There are some awesome ideas in this space, I have seen one about having a song together with someone, where it's a spotify album cover but it's a custom photo on a glass plaque

Hi, I had someone bring this issue up recently, it was for Bangor Northern Ireland, but then it appeared when we tried again. - I'll look into it again!

This is something I made with Astro, I am going to attempt to monetise it and run ads since I think it is a cool business model, I can post a guide on how this works if anyone is interested. - It's using Astro, Headless Shopify and Gelato, the main cost will be running ads.It's a useful template if anyone wants. - Play about with the editor

Re:Show HN: Verysmall.site – vibecode single page websites on Wednesday June 04, 2025 @01:17PM (#44183092)
Interesting vibe code project. I was messing about with something similar recently, but when your page was created, there is always a input at the bottom with a 'regenerate' button

So you can say 'nevermind, make the background darker, and remove the navbar' to make edits. - Made it quite flexible, I dumped the idea though.

Congratulations on this; Love how clean the UI is. How are you getting early users?
Here’s what my own card looks like: https://www.projct.dev/ajoshu

Ask HN: How do you get traffic for your pre-product launches?

I’ve been building small tools lately and trying to get initial feedback and traction before they’re fully “productized.”I mostly promote to - Hacker news (here) - X/Twitter - RedditCurious — how do you get eyes on your projects early on? Any other underrated communities, strategies, or places to share? Would love to hear what’s working (or not) for others!

Interesting, thanks
Interesting, I could prob store that locally then make it avoid re-generating

Thanks for feedback

Thanks for trying it out!
Thanks for the feedback I'll look into those logs now! Sometimes specific questions can throw errors, which I am trying to improve.
Hi, yes this happens very rarely, it's usually triggered when it thinks you are trying to escape out of the subject, try to limit your question length a little. - Thanks for giving it a try.
