Over the past few days, I was building my ‘totally unique, incredibly useful’ app for vibe coders and experts and was almost done with it.
Then I opened Base44's workspace and discovered something painfully familiar. 😂
Expert discovery, project tools, support workflows... basically a huge part of what I'd been building.
But I had a few extra ideas in mind:
- Automatically turning detected issues into actionable support tickets.
- Matching each ticket with available experts based on their skills and rates.
- Keeping communication, task status, and progress tracking inside each simple ticket.
- Handling payments through an internal token system, with funds held until the work is completed and approved.
The idea was to make the whole process seamless: find a problem → find an expert → get it fixed → approve the work → release the payment.
But honestly, these features probably make more sense as an extension of an existing platform than as a whole new web app.
So, @Base44, maybe there's a feature idea here for you? 👀
Moral of the story: do your competitor research BEFORE you build the entire thing. Don't be like me. 😅
What if a hotel website could do more than just take bookings?
For the #Base44Challenge, I transformed the digital experience of Locanda Boutique Hotel, a real boutique hotel in Germany, into a modern, fully responsive hospitality platform.
✨ Standout Features
🏨 Seamless room discovery and bookings
🤖 AI Concierge for personalised recommendations, itinerary planning, and booking assistance
✈️ Airport transfers, spa treatments, restaurant reservations, and local experiences
👤 Personalised guest dashboard for managing reservations
⚡ Automated booking confirmations and check-in reminders
💎 Smart upsells to unlock additional revenue opportunities
⭐ Automated post-stay review requests and guest engagement
The vision? A hotel experience that feels premium before guests even arrive, while intelligent automation helps staff work smarter behind the scenes.
Built with @Base44. ✨
🚀 Explore the experience and tell me what stands out to you most! If you were running a boutique hotel, which of these features would make the biggest difference to your business?
seen so many matcha cafes lately that I wanted to see the anatomy of one 💚
so I'm building one. this is the first prototype.
it's a matcha bar, where the drawing is your order tracker. your cup moves through the bar, station by station, as the barista makes it: sift, pour, whisk, milk or ice, the window. I wanted the wait to be the best part.
what you're seeing is just the design. the full submission will be a whole website for a matcha cafe, built on Base44: you order your matcha online, your order lands straight on the barista's screen, every tap there moves your cup along, and an email tells you when it's ready at the window.
coming later these days.
