I built a tool to help you vibe code your own app WITHOUT depending on a black-box platform (free)
Hey everyone, Here's the situation a lot of us have been in: one day you get an idea, you don't know how to code, so you ask ChatGPT to whip up a prototype. You like where it's going, but you still don't understand any of the code. So you move on to something like Lovable, and suddenly you're inside a black box — you don't really know what's happening under the hood, you're locked into a third-party platform, and you don't have real control over your own project. I built a web app that takes a different approach: it teaches you how to build a web app using AI, without needing to already know how to code, but without locking you into a black box. The idea is to get your own VPS to host your project, so you get more security, more control, and you actually understand what you're building instead of just prompting a platform. It's completely free. Even if this isn't something you'd personally use, I'd really appreciate feedback on the idea and the site's design — is the concept clear? Does the design work? Anything that stands out as needing improvement? Here's the link: https://learnapp.appel.ovh Thanks a lot for any feedback
