Could I build this in 10 hours without an LLM having no experience with cloudflare workers and typescript? Probably not.

Look, maybe I'm naive but the "technical debt" this approach generates is appalling. Someone's going to have to shave that yak or you'll trip over it on your way to market.

Whatever happened to "write code like it'll be maintained by an axe murderer?"[0]

What if the maintainer is assumed to be an LLM?
The jury's still out on that one.

Personally, I don't think the GUI's yet been invented which can reliably wrangle LLMs to those ends.
