Cline Bot = FREE Cursor Alternative

Don't pay for Cursor or Windsurf.

Why?

Because Cline + OpenRouter.AI can you give the exact same experience for FREE (up to 1k requests/day)

I made a YT demo

Need help with Color Picking? Use CopyMeow.com

CopyMeow is a user-friendly tool that solved a common need of mine.

It allows you to extract the color palette from any website in just 1 click.

Here's how it works:

  1. Insert the URL: Enter the website URL into CopyMeow's input field.
  2. Wait a Few Seconds: The tool analyzes the website's colors, including the homepage, accents, and secondary colors.
  3. Download the JSON: Once the analysis is complete, download a JSON file containing the extracted color palette.

This JSON file provides a detailed breakdown of the website's color scheme, making it easy to integrate into your design projects.

Halfmoon by Reve Art is worth it.

I have been writing more recently as part of my marketing initiative. Thought I'd do a demo of a popular AI image model, and I am astonished at the quality of images with 1 shot-prompting.

here are my 3 evaluations

Create a hyper realistic sunset of Santorini

This actually is quite realistic. 8/10 for sure. ( the neighborhood is called Imerovigli)

next up:

An astronaut riding a horse on the moon

finally a more practical test:

A logo of my company called Auspicious but just use the AU and create a reference to the element gold because AU is short for the element gold in the periodic table make it minimalistic

I am impressed.

Here's a link to the YT demo : https://youtu.be/O2gFLTKP1RQ

Positive Feedback = Testimonials

Every products starts at 0, but going from 0->1 is where entrepreneurs show their skill.

To get your first client, you need to convey trust.

Assuming word of mouth hasn't picked up yet...testimonials are the solution, right?

Since user feedback has a positive + negative aspect to it, why not use the positive feedback as testimonials?

That's what I did.

Now all listed products are eligible for :

  • reviews
  • backlinks
  • testimonials.

I write about it in more detail here : https://www.realreview.space/blog/how-to-get-testimonials-for-your-saas-in-3-simple-steps

How to save money using Perplexity AI

I have had proven success in finding discount coupons and grants via Perplexity. Read below for the breakdown. Proof is in the video at the bottom!

Finding Discount Codes with Perplexity AI

Perplexity AI excels at finding current discount codes for various services. Here's how to use it effectively:

  1. Visit Perplexity AI: Go to perplexity.ai and create an account if you don't already have one.
  2. Formulate a Specific Query: Instead of asking general questions, be specific. For example:
  • "What are the current working discount codes for Squarespace?"
  • "Find me the best discount for [service name] in March 2025"
  1. Verify the Results: Always test the discount codes provided by Perplexity AI, as some may have expired or have specific conditions.
  2. Ask for Alternatives: If a discount code doesn't work, ask Perplexity AI for alternatives or to search for more recent codes.
Discovering Startup Credits and Resources

Perplexity AI is particularly valuable for founders looking to maximize their startup's resources:

  1. Find Cloud Credits: Ask Perplexity AI about available cloud credits for startups. For example:
  • "What AWS credits are available for early-stage startups?"
  • "How can a new startup get free Google Cloud credits?"

Building a minimalist user feedback collection tool

Hi everyone,

Glad to be joining this well designed space.

Bit about me

  • indie since 2023
  • chemical engineer by training (former bioengineer)
  • polyglot -> inspiration behind a half-dead language learning saas (Llanai)

Currently building RealReview.Space to give makers exposure to experts in their niche through a minimalist user feedback system.

  1. Anyone can submit a product and get either 5 or 10 pieces of feedback.
  2. Each feedback is signed off with the reviewer's name and do-follow product url.
  3. The product url is tied to a certain niche(s), which then increases the quality of the backlink by the crawler.

I handpick most reviewers, based on the quality of their work.

Tech Stack

  • NextJS (Typescript)
  • shadcn/ui
  • Supabase
  • Resend
  • Stripe
  • Vercel
  • Windsurf (my copilot)
