Hi HN, Went to the Luma ai hackathon. Met a guy who vibe coded a legit app with 0 coding experience - I taught him shortcuts which was quite fun to see him 10x his Cursor productivity. Anyway, this inspired me to vibe code something, so I made this short story generator for my nephew. It takes a profile image, gpt-image-1's it into an avatar. Yes I know what you are thinking, privacy! The profile image part is completely optional - you can upload pretty much any image you'd like, already avatar-ed images work great. Then you can create stories with the avatar as the main character in all the story images. Stories teach a lesson and moral, and are age appropriate. Also threw in some great narration voices since I use Elevenlabs all the time. Nephew's feedback is overwhelmingly positive, but he is 1.2 years old so... Hoping to get feedback from folks here as well. Stats for nerds: Built with: React Native Expo (first time using Expo - props to them for coming so far) Supabase (first time as well - love it) Elevenlabs gpt-image-1 (i tried over 5 different api's for i2i and this one is the best BY FAR) Made with 80% Cursor, 20% by hand Bare bones story generator MVP was done in an afternoon, more features added over 1.5 months like i2i, narration, auth, iap, etc. First 2 stories are free (24 images), and I put 250 bucks into openai, so it should last a few days. Openai image rate limits are kinda low for my tier, so some images might not generate - if this happens, please let me know so I can add mo money to upgrade my tier. If you encounter any issues or find a bug or have suggestions, please let me know.
