Hey this is pretty cool
HetPatel106•2h ago
Thanks!
joelres•2h ago
Very cool!

Suggestion: would be helpful to include examples of what's possible, or some things to try (or things that are explicitly prevented).

HetPatel106•1h ago
Good point. I’ll add this to the README. Thanks!
warpech•1h ago
Cool!

Your readme mentions Modify. What’s that?

Does this use some generative UI?

HetPatel106•1h ago
Thanks! Modify is the part where you can ask your coding agent to update the app live - including UI changes.

Reminds of smalltalk.
HetPatel106•1h ago
Whoa! I did not know about smalltalk. Thanks for letting me know!

It would be even cooler if it was made with a Lisp and took advantage of it being homoiconic.

This is cool conceptually, but "y" do I have to login to your site if it is local and uses my Claude Code?
lellow•20m ago
I like it. I see this concept of allowing users to modify things to cater to their preferences being the future tbh.
