Recently, I solo-built and launched a global dating app using Flutter, Supabase, and Next.js – all in about 100 days, heavily relying on Cursor's Pro plan ($20/mo).While AI tools like Cursor make rapid development possible, I wanted to share some practical realities from the engineering side and the economics of building with...

It’s a bit of a hassle, but after closing the Windows command, you can restart the program and use it indefinitely. The results you worked on will still remain in the workspace folder.
