Social media

    Can I vibe code Buffer?

    Medium

    Schedule and publish social posts across channels from one queue.

    Core happy path is doable; polish, billing, and edge cases take longer.

    Verdict

    A scheduling MVP for one or two channels is doable. 'Buffer for all social' dies in API access and compliance, not in UI.

    What you can rebuild

    Compose posts, schedule to a queue, and publish to 1-2 channels via APIs (for example LinkedIn and X if keys allow). Calendar view of scheduled content.

    What stays hard

    Every network's API quirks, approval workflows for agencies, analytics depth, and ToS risk when automating Instagram/Facebook.

    Starter prompt

    Build a Buffer-like social scheduler called QueuePost for LinkedIn and X (Twitter). Users connect accounts via OAuth where possible, write posts, schedule date/time, see a queue calendar, and publish automatically via a cron/worker. Stack: Next.js, Tailwind, Supabase, background job runner. Clear composer UI with character counts.

    Follow-up prompt

    Add: media upload (image), first-comment field, post templates, and a weekly analytics snapshot (impressions/likes if the APIs provide them). Document API limitations in the UI.
