Author's note

I am not an app developer. I am merely an UI vibe-coder, and i delegate the vast majority of UI-related tasks to LLMs. Not only that, but I'm also cheap: I'm not really prone to spending money (on top of the pro-plan's 20$) in order to polish a secondary project.

These facts are reflected in the code: the app code is sub-optimal and repetitive, the structure is rushed and flat.

BUT, maybe this is a good thing: if you're unexperienced as I am, you can still create your own websites, apps and UIs. Play with these models, let them help you, do stuff.

Just don't forget that this doesn't make you an app developer. It sure didn't make me one, nor will it.
