I built an AI powered alternative to Webflow and Framer

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a side project I've been working on that I think could be really useful for a lot of people, especially those in the web development and no-code space. As a developer with over five years of experience, I've done my fair share of freelance web development projects. Initially, I always coded everything from scratch, but as I took on more projects simultaneously, I started using Webflow to save time. While Webflow was helpful, I often found myself wishing for a faster way to set up a website – something that would allow me to start with a template and then…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a side project I've been working on that I think could be really useful for a lot of people, especially those in the web development and no-code space. As a developer with over five years of experience, I've done my fair share of freelance web development projects. Initially, I always coded everything from scratch, but as I took on more projects simultaneously, I started using Webflow to save time. While Webflow was helpful, I often found myself wishing for a faster way to set up a website – something that would allow me to start with a template and then easily customize it. The problem with most templates is that they're pretty generic, which is why I decided to build a tool that uses AI to generate websites tailored specifically to a business, with SEO and conversion in mind. Here's how it works: you input details about a business, and the AI generates a website that's optimized for that particular business. This helps you go from 0 to 1 quickly, and from there, you can tweak the result to your satisfaction. Not only does this save a ton of time and effort, but the copy is also optimized and highly relevant. I've been using this tool for a while now, and it's made a big difference in my workflow. I thought others might find it helpful too, so I decided to make it available at https://www.instawebai.com . If you're looking for a way to streamline your web development process or create custom websites more efficiently, definitely check it out and let me know what you think. I'm always looking for feedback and ways to improve the tool. I know there are a lot of big players in the no-code space, but I really believe this tool offers something unique and valuable. It's been a game-changer for me, and I hope it can be helpful for others too. Feel free to share it with anyone you think might benefit from it. Thanks for letting me share my side project with you!

    Hey everyone! I'm really excited to share a side project I've been pouring my heart into lately. As a developer with over five years of experience, I've taken on my fair share of freelance web development projects. In the beginning, I always coded everything from scratch, but as I juggled more projects simultaneously, I started using Webflow to save time. While Webflow was definitely a lifesaver, I couldn't help but wish for an even faster way to set up a website – something that would allow me to start with a template and then easily customize it to my heart's content. The problem with most…

    I built an AI-powered website builder–no code required2024 · aiwebsitebuilder.tech · ▲7

    Hi HN, I’ve been working on an AI-powered website builder that allows anyone to create a fully functional website in just a few minutes. No coding, no design skills—just a simple, intuitive process with AI handling the heavy lifting. Here’s what you can do with it: • Create a website by entering a name, description, and subdomain. • Use AI to design the site, customize content, and edit sections with simple prompts. • Preview, tweak, and publish your website live instantly. • Download the code for full flexibility if you want to self-host or integrate. It’s still an MVP, and I’ve got lots of…

    Scene-AI powered all-in-one web design workspace2024 · scene.io · ▲7

    Hey everyone! Excited to share Scene with you! We spent hours investigating the intricacies of how people create websites. We focussed primarily on collaboration: what it looks like when teammates with different areas of expertise work together to build a site. We did a deep dive into how designers and marketers work today, and how they envision working in the future. AI will be a big part of that future. But AI is not here to replace the web design process. We know designers don't fully trust creations made entirely by AI—and why should they? Instead, AI is here to lend a helping hand. It…

    I launched my first solo side project2011 · ▲14

    Sysadmin is my bread and butter, but I taught myself PHP and have been coding on and off for the past 6 years. I've worked on numerous freelance gigs, but mainly internal apps that I use for my real job. I worked on this project (on and off) for the past year and I'm happy to finally release it to the public. Even if it doesn't succeed, I'm happy that I was able to "scratch an itch" I've had for the past couple of years. I wanted to make something and prove to myself that I can program. I'm not the greatest, but I'm proud of what I've achieved. http://www.ikeepm.com

    I dropped to part-time work to develop a Design Copilot for developers2024 · old.reddit.com · ▲6

    Hey HN! I develop browser extensions, I suck at web design, and I've been exploring AI/LLMs. With my new found free-time since dropping work hours, I've developed a Design Copilot browser extension [0]. It does what it says on the tin - you choose a part of your website and the tool gives you instant expert design feedback - "change this font to that, add this much whitespace, use brighter colours .... etc" The tool is completely 100% free to use, its powered by bringing your own AI API Key, and the current LLM it uses is Google Gemini 1.5 Pro. I've yet to hit the free rate-limit and I…

    I built an idea to video app2024 · frameloop.ai · ▲8

    Frameloop is an AI-powered video creation and automation tool, that turns ideas into publishable videos within seconds. I've been working on this for past 4 months now, and have few paying customers as well. Most of them are individual creators, and about 20% are businesses. I'd like to focus more on business users going forwards, and am building branded video features for businesses. There are many other tools at this point, but my focus has been to focus on great UX, and giving users a really good first draft, which is easily editable. And I think that focus is what differentiates us. Try…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
