Hey Hackernews,

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!)
