At some point I started to send incoming planes away like no airport for you!

I think it's great!

I looked into ESP32, M5 Stack, Arduino, etc. but as someone without experience it's very confusing. Which parts go together? Which case fits? Does that have a battery? All of this can be found out if you study the specs but it's not intuitive.

If all you want is tinker with a device, this device here is optimal.

For the people saying you can build this yourself: Yes. You can also build your own guitar from invidual parts and it will be cheaper than a store bought guitar. (I have done this). Is it super fun to build? Yes. Can everyone do it? No.

Thank you!

Thanks :)

Have a look at https://opendaw.org/

I recently saw a talk of the developer who basically bootstrapped this. Open source and all, and he talked about the idea of collaboration and showed some features and forks that sounded like what you want.

Super cool! I wanted to click on the device buttons on the landing page and expected to get video or sounds. Maybe include the youtube video there?

Yes, using apples own storekit for in-app purchases.

> The problem is that while these tools can help you build a simple prototype incredibly quickly, when it comes to building functional applications they are much more limited

As someone with 0 (zero) swift skills and who has built a very well functioning iOS app purely with AI, I disagree.

AI made me infinitly faster because without it I wouldn‘t even have tried to build it.

And yes, I know the limits and security concerns and understand enough to be effective with AI.

You can build functioning applications just fine.

It‘s complexity and novel problems where AI _might_ struggle, but not every software is complex or novel.

And… how?

If you really want to learn: Watch some people (your mom, neighbor or friends) use the app. Literally tell them "Hey look here's a new tool, can you set a couple of timers for me." and sit beside them and watch them use it. Don't tell them anything, just watch.

You will learn SO MUCH!

Thank you!

Love the CD design!

A minor note: Nowhere in the release note do you say what the app is or what it does. Sure, I can find out by following the links, but coming in cold not knowing what immich is, I was kind of expecting to learn that in the write-up.

It's a hurdle people have to take; and its eating from their 1.5second attention span. Some will get stuck or leave. OP asked for thoughts, this is to help him convert more people.

Just a quick note – the "Configure Your Exercise" step was a bit confusing. It took me a while to figure out what “Number of Gaps” even meant, since that’s not something I’d usually think about configuring.

Also, choosing an input method felt tricky. I hadn’t used the product yet, so I didn’t really know what to pick or what would work best for me.

Once I got into the app, everything made sense, but it wasn’t clear upfront.

Maybe you could let people start with a default setup and explore the options while using it. That way, the learning happens more naturally and the config step doesn’t feel like a blocker.
