#12Interesting. I like that better developer tooling is coming out. That said, this particular tool seems like it's trying to be very hand-holdy, maybe not targeting developers? For developers Claude Dev seems like a more functional equivalent: https://github.com/saoudrizwan/claude-dev
Definitely look into cursor if you like Claude dev. It isn't apples to apples, but their chat mode is very similar.

#13I've been using AI models to do frontend design and candidly this doesn't hold a candle to just working directly with the base models. With the base models you can ask: Hey, make me 5 designs that fit xyz requirements and it will go to work. If you already know front end design, you can take that up a level and pass it an emmet abbreviation of the rough code you want and say only use tailwind colors of sky, zinc, and…
I'm not really sure what you mean by "base models?"

#15How about Svelte 5 with runes mode? One of the biggest challenges I've encountered so far while working on my SvelteKit with Svelte 5 codebase is that all frontier models struggle to understand differences between major versions of languages and frameworks, leading to a lot of annoying hallucinations. They're fantastic at writing code, but the last mile of figuring out how to fix issues for incorrect APIs or syntax b…
That's because they don't "understand" any of it. I think the interesting space here is in getting the machinery around the model to correct the output before returning it to users, which is the sort of space I'm assuming this app plays it.

#16I asked for an 'interactive particle simulation' and got a big gray rectangle. Then I clicked regenerate and the page crashed. To me it's not clear how I would debug the component, I can ask for modifications but not like add log statements, inspect variables, and give feedback on errors.
Welcome to the future!

I work around that (with limited success) by prepending the latest docs (migration guides, how-tos) into the conversation. gpt-4o picks that up perfectly

Looks like it's not open source

They're likely referring to using the large language models (GPT, Claude, etc.) through their primary interfaces, because you get more control by interacting with the LLM directly.
