Let’s use Cursor to make a Perplexity clone in 8min. All we need is OpenAI + Exa. In this video the AI takes me from zero to complete app in <14 quick interactions. Building has never been easier.

This weekend on we’re going to be teaching you how to build a production grade version of this project. Complete with ui, database, auth, payments, and deployment. Our “Building Your 1st App” sections wrap up tonight as well - great way to learn to code!

Oh shoot here’s how to do it in 0min

so easy! I built this automation to automatically sort the emails in my inbox based on content in around 20 mins. It now makes sense from a cost/benefit standpoint to build all those little things that can help you!

This is great! Are you new to coding or experienced?

If AI makes building apps this simple, it’s not just tech. it’s the future of rapid innovation and accessibility.

@dorian_omi Totally agree with this

In <8 min I built a basic Airbnb app using Cursor. I use Cursor Projects to scaffold out snippets that I can use anytime I need new features. Stop overthinking it and let the AI work for you. This is next level building.

I use AI to build mobile apps. Built a React Native chat app during my Twitch livestream two months ago, leveraging Cursor, OpenAI, and Expo. I demonstrated how to build a mobile app from scratch using AI, integrating OpenAI APIs to power the chat completion feature. Source code is in my github Full livestream replay here (6 hours) Cursor OpenAI Expo

Let’s build an AI Customer Support Agent with Cursor in <20 minutes. We’ll use OpenAI + Slack to allow users to chat with an AI that sends tickets to the correct Slack channels. Watch me use Cursor Composer to write 95% of the code just by talking to it. Full code link below.

We built this custom app to dial in all the Cash App Wand interactions. Pre AI this would’ve been a giant Slack essay accompanied by a completely unrealistic After Effects mp4. Now we just build it and share the GitHub.

Hermes Agent now has a desktop app! I made a quick video showing how easy it is to install, set up, and get to work! It perfectly synced with my existing agent, or you can use it to make a new one. Plus, a quick tour of the features! It's never been easier to start with Hermes!

Met a 14 year old kid making $42,000/month by building apps with AI. He ships a single app in just 30 minutes. He has never written a line of code in his life. I asked him how he does this. He sent me a 30 minute video that was never supposed to get out. Andrew Ng's masterclass on building apps with AI. The exact prompt formula that ships any working app in 30 minutes. Halfway through, I realized building apps has been embarrassingly simple with AI agents. Bookmark this. Best 25 minutes you will spend this weekend.
