Hey 👋

I’m Suyue, a product manager by day and indie developer by night.

Over the past few months, I’ve built and launched 5 apps

I love building simple, thoughtful tools that make everyday life a little better.

Excited to share my journey here! 🚀

@aitorapps Yes! Firefly Todo already supports this 😊

There’s a setting you can enable to automatically move unfinished tasks back to the inbox, so they won’t get lost in yesterday’s calendar.

📆 Calendar + to-dos + sync | Firefly Todo, 50% off

Knowing what you need to do and knowing when you’ll do it are two different things. I’ve always felt a to-do app should help with both. A list can keep growing, and the tasks on it can sit there for weeks if you never make time for them.

That’s why I built Firefly Todo. I wanted to capture tasks and schedule them in the same place.

📥 Write it down first
A thought that pops into your head, a request that lands mid-meeting, a plan you haven’t picked a date for yet. Put it in the inbox and get back to what you were doing.

🗓️ Drag it onto your calendar
When you’re ready to plan, drag a task from the inbox straight into a slot on your calendar. On Mac, the list is on the left and the calendar is on the right. If your afternoon changes, just drag the task to another time.

🌱 Leave some room in your schedule
Some tasks need a specific time. Others just need to happen today, this week, or sometime this month. Firefly Todo lets you plan at any of those levels and pick an exact time later.

💻 Pick up where you left off
Firefly Todo stores your data locally. Capture a task on your iPhone and plan it later on your Mac with iCloud sync. The iOS app can also sync with the Windows companion over your local network.

That’s the workflow I built Firefly Todo for. Write it down now. Drag it onto the calendar when you’re ready. 🧡

@erginos_io Thank you. This looks very close to what I’ve been trying to build! I already have an agent workflow for analyzing apps and generating copy, but visual quality has been the biggest challenge.

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

Is there a way to generate a complete set of App Store screenshots with a single AI agent workflow?
From analyzing the app UI to creating layouts, localizing copy, and exporting all required sizes — fully automated.
Has anyone built or found a reliable solution?

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

@ibx1112599 Exactly! I’ve already built a workflow for UI analysis, copywriting, screenshots, and image generation.

The biggest challenge is visual quality. Agents like Codex can’t easily access the latest image generation models, so the results aren’t good enough yet.

@darihodl “我吻你” 😂

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

The future of software is built for both humans and AI agents.

Exposing capabilities through MCP or APIs is no longer optional. It's becoming essential.

One day, products may no longer need a UI for humans.

But they'll always need a way for AI agents to interact with them.

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

@168888888888888 用的是哪个agent呢，应该不至于吧😂

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

My indie dev workbench now runs on agents (via MCP)

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

The MCP layer is where it gets fun. Agents on my workbench can: pull impressions/ downloads/ revenue from ASC and write analysis reports; on each release, update product docs, grab screenshots and draft marketing posts; run ASO analysis and fill it back in

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

So I built Growmory, a local-first workbench. Per-app fact libraries (confirmed docs = source of truth), releases wired to App Store Connect, ASO workflows, analytics, marketing drafts. Structured facts beat scattered notes.

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

@BThreeAgency cooool . Is this actually built a working version?

[Suyue | Chinese Indie Maker @suyue1093]

@elonmusk 牛逼😂

🚀 Firefly Todo 2.0 is live on Product Hunt!

I'm an indie developer from China, building apps in my spare time.

I believe to-do lists should reduce stress, not create it.

Plan. Do. Reflect.
