Can I vibe code Umami Cloud?
Privacy-friendly, cookie-free website analytics.
Umami is already open source, so 'can you vibe code it' is really 'can you self-host and lightly customize it' — and yes. Even a from-scratch personal analytics tool (a tracking pixel, an events table, a dashboard) is a weekend build. The hosted plan sells you not-running-a-database, which is a real but small convenience.
Build a privacy-friendly, cookie-free web analytics tool for my own sites (a lightweight Plausible/Umami alternative). Part one: a tiny <1KB tracking script I embed that sends a pageview beacon (url, referrer, screen size, no cookies, no PII). Part two: an ingest API that writes events to a database. Part three: a password-protected dashboard with unique visitors, pageviews, top pages, top referrers, and a 30-day trend chart, filterable by date range. Respect Do Not Track, hash IPs for daily-unique counts without storing them, and make it deployable to Vercel with a hosted Postgres.
A tiny tracking script plus an events table and a dashboard showing pageviews, top pages, and referrers — cookie-free.

- Their prebuilt reports; you build the charts you want
Not everyone wants to babysit a database and a cron job — the cloud plan is convenience insurance, and for agencies the multi-site dashboard saves real time.
A prompt is the first move, not the whole game. Course 01 teaches you to take a prompt like this one to a shipped, working app — reviewing, correcting, and steering the agent the whole way.
