So you can just debug it as always. I guess this product is for someone that COULD make the app they’re generating, but chooses not to. Rather they want an app, that they then only have to refactor.
We're embracing copy-and-paste with the product rather than increasing abstraction. The tool provides the HTML or React code for building the generated UI. The way you actually use it, is by copy-pasting it into your app. From that moment on your workflow and specially debugging workflow is exactly as before. The tool just writes the first 100 lines of code to get you started with a great UI.
In theory, you'd save a bunch of time and then use that extra time to add more polish to the product. But in practice, what you'd actually be doing is reading someone else's (or something else's) code, and people who want to rely on AI are not the same people who have the stomach to do that.
So they're either going to (a) abandon the generated code and write their own, in which case, what was the point to begin with? Or (b) they're going to just say "fuck it" and push the generated code to prod.
Neither of those are good outcomes.
Jokes aside, I think it’s an interesting use of generative AI.
