Hi Product Hunt 👋
We’re shipping a chrome extension to help you stay on top of your to-dos.
But the backstory has a little twist… This thing was 100% vibe-coded on my second day on the job.
I joined Morgen 3 weeks ago and @david_tedaldi1 (our founder) flew me to Prague for a speedy onboarding.
Like anyone starting a new job, I came in full of ideas.
So on day 2, I shoot my shot. The conversation went something like this:
Me: “Hey David, wouldn’t it be dope to have a Chrome extension to quickly create to-dos, and auto-schedule them in Morgen?”
David: “Tell you what: let’s grab dinner and discuss this. If we’re still hyped after food, we’ll vibe-code it tonight”.
So we grabbed dinner. And we stayed hyped.
The Pivot
There was one problem… connecting the extension to a user’s Morgen account via our API wasn’t possible without help from the devs.
But we weren’t gonna let that ruin our first hackathon, so instead, we tweaked the plan: we’d build it as a standalone free tool that double serves as a lead magnet for Morgen.
If we hit 100 signups, we’d have market validation to build the native integration ASAP.
The build
I started working on the prompt while David sketched some light mockups. Then, we fed it all to Claude Code.
After a few minutes, like a microwave going Ding! when your food is ready, Claude went “Voila!” and delivered a fresh first version of the extension.
And by midnight, we had it: a working Chrome extension built in a couple hours.
The launch
Over the next few days, we tested it, passed Google’s approval, prepped SEO support, designed landing pages, and it went live. We got 23 users on launch day.
3 weeks later, I’m launching it on Product Hunt.
2025 is the first year it’s possible to ideate, build, and launch a working product without coding experience, in a few hours. It’s insane to be in the gist of it.
Now, go and try the extension. And if this story resonates, we’d love to hear your feedback ✌️
Cheers,
Jim Hartung
