Creating a full-fledged application used to be a complex, time-consuming process requiring in-depth development skills and design expertise. However, modern tools and streamlined workflows have revolutionized the app development process. Here’s a review of how I quickly built a fully functional app, including registration, user profiles, private pages, and modification capabilities, in just a few hours — without writing a single line of code.First, the basic idea of ​​the application

My idea was a program to send messages secretly and create a wall for conversation.

Step 1: Laying the Foundation with ChatGPT
To kickstart the project, I outlined the idea and its requirements to ChatGPT. It provided a detailed plan, including:

Feature requirements.
Database schemas.
Suggestions for backend services (e.g., Supabase for database management).
UI/UX design elements tailored for the app.
This step provided clarity and direction for the next stages of development.

ChatGPT will give you all the requirements for your program like this

The Concept: “Anonymous Note” App
The idea was to create a platform for sending and receiving anonymous messages through a unique URL. Here’s a breakdown of its core functionality:

User Signup and Profile Creation
Users sign up with their email or username.
Upon registration, they receive a personalized URL (e.g., https://secretmessage.app/user/{username}).

1. Anonymous Messaging

Anyone with the URL can send an anonymous message without signing up.
A simple form is provided for message submission.

1. Message Display and Management

Messages are displayed chronologically on the user’s page.
Users can delete, hide, or mark messages as read/unread.

1. Optional Features

Feedback on messages (e.g., anonymous reactions).
Expiring messages that self-delete after a set time.
Content moderation for harmful language.

1. Security and Privacy

Encrypted messages and private URLs for user safety.
Optional two-factor authentication for enhanced account security.
Step 2: Generating a Startup App
Using platforms like GPT Engineer or Bolt, I created the initial app structure. These tools generated:

Boilerplate code.
Project files.
Database schemas linked with Supabase, streamlining backend setup.
The next step is to go to gptengineer.app or bolt.new

Such applications will help you in making the first design for your project with all the requirements and files ready to work. It will also help in making the databases for this application by

Using services such as supabase and connecting them directly to the project and creating the required databases inside them

The Result Of secret messages app
next step use github to clone repo to your github account

now got and download curser app from cursor

How To Use Cursor
use this app to clone your repo from github and open project folder

now keep adding feauture and update ui till you get the final peace you need as first release of your app and dont forget to update and run subabase sqls to keep tracking backend with front end

Step 3: Hosting Code on GitHub
I cloned the generated project repository to my GitHub account for version control and collaboration. This ensured that updates and modifications could be managed efficiently.

now after finished adding features and building your app run this command to install github pages

npm install gh-pages --save-dev

Add deployment scripts to your package.json:

"scripts": {
  "predeploy": "npm run build",
  "deploy": "gh-pages -d dist"
}

Step 4: Enhancing the App with Cursor
The Cursor app provided a powerful environment for refining the project:

Cloned the GitHub repository for local development.
Made iterative changes to features and UI.
Updated database queries in Supabase to keep the backend aligned with frontend functionality.
Step 5: Deploying the App
Deployment was straightforward, leveraging GitHub Pages for hosting:

npm run deploy

This will:

Build your project and generate static files in the dist directory.
Push the contents of the dist folder to the gh-pages branch of your repository.
Access Your Deployed Site
Go to https://.github.io/ to view your deployed site.
Now you have deployed a full app with front and back end fully configured just in minutes

Step 6: Adding Features and Iterating
With the app live, adding features became seamless:

Built new features in Cursor.
Tested functionality locally.
Deployed changes using the same npm run deploy command.
This iterative workflow ensured a smooth update process without downtime.

when ever you need to create or update a feature in your app just use cursor to create it and verify it’s working then test it then just re run the deploy command again and you web app is online running

Step 7: Creating Android and iOS Apps
Using Capacitor by Ionic, I transformed the web app into native mobile applications. Capacitor integrates easily with frameworks like React and Angular, providing access to native device features through JavaScript.

Here’s how to use Capacitor step-by-step:

1. Install Capacitor Prerequisites Node.js installed on your system. Your web app ready (built with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or a framework like React, Angular, or Vue). Steps: Install Capacitor Core Run this in your web app’s root directory:

npm install @capacitor/core @capacitor/cli

Initialize Capacitor Initialize Capacitor with basic project details:

npx cap init

It will ask for the app name and app ID (e.g., com.example.app).

1. Add Native Platforms Android

npx cap add android

iOS

npx cap add ios

1. Build Your Web App Build your web app so Capacitor can serve it in a WebView:

npm run build

Ensure the build output is in the dist/ directory (or configure webDir in capacitor.config.json).

1. Sync Files to Native Platforms Capacitor copies the web assets to the native platforms:

npx cap sync

1. Open the Native Project Android Open the project in Android Studio:

npx cap open android

iOS
Open the project in Xcode:

npx cap open ios

1. Test and Build Native Apps Use Android Studio and Xcode to build, run, and test your app on actual devices or emulators. Customize the native code if needed for platform-specific functionality.
2. Deploy Android: Generate a signed APK/AAB using Android Studio. iOS: Build and submit to the App Store via Xcode. Finally Check Out The app finally created at

The summary
is that we were able to build a simple idea and raise it in a very record time without direct intervention from us or the need to write real code to realize the idea on the ground and make it available to users. Will it be easy for the average user to program in the future and will there be a lot of such applications made at this speed? We are progressing very quickly in achieving that.
