Your plot is mid. [Music] Because you're not farming enough lore. We're making an app to fix that. Every day, someone in your friend group gets picked.
Speaker A
You've got 24 hours to vlog it all. Today, we talk about one of the most important parts of a consumer app: onboarding. Previously, when you downloaded Vlog It, it would just take you to a simple sign-up screen. But this is not
Speaker A
good practice. The best apps always have a clean onboarding, showing you what the app is and how to use it. So I decided to use Cursor to revamp our entire onboarding process. But instead of sitting at my laptop wiring all that
Speaker A
together manually, I decided to spin up a Cursor cloud agent. Cloud agents [music] run entirely in the background.
Speaker A
No IDE open, no babysitting. You describe the task and the agent goes off, reads your code base, makes the changes, and creates a pull request. So I described what I wanted, a new onboarding [music] flow, and I even gave
Speaker A
it screenshots of other app onboardings like BeReal for inspiration. And it worked fast. It built a beautiful onboarding flow and gave me a clean PR ready for review. This agent working in the background allows me to focus on
Speaker A
marketing since we're getting ready to launch soon, which is this month. So follow me. And comment link for early access to Vlog [music] It and a god I'm using Cursor.
