@JeromeD09766758 @pinkfolkrsoft @ShamsCharania To be clear, I love Kyrie. He’s just handled his career far differently than Steph. There’s a lot of Steph slander out there that is undeserved. No hate for Kyrie, or even lebron and KD. They all did what they had to do.

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Because he’s not running around the league making demands and playing leGM. Steph didn’t join a super team or demand to be traded.

He developed with his core naturally with draymond and klay. He beat KD’s butt, then KD was so sad that he asked to join Steph.

Lebron, KD, Kyrie, Paul George all try to bounce around and manufacture good teams. Steph has always just done Steph.

All natural, non GMO basketball baby.

Claude Code + Firecrawl = AMAZING.

Leading up to the design and coding for my app's onboarding process, I had Claude do some research and write a report for me.

It checked out the 25 apps (mix of competitors and apps with "onboarding excellence") and summarized what they did well and what to avoid.

Attached is a snippet from the report. 10/10.

Ever play the Akinator Genie game in middle school? If not, look it up and go try it haha

It's a website that can guess any character you are thinking of simply by asking yes or no questions. It works really well and literally 'feels' like magic when it guesses right.

I decided to use it as the core frame for my onboarding.

The process should be frictionless and give the user a 'magical' feeling by inferring certain details about the them as we exclude data points about them via yes and no questions.

I'll share a demo of it when I am done!

Anyway... Get Claude hooked up to Firecrawl asap. Ask it to do some deep research for your idea/business and I promise it will blow your mind 🤯

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Got the ground work done and the first few pages up and running.

So far the design and flow is feeling better than expected!

Not even close to done, but some real progress to show off.

I’m stoked. Hell ya 🤘🏼

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Check out these design mockups 🔥

Did some research on competitors and the "winning" apps in this space. Borrowed some design principles, came up with these.

I am sticking with the "Paper/Calm" vibe but stealing some features from the other two.

Let me know what you think!

@1Umairshaikh Hermes blew my mind

New build starts today! Manager OS (temp name)

The goal is for it to be the lowest-friction task/project management app ever made.

It's for managers and small business owners who want a chunk taken off their plate so they can focus on the bigger picture.

I'm building it for myself first, then testing with a small business owner and a friend of mine 🙌🏼

Primary design rule from day one: the app will output more value than it asks for input. #AIpowered

I'll be sharing product decisions, the AI architecture, and whatever breaks as I go.

Me using Claude Opus 4.8 to rename a file

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Opus 4.8 is insane.

I was brainstorming a tool to replace the basic Google Forms for work and...

Claude said "How about I just show you" and coded an interactive example for me to test. I didn't even ask for it hahaha

fyi this is not Claude Code, just regular ol' chat😅

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Spent the last two days wiring up Obsidian and Pinecone to sit between my Hermes and Claude Code stack.

The ultimate memory/context system. They now share a brain…

Game changer 🤯

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Been a Windows guy my whole life.

A few weeks into Claude Code I keep hitting walls… every tutorial, every tool, every community answer assumes Mac.

The AI Dev world has spoken!

My MacBook will be here in a few weeks lol

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Took a break from Claude to spend some time outside 🏕️

Great reset, now I’m back at it 🙌🏼

Build skills inside ➡️ Live outside

@owenbuids speaking of your GEO conversations… I asked Hermes Agent to recommend some followers who are aligned with my goals and it recommended your account. Thought you might like to know that haha.

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

Started today with 8 days of coding experience and an idea in my head...

5 hours later, I have a live web app on the internet, connected to an AI, writing to a real database, with a working interview flow that actually works...

I didn't write a single line of code.

I used Opus to think and plan. I used Codex to build. I approved the work, tested it in my browser, and asked questions all along the way.

The gap between "idea" and "real thing that exists on the internet" just collapsed for me today. Completely.

I'm a retail store manager. I have no CS degree. I have no technical background.

I just shipped Phase 1 of my first real app. Phase 2 tomorrow.

The tools are here. The barrier is gone. This is INSANE 🤯

[Zach Hanson @zacharycade_]

I'm building my first agent tomorrow. Wish me luck!
