A UX designer who built a working product without writing code

I’ve always been on the design side and never really touched code. A few weeks ago, I got curious about what it would take to actually build and ship something on my own.

Instead of learning to code the traditional way, I used Gemini AI as my guide. I asked it everything step by step, from how to build a homepage to how to handle backend data. I ended up learning more than I expected just by asking better questions.

The result is Spot Startups, a simple web directory for discovering new SaaS projects. It’s nothing huge, but seeing something I designed actually work online felt incredible.

Since this is my first real build, I’d love some feedback from devs, anything around structure, usability, or what I could improve technically.
