I’m Not A Developer. I Built An Ai App Anyway.

A few months ago, I wouldn’t have called myself a developer.

I was more on the business side — Web3, fintech, building ideas, not really writing code

but lately something changed

With AI, I started actually building things myself
not perfectly, not clean… but real products

Right now I’m working on an AI meal planning app (FamilyPlate.ai)

The idea started super simple:
help my (and other) families stop asking “what should we eat today?” every day… because honestly it creates way too many small debates ????

but the real problem is something else

everyone wants something different

and suddenly dinner becomes this small daily negotiation

so now I’m trying to solve it by turning it into a weekly plan that everyone actually agrees on — with simple voting

honestly… building it has been messy

things break
prompts don’t work
logic gets weird
sometimes I fix one thing and break two others

but now — I’m actually proud it works
and I even got my first paid customers (people I don’t know)

and that’s the crazy part

you don’t need to be a “perfect dev” anymore to start building

you just need to:

understand the problem
keep iterating
and not quit when things get confusing

still figuring things out tbh

but I feel like this shift is huge

curious — how many of you are building with AI without a traditional dev background?
