders for feedback on your app - announce a product launch - share a lesson you learned - announce you hit a milestone (MRR, visitors, etc) The feed isn't just a place where you share posts and doom-scroll, it's a source of knowledge base you can learn invaluable things from successful founders.
