Can I use this with .NET on the backend and Vue.js on the front-end? Is it capable to generate microservices in a microservice based app? If yes, can it add endpoints to the gateway and generate helm charts for deployment in Kubernetes? Can it use the default inter service communication in the project, i.e. REST API, gRPC, AMPQ? Is it capable of using an external identity provider? Can it use Keycloak? Can it cache d…

Today no. Today my bots specialize in Next.js. But with enough demand, I plan to also support Vue (Nuxt) and Svelt. It's possible that I may someday support .NET. I would like to eventually build bots that specialize in every framework and platform. Baby steps! About identity providers - Yes! I've used bots to set up Auth0 for one customer, and I frequently get asks for other providers. These will be coming soon! Abo…

Would have saved some time if you didn't add a bunch of options in the demo video that aren't built yet or aren't available yet.

It is a good idea - but a 2 week trial period would be a good idea. Keep going, I know the pain of being a solo dev :-)

Thanks! Right now the Starter is completely free. Do you mean a 2 week trial on the Pro?

yes

Nice job! Do you do affiliates? I’d love to list you on https://www.starter.place even though I know it’s so much more than a typical starter, I think it’s for the same audience.

How does it work?

It’s a marketplace for starter kits. An affiliate link would give me a commission for referring buyers.

Because it is true. At this point, Microsoft has partially acquired OpenAI and is extending their exclusivity deals to use their offerings. But the only way to compete against them is with open source AI models that are good enough substitutes for OpenAI’s offerings. With Stable Diffusion being open sourced, it completely ruined monetising options for DALLE-2 and threatened OpenAI to the point where they rushed out C…

I've been looking around at open source offerings that can run on "affordable" hardware. Right now you can run something like GPT-J on 4 GTX 3090s, which will cost you anywhere between 6k and 8k not including the rest of the PC. Once functional models get small enough, I think we'll see an absolute explosion in AI as anyone with a laptop will be able to freely tinker with their models.

Have you seen the latest Llama and Alpaca models?

1. LOL! Sorry! Volume is tricky to get right. I'll fix this with my next video. 2. Agree 100%! Second bots are becoming more sophisticated, but the truth is I am still pretty early. The video on this post, and on the website, is actually about a month old. I had planned on making an updated video with more interesting scenarios, but I ran out of time! I will have an updated video within the next two weeks. I also nee…

Also about being a solo founder. It's rough!

How was it like applying and getting in as a solo founder? I'm thinking of applying to YC solo as well so would appreciate any feedback or tips.
