I’ve always been a huge fan of Cursor and AI coding agents — they feel like magic when they work. But I’m not a “real” dev in the ApeCoder sense. Every time I wanted to start something new, I’d get stuck on the same stuff:
• setting up the project
• figuring out the right commands
• deploying it somewhere
• debugging when it breaks (and I had no idea why)
So I decided to build something for people like me — Phion is a zero-setup environment that runs on top of Cursor and makes the whole AI coding experience feel seamless and native.
No bash, no git, no config hell. Just open Phion and start building.
Would love your feedback — and if you’re also vibecoding your way through life, I hope this makes the journey a little smoother 💜
Super slick experience — love the “zero-setup” approach. How does Phion handle state between sessions, especially if you’re bouncing between projects? Also, any plans to support frameworks outside of the typical JS stack?
As someone that is a beginner to coding, it's so easy to get stuck at trying to figure out how to set something up to begin with. Love seeing products like this that allow non-technical folks to jump straight in.

@serafimcloud sorry, what is an "ApeCoder"? 🦧

For vibecoders, by vibecoders - one pain less 🔥🔥🔥
window version asap

Very interesting idea and clever integration with Cursor!
I'm launching something similar today too that's like a local-first Lovable https://www.producthunt.com/products/dyad-free-local-vibe-coding-tool
Different execution but I think similar end-goals :)

It looks really cool. Unfortunately I can't try it until its released on Windows
