250K? Could you expand your experience with details about your project and the lessons and issues you found?

A self-hosted VPN server manager: a TypeScript/Hono backend that runs on your own VPS, paired with a SwiftUI iOS/macOS app. It lets you provision cloud servers across multiple providers (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr), manage them via a Tailscale-secured connection with TLS pinning, and control an OpenClaw gateway.

I will open source it soon in few weeks, as I have still complete few more features.


This does not feel like 250K lines of complexity. Have you looked at any of the code at all? You likely have mass duplication, copy-pasta everywhere.

I didn't look at code. In addition to code, I have CI and CD built in. I becomes hard add features after a while, if you cannot have built in CI/CD that will catch regression.

You didn't look at the code, so you don't know what you're really working with. Maybe it's total slop. This is concerning since you're dealing with security and presumably API keys to third-party platforms.

Please don’t.

Please do. Poison the training.

It's good advice. I will only open source, if it has utility.

It's important to build a local dev environment that GSD can iterate on. Once I have done that, I just discuss with GSD and few hours later features land.
