Here is another on the app created for me.

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

I've been working on a iOS devotional app for men, and while I have been doing that; I've been helping to test a SaaS web app that will auto generate you screenshots and metadata for your app. I'm pretty pleased with the screenshots so far.

I've been alpha testing a new web application that has the goal of fixing your conversions in the app store. I ran the audit against on of my apps, and I got roasted.

I think the app will be open to beta testing soon and I may have some codes if anyone is interested.

@TheGeorgePu How do you define ai wrapper?

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

The people being driven away from church are often being driven toward Jesus

The people Jesus was harshest with weren’t the sinners and outsiders. He saved his sharpest words for the religious professionals who made people feel excluded and burdened. The Pharisees.

RevenueCat: "your offering contains a package which contains a product". brother those are synonyms

Jesus ate with prostitutes and tax collectors.

We built buildings and argued about music styles.

Grace never looked like what the church told you it would.

@devontrails This is the power of vibecoding + Claude 🤯 Ditching 6 AWS tabs for a custom admin portal in an afternoon? Absolute game-changer.

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

@Smile_hao10 Honestly doing this has speed up my development and debugging by an order of magnitude. It is so nice to have everything in one spot.

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

I got tired of switching between 6 AWS console tabs to
manage my app. So I built my own admin portal in a single
afternoon with Claude as my co-pilot. Here's what it does 🧵

@TheGeorgePu No you’re not. People are to quick to replace things they deem old, but if the item is meeting our needs, then why waste the money?

@rivestack 1000% especially when you forget about that bastion running in another account

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

I spent a weekend consolidating all my side projects into one AWS account and honestly wish I'd thought more about this when I first started.

Building tools for yourself is underrated. Building them with Claude is unfair.

[Robert Smith @devontrails]

I'm not saying "AI wrote my app." I'm saying I operated as the architect making decisions about auth, API design, which pools to use and Claude handled the implementation at a speed I couldn't match solo. Lead and delegate
