umussetu··on Launch HN: Marblism (YC W24) – Generate full-stack web apps from a prompt
yes totally agree with you, it's not our audience even if maybe it's not clear from our website. That's why you've got VS code online integrated in the product => it's for developers

not yet! we're gonna add more tech stacks in the future

thanks! true you could use it like that although I find notion and airtable to do a decent jobs if you really just want a todo list or a crm so unsure if we should dive into that segment

that's what we are aiming for yep! for now it takes about 10 min to generate an full stack app which I feel it's still decent compared to do it all by yourself

we could indeed!

thanks for trying it out! I guess everything is fine in your code and just needed to direct the prompt a bit in the actual code (there is a tab 'code editor'). it's a bit what we're trying to improve. The AI gets 98% of stuff correctly, but for example here it missed to adjust the prompt to output stupid face generation - which literally takes 10 seconds to do in the code.

not at the moment, but it's a good idea yes it's technically possible Fixed! good catch :)

we use ant design at the moment, looking to integrate more UI libraries

thanks! did you log in on your generated app? that's a good idea, to integrate various boilerplates

although there is a lot of truth in your analysis I think developers don't just output code but "think"/solve problems. And problem solving is not a common skills , it's interesting to see what non-technical people VS developers prompt on marblism. Like you would be surprised how many people struggle with the concept of an if condition.

So developers are definitely not dead but will be empowered by the new tools and maybe their work will shift from solving problems+writing code to only solving problems.

good question, it's not a no-code tool - we generate code (similar to a cursor or copilot) and we expect people to review the generated codebase. We'll add a section on the documentation like checklist you need to review to make sure there is no security issues. should probably add ToS also yes

indeed! our initial focus was to make it work, shouldn't too hard to make it score well on accessibility - good point

haha no, the infrastructure we use is a bit intense to be entirely managed by an AI but one day maybe :)

That's cool, could make a good domain-investing app

I asked it to integrate with https://dataforseo.com/ api which is 10x cheaper than the ahrefs or semrush apis (it's real data)
