πŸš€ How I Got 1,500+ Users in 7 Days by Turning a Sketch into a Real App

Hey Indie Hackers! πŸ‘‹

Last week I launched MySelpost – a tool that turns hand-drawn UI sketches into actual working websites and apps (no code needed).

Here’s what happened:

πŸ“ I sketched a basic layout of an idea on paper
πŸ“Έ Took a picture of it
βš™οΈ Uploaded it to MySelpost
πŸ’₯ It turned into a real working prototype – clickable and responsive

I posted the prototype in a few communities (including here πŸ™), and boom –
β†’ 1,500+ users in 7 days

Why I Built It:
I was tired of wasting time with design tools or waiting on devs. I wanted a way to go from β€œnapkin sketch” to something real without touching code or Figma.

MySelpost is aimed at:

πŸ’‘ Founders who want to test ideas quickly

🎨 Designers who want to validate flows

πŸ§ͺ Makers building MVPs

πŸ‘©β€πŸ« Students or teachers for quick demos

What You Can Do:
Try it free here: https://myselpost.com
No signup. Just upload a sketch and get a working app.

I’d Love Your Feedback:
What would make this more useful to you as a builder?

What features should I add next?

Would you use it to launch something faster?
