I launched an app 3 months ago called Wisp: Wishlist and Gift Registry that I vibe coded.

Wisp allows you to store all the gifts you want to buy yourself or you want others to buy for you. You can share your list with anyone and you'll get notified when someone buys something from your list. There's even analytics for your list so you can see how many people view your list, and more.

I spent the last 3 months really enhancing the app but the main issue was that over the course of those 3 months I didn't get a ton of new users.

If you don't have any users how can you make any money?

So I spent the first two weeks of April focusing on improving Wisps App Store Search Optimization.

I used App Figures & Astro to research some keywords. I then opened up Claude, created a skill that focused on improving App Store Search optimization for apps and then I asked Claude if the keywords I researched were the best choices.

Turns out I suck at researching lol

Claude replaced 90% of the keywords I came up with and it also came up with a new name, subtitle and description for Wisp too.

I submitted an update to Wisp in mid April and saw a big uptick in users the last two weeks of the month.

This momentum carried into the first week of May where Wisp made its first sale!

If you have any App Store search optimization questions please drop them below happy to help!

You can check out Wisp here if you were interested.

Hey everyone!

My name is AJ, I've been designing and building apps for over 8 years. I would call myself more of a designer than a developer but I do understand a lot of code.

My issue has always been writing the sufficient code.

So when Vibe Coding was invented I jumped on it. It felt like a match in heaven, someone that can code for me while I focus on what I love the most, design.

This past year I went all in on Vibe Coding, I ended up launching 5 apps in the App Store and I have a couple of more I'm going to be launching here soon!

So with that being said, I wanted to share with you all the tech stack I've used to generate over 50k+ users across all my apps.

Tech stack:
Language: SwiftUI / Swift
Data model / Storage: Core Data + CloudKit

I use Codex to code my apps and I must say it has a ton of Swift/SwiftUI knowledge and the best part is it codes in Xcode for me so I don't have to copy & paste anything.

Not only that, it can also set up my Core Data & CloudKit for me. All I need to do is add the Core Data Model to my project, create the CloudKit container and then tell it my data model.

Codex will do the rest.

Not only is this super quick, it's also super cheap. I don't have any server costs because all the data stored in my apps are stored locally on the users devices.

Now I don't recommend this Tech Stack if you're app is working with heavier data like a social media app for example, but for the apps I've built they're super light weight.

I hope this helps others build quicker and more efficiently!
