Wallety - Spending Tracker

Hey everyone,

Over time, I realized that most people don’t quit expense tracking because they don’t care about money.

They quit because the apps become too complicated, overwhelming, or annoying to use consistently.

That’s the main reason I built Wallety.

A — Answer

Wallety is a simple, private, and easy-to-use spending tracker focused on everyday consistency instead of complexity.

You can:

• track expenses, income, and transfers
• organize money with wallets
• set goals
• view clear spending insights
• use it fully offline

No account required. No data sharing. Everything stays on your device.

B — Better

For many people, existing finance apps can feel overwhelming for simple daily tracking.

With Wallety, the focus is different:

• faster daily input
• cleaner UI
• privacy-first approach
• no account/signup
• lightweight experience
• works offline
• flexible “wallet” concept for organizing money
• setting and tracking goals
• clear insights

The goal isn’t to become a giant finance dashboard.

The goal is to make tracking simple enough that people actually keep using it every day.

C — Cost

Wallety is free to download and try.

Optional premium upgrade:

• Weekly: $1.99
• Yearly: $59.99
• Lifetime: $29.99 one-time purchase (limited-time offer)

I’m trying to choose analytics tools for my micro SaaS and honestly the amount of hype online is making the decision harder.

Every YouTube video, Twitter thread, or blog post feels affiliate-driven, so I’d rather hear from actual founders/builders running real products.

• What are you using today?
• What made you choose it?
• At what stage did you feel you needed “serious” analytics?

Would especially love feedback from solo founders and small teams trying to stay lean.

I’ve been seeing a lot of YouTube videos lately about developers moving from Next.js to TanStack Start. As someone still relatively new to the JS ecosystem, it’s hard for me to tell what’s real technical improvement versus YouTube hype/content monetization.

I’d love to hear from people who actually use these frameworks in production or have serious experience with them.

• What problems with Next.js are pushing people away?
• What does TanStack Start do better in practice?
• Is this mainly a DX trend, performance thing, architecture preference, or just “new shiny tool” energy?
• Would you recommend a beginner/indie developer learn TanStack Start today, or is Next.js still the safer/default choice?

Looking for honest opinions from experienced devs rather than influencer takes.

I’m currently exploring tech stacks for building both web and mobile apps, and the Rails philosophy aligns strongly with my values: end-to-end freedom, ownership, simplicity, and having a complete vision of what we deliver.

For the web side, I honestly found Rails superior by far in terms of developer experience and overall coherence.

On the mobile side, Hotwire Native feels like a huge achievement. I also find it more natural to build two minimal native apps while keeping Rails responsible for most of the business logic and overall product flow.

What I’m wondering about is the offline/local-first aspect.

In many real-world mobile apps, users still need the app to function while offline, even if the backend database remains the central source of truth.

How are experienced Rails developers approaching this with Hotwire Native? Curious to hear how Rails teams are thinking about this in practice.

For people building landing pages for products (micro SaaS, mobile apps, indie products, etc.), what stack/framework are you actually using today with React?

I’ve heard a lot about Astro lately, but I’m curious what people are using in real production landing pages.

Things I care about:

• fast loading
• good SEO
• easy deployment
• simple content updates
• animations/components when needed
• not overkill for a mostly static site

Would love to hear the reasoning and tradeoffs from people shipping real LPs.

What would you recommend as the simplest and most enjoyable way for a 12-year-old to learn JavaScript today?

I’m looking for resources/platforms/projects that are:

• beginner friendly
• interactive
• fun to build with
• not overly academic
• suitable for kids/young teens

The goal is not just learning syntax, but actually enjoying coding while building small things and practicing regularly.

Could be:

• websites
• YouTube channels
• project ideas
• anything that worked well for younger learners

Would love recommendations from people who taught kids or started young themselves.

I’m building a React Native app in the personal finance space, and I’m exploring on-device AI/LLM solutions.

Offline mode is a hard requirement, so I’m specifically looking for libraries/models that can run locally on the device (iOS + Android).

The use case is helping users better understand:

• expenses
• income
• budgets
• spending habits
• financial insights

Examples:

• categorizing transactions
• answering finance-related questions from user data
• generating spending summaries
• detecting unusual spending patterns

I’d love recommendations for:

• React Native compatible libraries
• lightweight local models
• good inference runtimes
• real-world experiences/performance tradeoffs

Curious what people here are using today for on-device AI in RN apps.

I recently posted on r/SaaS asking founders about their tech stacks, and I noticed several Rails developers mentioning a setup using Rails + InertiaJS + React.

That caught my attention.

So I wanted to ask here:
Is using InertiaJS with React becoming a rising trend in the Rails ecosystem, or is it mostly a preference among some indie hackers/solo founders?

Curious to hear from people actually using it in production:

• Why did you choose it?
• What are the biggest advantages/disadvantages?
• Would you recommend it for new Rails projects?

Hey everyone,

I’m an indie developer building mobile apps for iOS and Android.

I help startups, SMBs, founders, and professionals turn ideas into real products — from concept to a fully shipped app on the App Store and Google Play.

What I can help with:

• MVP development
• iOS & Android apps
• UI implementation
• Backend/API integration
• App Store & Play Store publishing
• Fast iteration and long-term improvements

I mainly work with React Native, which allows me to build high-quality cross-platform apps quickly and efficiently.

If you have an app idea you want to bring to life, feel free to reach out. Happy to discuss ideas, validate concepts, or help you launch fast.

I’m a solo indie developer building both mobile and web apps.

From an SEO and long-term branding perspective, I’m wondering what’s the better approach:

• Separate domain for each product
• Subdomain per product (product.mydomain.com)
• Folder under main domain (mydomain.com/product)

My main goal is to grow traffic efficiently while keeping things manageable as a solo builder. Some products may stay small, while others could become standalone brands later.

Would love to hear how SEO people and indie hackers usually approach this, and what tradeoffs I should consider.

Curious what stack people are actually using for their SaaS projects right now.

I keep seeing a lot of different opinions online, but I’m wondering what’s actually being used in production by solo builders / small teams.

If you’ve shipped something recently, what did you end up going with? And would you choose the same stack again?

I’m especially interested in what people used for frontend, backend, auth, payments, and hosting, but even just a general answer is useful.
