day 3/3 of finally open-sourcing my unfinished projects:
START MENU 
A menu in your mac menu bar, and a portal to a world where windows 98 never ended and any app you can imagine exists....
enter a prompt and the computer does the rest. an LLM writes HTML, CSS and JS for an app (and pick from a set of icons). then you run the app! from then on, it's easily accessible from your mac menu bar.
the first pass is rarely perfect, so you can "contact the developer" to grumble about your problems.
if the app crashes, you can even auto-report and get it fixed!
apps themselves can use AI and Applescript, so they can do a lot of cool stuff, like change system settings (yikes!) or generate puzzles (quibi connections?)
Who knew that this week we'd be getting not one but two generative windows 98-style app projects this week? somehow we had the same idea independently...
(Sawyer's is much better than mine, btw! it has a file system!)
There's a small Windows 98-style ui kit in CSS, but i also built one for swiftui. this one is nicer! might split it out and make it a package.
anyway it's available here, and you can download it in releases! (you don't need an api key to use the 4 built-in apps)
@nate this is simultaneously the coolest use of LLMs I have seen yet and also when I see you clicking “allow” on those permission prompts my stomach tries to turn inside out a little
@nate What is this black magic?!?
