Cool apps, Colin! Have also enjoyed it a lot for quickly building smaller, personalized apps.

Very cool. Started playing around with the free tier's of both Lovable and Cursor. You've now given me the gumption I need to trudge on. Keep up the great work!

Thanks Jack! Depends on the context -- usually I use Cursor when Im building something I plan to ship for others to use. Replit / Bolt for quick tests or ideas.

Great read - thanks for sharing concrete examples!

Two questions:

1) What motivated you to move from Lovable to Cursor after 70% for Autolive.ai ? Bdw, Autolive.ai seems useful product - perhaps you can commercialize it!

2) Curious how you evaluated Railway(your preferred tool) vs Vercel for deployment . Trying to learn more here, since each seems to have different strengths.

Cursor is better at making small, specific changes. Usually as I near the end of a project, I spend more time fixing bugs and making tweaks than adding new features

Railway has support for all types of deploys (db, server, etc) without using 3rd party applications. I find it just simplifies the stack!
