Show HN: Chat Box – Fabrice Bellard's ts_server with ChatGPT-generated front end

[ymosy]

This is a project I hacked together in an evening. I just thought I'd share the results with others because I was really impressed by the final product given the time budget and my lack of experience in frontend world. I can definitely say that it would take me multiple days to achieve the same level of readiness in case of the usual read docs/books/google approach.

To me it feels like a paradigm shift in terms of being able to try to kickstart new projects from a concept to idea with the help of ChatGPT in cases when, for example, you don't have enough knowledge in a certain domain for your PoC.

Admittedly, given the same do-it-quick approach, certain aspects of this project could be re-implemented entirely without ChatGPT just googling for solutions to pretty much solved problems. But to me it feels like the difference is in the speed with which you acquire a relatively stable and tested solution for the problem you're describing in a prompt in case of ChatGPT vs Google searches for various common solutions for the underlying building blocks of your general idea.
