    +1 for v0. Good for creating starting base design. I then ask Claude to organise codebase, then take it to Cursor. Should mention I'm non-technical and building a scrappy mvp this …

    This is neat, congrats on the invention! Did you get patents? Is the plan to supply or license it to some e-bike kit or e-bike manufacturers?
