With all of the new AI coding tools coming out, the barrier for entry in the SaaS industry is getting lower. Your time would be much better spent becoming competent with these tools rather than wasting hundreds of hours learning full-stack web development from scratch. At the end of the day, you want to be a software ENGINEER, not a coder. The coding is the work that you make your minions do. You want to be the guy who comes up with a high-value idea, and all you need is to know how to implement it. If you know what it would take to code it up, at that point you can hand it off to the AI. The danger is when you yourself don't know what you want, at which point the AI can't help you.
Some tools that are hot right now in AI coding:
- v0 by Vercel (For Frontend/UI)
- Cursor (AI-integrated Code Editor)
- Replit (Host and Deploy for Free)
- ChatGPT or Claude (So you can ask it how to do something)
- GummySearch (Scan reddit threads for pain points, people asking for solutions, etc.)
Greg Isenberg has a great podcast on YouTube where he's been discussing a lot of these tools and he's even had a couple guys build full web applications live.

You are ready to start building NOW. If you haven't started on your project because you feel like you aren't good enough at coding, you're probably action faking. Just start building, and learn on the job.
