Thank you

This is the best comment here! I made this app not with making money in mind, but knowing I want an obtainable skill that I can leverage with applying to schools/jobs. I’m not here to make money quick, I want to build something with meaning, and I don’t think that’s possible with someone’s first app. This is the first step in learning to reach my meaningful idea.

I mean I got good feedback and only improved my app from this post, and got in contact with cool people. I’ll call it a win :). We can agree to disagree, your point is valid. And no I didn’t even know you could buy upvotes, I think the only people commenting are because I said I’m 16.

Thanks for checking out my app, even if you showed support or really hated it, all feeback is needed.

Lot's of people were questioning my credibility on wether I was 16 or not and many other things, if this is such a concern to you I post on Twitter @willcranna where there's a demo video of my product.

Once again thank you, and I hope to post here again. Hopefully next time majority enjoy the product, lol.

You're right I have no coding skill. But testing out Lovable and bringing my idea to reality made me realize this is something I want to learn so I've already began taking a course learning how to code softwares of my own.

People should't be "scared" of these LLM's it's just a tool that shows coding to a wider audience.

If i'm selling to students (kids) would they not be more interested in an app made for them by someone like them?

Thanks, definitely had a few laughs when scrolling through the comments this morning. I’m happy you like my idea, and I hope to only improve upon it from here.

lol I don’t think my idea is that revolutionary. Maybe I make something good enough for the YC in the future. I’m happy you like my product!

Entrepreneurial skills? I didn’t mean to come off this way, just made a quick post showing what I’m working on. Thanks for the feedback.

Fair enough, I’ll update my HN profile. I just thought I’d quickly make a post.

Thank you. I’m hoping I can improve in this idea.

None of the images are fake, most of them are from a free licensing site. And the Conner photo is my friend.

If you make a free account you’ll see it’s not a scam. I do agree a demo video would be a good idea.
