Even beyond the engineering there are 100 other things to do.

I launched a vibe coded product a few months ago. I spent the majority of my time

- making sure the copy / presentation was effective on product website

- getting signing certificates (this part SUCKS and is expensive)

- managing release version binaries without a CDN (stupid)

- setting up LLC, website, domain, email, google search indexing, etc, etc

Agreed. However, I just recently "launched" a side project and Cloudflare made a lot of the stuff you mentioned easier. I also found that using AI helped with setting up my LLC when I had questions.

Getting legal advice from AI is certainly an option you can take.

Legal advice is maybe the worst thing to get from an LLM.

[ryandrake]

Exactly. The "writing code" part is literally the easiest part of building a software business. And that was even before LLM assisted coding. Now it's pretty much trivial to just spew slop code until something works. The hard parts are still: making the right thing, making it good, getting feedback and idea validation, and the really hard part is turning it into a business.
