Should AI tools write feature flags for you?
We launched Bucket MCP last week and got featured in The Leaderboard. @aaronoleary put it elegantly: Whether you're using @Cursor, @Augment Code, or @Windsurf, you can just tell it what you want flagged, and the MCP server handles it. So instead of context-switching to write config files or CLI commands, you just prompt: “flag the download button.” That’s it. I'd love to follow up here and...

Great discussion! I'd add another perspective. It depends on your objective, it depends on your audience too. If you're a developer tool, you may want to launch on a weekend. Take @Zeabur (#1 Product of the Day) or @Trench (#3 Product of the Day) for example. Both launched on a Sunday. Why? Because many developers are developers in and out of work, with hobby projects to experiment with a new...
Would you rather launch on a day packed with products or with as little competition as possible?

Great topic, Alex! From my perspective, you need both qualitative and quantitative data. Qualitative: reach out to your users. Take @Supabase for example. In this AMA session, @rors detailed how they spent a weekend going through over 3,000 developer profiles on GitHub, reaching out to as many as possible to chat with them about their likes and dislikes. "In the early days, there is no...
How do you get early users to give feedback?

Great topic! At @Bucket we all recently experimented with @Cursor — key takeaways here — including our designer @laander Would you suggest using it for both apps and marketing sites? We're currently using @Webflow for bucket.co and as a developer tool, I'd definitely go full-code.
Designers using Cursor, where are you all? 😇

Raycast AI - Which models are you using?
Raycast keeps adding new models every week. I use @Anthropic's Claude 3.7 Sonnet when coding and @OpenAI's o3-mini when speed matters. Curious what works best for the community. What model are you using and why?

Underrated: use feature flags to get feedback and track early adoption. Beyond the qualitative data you get from user calls, you can flag features to collect quantitative data. That's something we're doing constantly at @Bucket — full disclosure: we're a FF provider. We recently rolled out a beta feature and wanted to make sure we get it right before making it GA. We used a requestFeedback...
How do you collect feedback from beta users before your PH launch?

Experimenting with Cursor
At @Bucket, we're always looking for products that can boost productivity and inspire us to build better software. We recently experimented with @Cursor to replace @Github Copilot. Key takeaways Tab completion: Cursor includes a helpful tab completion feature, suggesting refactorings and improvements as you go — huge time saver! Chat: the chat/composer is better than Copilot as it can...

How we use Linear as a GTM team Initiatives: set the main objectives. In the Engineering team, the...

Meow there! Psyched to post @Magic UI on Product Hunt. I stumbled upon this product few months ago, during the Mega Launch Week, thanks to @d4r5c2. David used it for KeyHippo — and the result is stunning. Best part? It's open-source: Star this repo Keep up your great work, @dillionverma!
