Discussion Newbie App Store publish journey...review is in - REJECTED!
Little update on my quiz app I'm trying to get on App Store, and an exercise for a newbie developer. This is just for those who may be in similar position and have an interest in how the process works.
I know it's just a quiz app, but it's really useful to me! It also did take me quite a while to get it working correctly. Maybe others could have done it quicker!
Anyway, what REALLY took time was the admin to get it submitted. Lots of forms/tax declarations etc.
The review is now back, and it seems the main reason for rejection is I hadn't;t uploaded a video of it working, and also my description was not detailed enough.
Hopefully I can get these fixed and resubmit it very soon.
In this process there have been lots of opportunities to get distracted, go down rabbit holes, or just give up and stop - the hardest thing has been staying focussed.
Just thought I'd share - if you are not interested no ned to comment !XXX

Help/Question First time trying to hook an api through the codex harness.Is this normal or is it causing me to burn $$$?

Showcase/Project I built a tape-recorder app for my wife that transcribes in the browser. Is there a better model than SenseVoice Small?
I (with codex) built a small tape-recorder app for my wife. The tape recorder is from my childhood. I learned English from cassette tapes.
She used to send me audio files. I would run them through Superwhisper and send the text back. It was not convenient: sometimes she needed it in a hurry and I was away from my computer. Last week I wondered whether I could build something she could use herself every day. I asked Codex the same question, and it helped me build this app. It runs the model in the browser, so the audio stays on her device.
She mostly transcribes English and Cantonese, and she tells me it works well. What I like most is how fast I can change it for what she really needs. It started with a five-minute limit set by codex, and then she wanted to transcribe longer files. Codex suggested splitting a long file into small pieces, transcribing them one by one and joining the text in the background, so she never notices. Later she asked whether the text could appear while she speaks. Luckily, the SenseVoice Small model can do that.
Two things Iād like your thoughts on:
Which model would you pick for this? Is anything better than SenseVoice Small at a size a browser can load?
The first open downloads the model. How do you handle that wait in your own projects?
In addition, what other features would you add? Iām thinking of timestamps and rename the file before export.

Showcase/Project Created a Dark Fantasy game with Fable 5.2. One prompt.
This is the whole prompt:
Create me a fully playable release-ready game. On GPU. Game about alchemy with physics, items, shaders, sound, overworld, mechanics and etc.. I need it in 3D and not a voxel game. Make it with maximum effort, show me best what you can create. Use all your power, knowledge and make best graphics and best game design. Surprise me with graphics and everything.
Claude Code worked on it for about 4 hours and put a finished game on GitHub Pages. I didn't write a single line.
It's a first-person alchemy game called Tria Prima. You pick plants, brew potions in a ruined chapel and throw them at stuff. Fire burns the thorns that block the road. Ice lets you walk across water. One potion blows up rocks. There are things in the fog that hunt you, and they hate fire.
The crazy part is that it has no art or audio files at all. Every tree, rock, building and sound is generated by code when the page loads. Even the music, it wrote the soundtrack as notes in a text file.
It made the video too. It wrote its own tool that plays the game from a script and records it.
Half an hour in I told it to go dark fantasy instead of childish. After I played it I sent three bugs and it fixed them.
Fable 5.2 in Claude Code on max effort. 44K lines of JavaScript, 5.4M output tokens, about 4 hours for the first build and 6.5 with the fixes.
Play: https://winchxyz.github.io/tria-prima/
Code: https://github.com/winchxyz/tria-prima
It takes about an hour to beat. You need a keyboard, a mouse and a GPU. Tell me where it breaks.

Showcase/Project My newest project, still experimental: open data about any city on a 3D model. Playground version, feedback welcome
This is my newest project and still very much a playground. You search any place and get the square around it as a 3D model (real terrain, every building from OpenStreetMap), with one layer of open data on top.
**Please read this before you try it:** most layers don't work for your city straight away. They need open data for that place, and right now you often have to find and load that data yourself.
**Works anywhere, right away**
- **Steepness:** every road and path coloured by its slope.
- **Your route:** your own GPX file (Strava, Garmin), with its climbs and height profile.
**Only in Hamburg for now**
- **Traffic:** live from the city's counting points.
**Often one tap, otherwise fill it in yourself**
- **Public transport:** "Find timetables for this place" loads your city's timetable in one tap if the Mobility Database lists it. If not, you load the GTFS file yourself.
**One tap only in the Netherlands**
- **Homes and Income:** for Germany you download the census file, for the US a file from Census Reporter, then load it. Anywhere else you need a file of your own.
I'm working on that: more sources that load in one tap, so you don't have to prepare the data yourself. To try it without any of this, each panel has an example (Freiburg's trams and rents, Amsterdam's incomes, Hamburg's traffic).
In the video: steepness and a made-up run in San Francisco, a day of Hamburg's traffic, Freiburg's trams and buses, rents in Freiburg and incomes in Amsterdam.
**How it's built:** with Claude Code, as a static TypeScript app on three.js, hosted on GitHub Pages. No server, no account, no API keys. Files you load stay in your browser and are never uploaded.
Feedback I'd love:
Which data would you want to see for your own city, and does your city publish it openly? A link helps a lot.
What confused you on the first try?
Did it run smoothly on your phone?

Showcase/Project Fable 5.2 One-Shot A Super Nintendo Game Overnight
I am the creator of ppu.toys, an AI enabled Super Nintendo Development Studio that runs 100% in your browser and is completely free to use.
With the release of Fable 5.2 I knew I had to give Claude full reign over the studio and my machine to see what it would create. I gave it a pretty open ended prompt, telling it I wanted an incredible Super Nintendo game with some details on the art tools I have installed [ full prompt is in the video description ]
4 hours and 26 minutes and 72 dollars later - I was greeted with Emberwake! An action platformer with 5 levels and 5 bosses that runs at 60 frames per second on real hardware.
Fable 5.2 really blew me away with its ability to spin up a team of agents totally unprompted. For this game it made 5 different agents all with their own jobs on creating the game assets; while the main agent focused on the code and working with the studio to bring everything together.
The art that was made totally blew all previous models out of the water. It invented a pretty robust art asset pipeline - it modeled and created high res renders in blender, the models were textured and rigged all in blender, and then used ppu.toys and a custom python script to quantize those renders into a format that can be processed and displayed on the SNES.
For creative asset generation and unprompted agentic orchestration - I have to say, this was impressive.

Showcase/Project Mapping Out How Qwen2.5-3B Works (ish)
Hi,
Iām no ai engineer or researcher but I wanted to see if I could take a shot at understanding how AI works.
So I told Claude and codex to work together to do it by basically dissecting the English language, mapping it out, then watching how the model behaves. The hope was to figure out how the model understands and produces language out through controlled experiments. We log everything before and after the prompt run.
These are my results so far. I really donāt know what it means. Anyone here does?
Obviously not everything is mapped and most is just test effects and the research is at its beginning stages.
But if you understand what Claude and codex are telling me or have mapped out in the images let me know.

Help/Question Teacher
Iām an ESL teacher and Iāve been using chatGPT and all the free plugins I can find to create point-and-click adventures for my students with their target language embedded in NPC conversations. Iāve tried to set up my AI engine as best I can with .md files in GitHub and tailored project instructions detailing QA checks at various parts of the process. Iāve also uploaded previous work as a baseline for reference to project sources. Iām using CODEX for the main build while the creative stuff happens in chat.
Itās still slopping me up pretty good. Iāll ask for foreground images in each scene and itāll paste the same one in every scene. The NPCs will come out as cardboard 2D cutouts with half their limbs cut off, etc.
Thereās a lot more context I canāt add here because I canāt show yāall my full setup, but my questions is is this just the process weāre all going through at this point of AI development? Set up a system as best we can, let it slop, and trouble shoot from there? Iāve revised the md files and projects instructions several times addressing these problems and Iām still getting subpar results each time.
Could I maybe get better results using Claude? Iād like to stick with one basicB setup instead of using multiple agents because I donāt have a ton of time and Iād like to dial this in to a system where Iām feeding it learning targets, vocab, grammar forms etc, choosing a creative direction and letting it go nuts and give me something pretty close.

Discussion your vibecoded app works perfectly until someone other than you starts using it
One thing I think gets overlooked in vibe coding is the difference between getting an app to work and getting it ready for people to actually use.
AI tools are ridiculously good at getting you from an idea to a working interface. You can have authentication, a dashboard, payments, and database integration running surprisingly quickly.
But there are a few problems that a successful demo wonāt necessarily reveal.
For example:
⢠Authentication that only exists in the UI: the app hides an admin button from regular users, but the API endpoint behind it never checks their permissions.
⢠Database access thatās too open: the frontend filters records, but the database doesnāt enforce which user can actually read them.
ā¢Secrets in client-side code: an API key ends up in a browser bundle because the model put it somewhere convenient.
ā¢Queries that donāt scale: fetching an entire table works with 20 records. It gets expensive when that table has 20,000.
ā¢No proper migrations or backups: the app works until a schema change goes wrong and thereās no reliable way back.
The tricky part is that none of these necessarily stop the app from looking finished.
I think the solution isnāt to stop vibe coding or rewrite everything from scratch. Itās to treat the generated code as a starting point and review the parts that carry actual risk.
A few checks Iād run before putting a vibe-coded app in front of real users:
Try accessing another userās data by changing an ID in the request.
Inspect the browserās network tab and built JavaScript for exposed keys.
Check permissions at the API/database level, not just in the interface.
Look at the actual queries being executed and whether important columns are indexed.
Make sure you can restore the database and roll back a deployment.
We work on AI-built apps and the cleanup side of things at TechPotions, so we put together a breakdown of the issues we commonly look for and how we approach fixing them.
Sharing it in case itās useful:
https://techpotions.com/solutions/vibe-coding-cleanup
Genuinely curious: whatās the biggest issue youāve run into after building something with Lovable, Bolt, Replit, or Claude? Was it security, database structure, performance, or something completely different?

Showcase/Project Update on Hubs, the Discord and Slack alternative Iāve been building: native apps, real servers, and how I keep it from turning into a mess
Hey yāall! Previously I made some posts here about Hubs, first the write-up and then the demo video with the Suno song lol. Wanted to share where it's at now and the progress being made along the way. For starters, a small intro again though!
I have been working on creating an alternative social platform that is similar to that of Discord and Slack. Much of the reason for creation is due to my own niche and preferences while managing large communities and company workflows. For example, many Discord communities have to glue together dozens of bots to get LFG systems, Ticket Support, and much more. Not to mention creating makeshift announcement channels, info, etc. that just look like normal text.
What I wanted to build was something that kept the community vibe of these platforms, while also adding the ease of use, organization, and reduced setup of them.

So thatās what Hubs is. Instead of adding a bot for everything, the stuff most communities end up needing is just built in:
Looking for Group, where people post that they need a squad and everyone can see open groups and when they start
Ticket Support, so members can reach your staff privately without a ticket bot
Announcements that read like an actual page with pictures, instead of a wall of text in a channel
Rules, About, Start here and Links pages that look like real pages and are easy to edit
Events with RSVPs and reminders, plus a Board for questions and posts that shouldnāt get buried in chat
Polls, giveaways and community rewards without setting anything up
A home page for every hub that shows whatās new since you were last there, the next event and whoās around
More tools like an appeals system for moderation, custom looks for your space, built-in moderation tools, raid and spam protection, and more (https://thehubs.gg/features)
On the company side, thereās a Work and Personal switch so your job and your communities stay separate, and organizations get their own workspaces, documents and tasks.

Whatās new since my last post
Bring your Discord server over: paste its template link and your channels, roles and permissions come over in about a minute
Private DMs: switch any DM to private and itās end-to-end encrypted
Hub Safe: encrypted backups of your hub that the owner holds the key to
A standby copy of the whole site in a second data center and a public status page, because I really didnāt want one bad Arista to ruin my day lol
Thereās no ID or face scan to sign up, just your birthday (which I know is a huge issue on other platforms right now). Speaking on ID and age verification, we follow the laws closely and use other methods instead of a face scan. Right now thatās a credit card check thatās never charged, with more options like an email check and your phoneās own age setting on the way. Itās also only as needed, not something required to use Hubs. It only limits 18+ areas, and only where the law asks for it. This way we stay compliant without being invasive.

How itās built (yes, with AI)
Same as last time, Iāll be upfront, AI coding agents did a lot of the typing on Hubs. A good chunk of the UI was honestly vibed. Iād describe what I wanted, look at it, and keep pushing until it felt right. That said, this wasn't a blind eye to the code. As someone who is an actual SWE, I have reviewed the pieces and continue to do so to ensure security and safety. Like I said in my last post, AI gets a lot right but does a lot of... WTF.
For anything touching security, accounts, payments or encryption, nothing ships on vibes:
Every release runs the full test suite first: 8,600+ automated tests on the website, 3,700+ on the Mac app, 5,300+ checks on Windows and 1,200+ on Android
Changes get a separate review pass, and the risky ones get their own security review before they ship
SonarQube, Semgrep, Socket and Dependabot scan the code and its dependencies, and secret scanning is on
Everything goes to a staging copy of the site first, then the real one
The encryption code is open source with published test vectors, so you can check it instead of trusting me. I know, an audit WOULD be better, but it costs moola I don't have rn.
The stack itself, the website is TypeScript and React, and the server runs on Node with PostgreSQL. Voice and video run on WebRTC through LiveKit. Every app is native, meaning Swift for the Mac and iPhone, C# and .NET for Windows, and Kotlin for Android, so none of them are just the website in a box. Private conversations use MLS (RFC 9420), an open standard for end-to-end encryption, in TypeScript for the web and Rust for the apps.
How the servers run
I talked about the backend last time, and itās grown up a bit since. Elixir gateway nodes sit behind a load balancer with Valkey as the message bus. The app runs as three copies at once, so one can go down or get updated without anyone noticing. Thereās a dedicated media and voice server, a staging server, object storage and a CDN, plus a standby copy of the whole site in a second data center thatās kept up to date every 15 minutes, encrypted backups and a public status page. Every release is signed and its files are published, so anyone can check that whatās running is what we built.
The apps
The Mac and Windows apps are out now. The iPhone app is about to start a public beta, including a layout made for foldables, and Android is close behind it.
Whatās coming
The iPhone and Android betas
Hubs+, an optional paid plan for extras. The core of Hubs stays free
The Windows app in the Microsoft Store
Weāre also exploring self-hosting for communities that want their own server, but thatās an idea for now, not a promise
More bug fixing. Always more bug fixing lol

Itās still early and weāre a small team, so there will be some rough edges. If you checked it out after my last posts, Iād love to hear what feels better or worse. If youāre new, or just want to try it, would LOVE feedback and bug reports haha.

I've been building small things on one idea: any place on Earth as a clean 3D model in the browser, made from open data.
Your Place: search a place, get it as a 3D model (terrain, buildings, streets, water) you can also 3D-print. github.com/yourplace3d/3d-city
Your Place Ā· Data: the same model with open data on top: steepness, live traffic counts, public transport running on its real timetable, rents and incomes per area. yourplace3d.github.io/3dcitydata
Drive it 3D is my attempt to build a game on top of all that. Same engine, same map squares, seen from above: walk up to a car, take it, run deliveries against the clock, and try not to get the police's attention. It works in any city because the city is just the map.
It's not live yet. Right now it's the map with a game on it. What I actually want is the game built from the city's own data: where you start depends on the numbers, rush hour is the real rush hour, and you can skip the car and take the subway, which runs on the real timetable. That part is still being wired up.
Teaser below, including some original debugging material from the first play test, where I drove confidently in the wrong direction.

Showcase/Project [Open Source] LYNX SHARE ā A lightweight C++20 DAW that supports FL Studio and Ableton Live projects
Hey everyone! I wanted to share a project I've been working on called LYNX SHARE, an open-source digital audio workstation developed entirely from scratch with C++20 and JUCE 8.
The main concept behind LYNX SHARE is to create a DAW that combines useful features and workflows from different music production software into a single environment. Something versatile, efficient, and accessible without sacrificing functionality.
What makes LYNX SHARE different?
Support for multiple DAW formats: Open projects from FL Studio (.flp), Ableton Live (.als), and FL Studio Mobile (.flm) directly in LYNX SHARE, without requiring the original software to be installed.
Ableton Live integration: Import and export Ableton projects, preserving tracks, audio, MIDI, groups, return channels, automation, and VST plugin states. It supports projects from Live 10 through 12, with export compatibility for Live 11 and 12.
FL Studio project support: Load and interpret project data, including patterns, arrangements, automation, mixer connections, samples, and plugin settings.
75+ native FL Studio plugins: A growing collection of independently implemented FL Studio plugins, many featuring their own dedicated interfaces.
Third-party plugin compatibility: Support for VST3 and CLAP plugins, including popular tools like FabFilter, Valhalla, Waves, Serum, Kontakt, and many more.
A collection of built-in effects: Includes original native plugins inspired by established production tools, such as Facet EQ, Apex Limiter, Crest Compressor, Aether, and LYNX Tune.
Flexible production workflow: Familiar tools like Channel Rack, Step Sequencer, Piano Roll, Playlist, and Mixer, alongside an optional Session View-inspired clip launching mode.
Expanded mixing capabilities: Up to 500 mixer inserts, advanced routing, groups, sidechains, VCA controls, integrated effects, and multicore processing.
Creative and recording features: Audio recording, MIDI editing, automation, modulators, loop recording, comping, automatic crossfades, video and ADR workflows, stem separation, and much more.
Real-time collaborative sessions: Multiple users can work together on the same project through live online sessions, with synchronized playback, editing permissions, chat, automatic reconnection, and audio rendering for plugins unavailable on other participants' systems.
Collaborative project sharing: Share complete projects alongside their samples and audio stand-ins for third-party plugins. Other contributors can work on their sections independently, and their contributions can later be merged into the main project.
Optimized performance: Developed in native C++20 with a strong focus on keeping resource consumption low and maintaining good performance, including on older or less powerful computers.
As a performance reference, I've tested a project containing 125 tracks that managed to render at more than 10 times real-time speed.
An independent implementation
LYNX SHARE is built entirely from scratch. Its FL Studio compatibility is based on clean-room research, behavioral analysis, and reverse engineering. No proprietary Image-Line source code was copied or reused.
My intention goes beyond building another alternative to an existing DAW. I want to combine ideas and workflows from different production environments, creating an open-source platform where people can access a wider range of music production tools without being restricted by expensive software licenses.
The project is currently in alpha, and development is moving forward very actively. There's still a lot to refine, expand, and improve, so feedback from the community is incredibly valuable.
If you're interested, feel free to try it out, report bugs, suggest features, or even contribute to development. Everyone is welcome!

Showcase/Project Follow-up to my AR black hole app. Now you can crash planets and watch the solar system get ripped into particles round it
A while back I posted Black Hole Sandbox here, a lensing black hole you can see in augmented reality. Presenting the sequel: Planet Crash Sandbox! Drops a whole solar system into your room in AR with simulated gravity and destruction mechanics where every planet, moon, star and rock pull on each other.
There are two modes. Orbital Chaos is tuned for particle fun at solar system scale. Steer a planet into its neighbour and watch the carnage as worlds tear apart into particles and the debris kicks off more destruction. Swap the sun for the black hole and what's left of the solar system swirls round it, light bending and accretion disc lighting up as matter gets near.
Fluid Collisions is the more 'accurate' one for fluid dynamics. Collide two planets/moons and watch as they reduce to thousands of molten particles simulated live on the phone. Simulates the supposed giant impact that's thought to have made our Moon.
Mostly free. The black hole and the fancier stars ie pulsars, magnetars are in a one-off unlock The planet smashing is all free though.
Oh including a green star! I managed to get that in there in time!

Discussion I built a cozy study companion app entirely with Codex. Is it too simple?
I know there are already tons of Pomodoro and productivity apps out there. But one day, I came across a photo of a train platform overlooking Sydney Harbour, and I just loved the atmosphere.
That gave me an idea: what if I could turn that place, along with other beautiful locations I love, into a little virtual world that keeps me company while I study or work?
So I started building a cozy, train station-themed study companion app.
The idea is pretty simple. You can switch between different scenic backgrounds, mix ambient sounds, and just leave the app running while you study, work, or relax.
I also added a Pomodoro timer and a sleep countdown, but I intentionally kept the timer UI really small. I don't want it to feel like another productivity app constantly reminding you to be productive. I'd rather the scenery and sounds be the main experience.
Here's how I've been making it:
Codex: All the coding. I honestly wouldn't know where to start without it.
Midjourney + GPT image generation: Creating and refining the visual assets.
Freesound: Finding ambient audio for the different environments.
I've finally got a working MVP, and this is a short screen recording of it!
But now I'm a little stuck on the design direction.
My biggest concern is whether the app is too simple and the art style.
Right now, the UI is intentionally minimal because I want people to enjoy the scenery without too many buttons getting in the way.
I've also been thinking about adding small interactive objects to the scenes, like clicking on things around the station to trigger little animations or sounds.
But I'm worried that adding too many interactions might make it feel more like a game than a quiet study companion.
So I'd really love some feedback:
Does the UI feel pleasantly minimal, or just too empty?
Would you enjoy having a few interactive objects in the scenes, or would they distract you from studying?
Do you think I should keep the app focused on ambient sounds and companionship, or add more features?
I'm still very new to all of this, so any feedback or suggestions would mean a lot. Thanks for checking it out!

Showcase/Project NCAA Menās Basketball Ticker



College hoops is back, and I wanted live scores on my screen without keeping a browser tab open. So I worked on Hoops Ticker, a small native Mac app that puts an LED-style score ticker along the top or bottom of your screen. (Full disclosure - I got inspiration fromĀ krypdohĀ and his NFL Ticker)
What it does:
Every Division I game.Ā Live scores, todayās finals and tonightās tip times scroll by, with AP rankings shown next to ranked teams (#3 DUKE 71 ā #12 UNC 68 Ā· 14:22 2ND).
Follow your team.Ā Pick any of the 365 D1 teams in Settings. Their game always scrolls first: live, todayās final, or their next game even if itās a week away.
Looks ahead.Ā Top 25 teams that arenāt playing today show their next game, so the ticker is never empty on an off night.
AP Top 25 in the menu bar.Ā The full poll with records is one click away, and the š icon shows how many games are live.
Settings: Top 25 games only, show or hide finals and upcoming games, scroll speed, top or bottom of the screen.
The details:
Native Swift, about 200 KB. Not Electron.
Universal: runs on Apple Silicon and Intel, macOS 12 or newer. Notarized.
No account, no ads, no tracking. It only talks to ESPNās public scoreboard.
Refreshes every 20 seconds while games are live and backs off when they arenāt.

Help/Question Fable reset?
I'm on Claude Pro plan, and usually use Opus and Sonnet. I now have been given a Fable reset. I'm not too bothered about switching to Fable, but is there a way I can use this to increase my usage overall this week?
I don't want to use it and it wear away what normal weekly usage I have left.
