I think it's less about the code and more about the functionality. I didn't guide the llm to add features etc. I just told it don't stop until it's feature complete. Even 2 months ago I'd have to hand hold it a lot with UX and detailed features.
You can try mana, curious how it compares to your previous experiences. You can sign up here if you like: https://mana.space/invite/MANA-NPNV
Very curious if you try it and tell us how far it is from real figma
Currently our file system is a relational db which makes it more web-native for webapps. but fully local can be doable too.
A friend of mine and I have been thinking building a general purpose environment for GPT so it can generate code on the fly and run it. Imagine if you could have JS frontend and Pyodide-based Python backend in a notebook-like environment. You have python libraries running in the browser, react, can call any API, navigate the web, ... . And given the current code-gen quality, it works with no debugging most of the time. This way normal users can generate micro-tools for their use-cases on the fly.
We have been surprised by how generally capable it is. From making simple calculators to handling complex workflows like doing OCR on data and syncing it with firebase. It's not quite ready for a public release but we have a few videos and would love to know what you think!
Here are some examples: (note that other than passing some api keys, we have done no hardcoding what so ever, it's SO GENERAL!)

We also have a waitlist and will start onboarding people in 2 weeks. If you are interested sign up here: https://booknote.cloud
It can help you with finding any content on the web, ordering food on doordash, shopping on amazon, post on social media like Twitter, Linkedin & Messenger, fill out any forms, give shopping opinions. Basically any task you can imagine.
You just input your goal and it controls the browser to achieve it. We didn't tune it for any specific task so your imagination is the limit of what it can do. And it generalizes to tasks much better than we expected!
It was inspired by https://github.com/nat/natbot/blob/main/natbot.py. We made it into an extension, switched to ChatGPT and improved prompting and parsing significantly.
Sign up and we will send you the extension as soon as we are done with final polishes! https://multion.ai
