Who ever wrote this it seems it never built any serious software. Software factories don’t exist and you will put yourself in a corner in a dangerous position

  I’ve built a software factory and am using it to build an open-source alternative to every SaaS. What do you mean it’s not possible? A harness like Pi can be turned into a software factory with the right spec, extensions, skills, and a cron.

    I opened <a href="https://marketplace.openship.org" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.openship.org and tried the "find me a t shirt" example prompt, added one to cart, i clicked once and it was not working, so i clicked a second time and it added two of them, so i realized every interaction was super slow. Congratulations for your slop automated platform, and good luck having customers

    Holy moly every UI interaction on the cart is getting half a second to more than a second -.-'. Selecting a radio option freezes the ui for 0.5s. This is more than a vibe coded app
