Hi HN,

Last weekend, I wondered whether I could replace our clunky contact form with a WhatsApp chat. Forty-eight hours (and a lot of Claude Code prompts) later, OWA.link was live.

Stack (all edge-deployable): Cloudflare Workers KV for storage/DB React app link generator (most of the UI and functionality was generated by Claude Code). SimpleAnalytics was used for anonymous click stats.

Here's what you can test:

Try this link: https://owa.link/book-meeting

Click and answer to see WhatsApp open with a pre-filled message that includes your form data.

Alternatively, try this simplified version: https://openwa.link/plDumo

It's completely free if you're OK with sharing your analytics data (everyone can add "+" to the end of links to see the number of clicks, like bit.ly does).

Why share? I'm curious to know if this edge-only approach makes sense in the long term.

Is the AI actually useful? This is my first project that has been created entirely by AI (front end, back end, help guide and translations), and I think it's pretty awesome.

All feedback (technical, UX and business) is welcome! If people find it valuable, I’ll clean up the code and open-source the Worker next week so you can host it yourself.

Thanks for your attention, and happy hacking! :)
