Figma helped me iterate quickly on layout, typography, and visual hierarchy before writing code. It’s where the minimalist look and calm tone came together which includes the ProductHunt tiles. Being able to move fast without losing design intent was key for this project.
Netlify makes it easy to ship and iterate without adding backend complexity. It’s reliable, fast by default, and lets me focus on the product instead of infrastructure. For a privacy-first site with no accounts or state, it’s a great fit.
I chose Gemini 2.5 Flash because it’s fast, cost-efficient, and predictable at scale. It delivers consistent visual outputs without heavy latency, which matters for a simple, real-time experience like this. It also lets me keep the system lightweight without overengineering.
.This sounds like an awesome way to keep users engaged and increase loyalty! I'm definitely interested in giving it a try and seeing how it helps my business grow!
