How to launch your MVP in a weekend without getting stuck in configuration hell.( + Black Friday Deal 🚀)

The Problem: The “First Weekend” Trap

We’ve all been there.

You have a great idea for a side project on a Friday night. You’re pumped. You open your terminal:

npx create-next-app@latest my-awesome-idea

Then the questions start:

TypeScript? (Yes)

ESLint? (Yes)

Tailwind CSS? (Yes)

App Router? (Yes)

Two hours later, you’re still:

configuring Shadcn UI components

fighting with auth providers

setting up your database schema

trying to remember how you like to structure your API routes

You still haven’t written a single line of code for your actual idea.

By Sunday night, you’re exhausted and sitting on a half-configured repo you’ll probably never touch again.

That’s the “First Weekend” trap, and it kills more side projects than anything else.

The Idea: What if you could just prompt it?

I built Synoppy because I was sick of this cycle.

Most AI coding tools today (Copilot, Cursor, etc.) are amazing at auto-completing functions or writing small snippets…

…but they don’t own the whole project. You still have to glue everything together.

Synoppy is different. It’s an AI agent that behaves like a junior full-stack developer.

You give it a high-level prompt, and it scaffolds a complete, running application.

Instead of writing config files, you write something like:

“Build a landing page for a SaaS that sells coffee subscriptions.
It needs a pricing section with 3 tiers, a testimonial grid, an FAQ accordion, and a footer.
Use a modern, dark theme with orange accents.”

In about ~60 seconds, Synoppy spins up a live sandbox with:

✅ A Next.js 14 (App Router) project structure

✅ Shadcn UI installed and wired up

✅ Tailwind CSS classes applied for the dark/orange theme

✅ Clean, component-based code you can actually read and edit

It doesn’t just give you code blocks to copy-paste.

It gives you a running app.

Iteration Is King

The first prompt is rarely perfect, so Synoppy is built around iteration.

Once the initial app is generated, you keep talking to it:

“Change the hero headline to something punchier.”

“Add a Sign up button in the navbar that links to /signup.”

“Make the pricing cards pop more on hover.”

Synoppy remembers the context of your project and edits it intelligently instead of dumping new code every time.

You stay in “product thinking” mode instead of “where did I put that component?” mode.

Free Plan: More Room to Play

Even if you’re not ready to pay, I still want builders to be able to experiment properly.

During launch + Black Friday, the Free plan now includes 20 credits (up from 10), so you can push more ideas all the way into running sandboxes before you ever upgrade.

Launch Week + Black Friday = A Pretty Wild Deal 🤯

We literally just launched Synoppy last week.

We’re brand new — and I want to see what devs, indie hackers, and builders actually ship when they don’t get stuck in boilerplate hell.

So for Black Friday week, we’re doing something a bit aggressive:

🖤 50% OFF all Synoppy Plus plans

Example for the Plus 100 yearly plan:

Was: $228 / year

Now: $114 / year

That’s about $9.50 / month

If you’d rather just test the waters:

Plus 100 monthly is $11.50 for the first month with the discount.

Basically: if Synoppy saves you even one “lost” weekend of config, it’s already paid for itself.

You can grab the deal here:

— discount is auto-applied, or use code BLACKFRIDAY at checkout.

I’ll Be in the Comments

I’m hanging out in the comments today:

Ask me how it works under the hood

Tell me what kind of apps you’d try to build

Or just roast my landing page, pricing, or UX — I can take it 😅

If this resonates with you, I’d love to see what you end up building.

Happy shipping. 🛠️
