This comment seems short-sighted. Code that can generate a working set of interlinked page elements from natural English? How on earth is that a gimmick? This is incredible. This is the Pong to the Crysis of 25 years from now, when we can describe entire applications into existence. I can't fathom the mindset that dismisses this as a gimmick. Is the first step on every journey meaningless? And this isn't even the fir…
It's only a tiny step above searching Github and copy-pasting. Searching and copy-pasting isn't the hard part of software development. Guaranteeing validity, safety and performance is the hard part. This doesn't get us any closer to the goal. (In fact it's the opposite, a big step back.)
Think of this as a new IDE. Not an end to end CI/CD.
Non-coders can compose React components, vet them, commit to artifact repo for further use/analysis.
Oh yes sure more abstraction is needed “down below” and testing.
Also has much of anything gotten closer to safety? Have you proved much of the code you import as deps is safe all the way down?
And yet... still works.
The clean room, perfect implementation you’re chasing can never exist. Much of this is up to imagination more so than provably correct math.
