Nice. I found it a little confusing that vx.dev (the domain) doesn't work.

>>jamesm+9c
yes you are right, the domain is a little expensive and already sold out:)

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Curious what Vx means? Or stands for? Is it an homage to the nerve gas?

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Very innovative UI

>>Solven+Bd
Since the prompt part of this project is highly inspired by Vercel's v0.dev, I chose a name that shows my respect for that product.

>>yz-yu+vd
Maybe vvx.dev? Naming your service a domain you don't own is going to be confusing and possibly result in legal headaches. Not worth it

>>yz-yu+(OP)
The landing page looks nice, but it makes the content 20x harder to read.

>>yz-yu+vd
you absolutely cannot be naming your company after a domain name you do not own. Terrible choice

>>jasonj+1k
Or just vxdev or vx-dev or VxDev or something that doesn't look like a domain name.

>>yz-yu+vd
If your product takes off, it for sure won't get cheaper

>>jjacks+en
I see...It's just published like a blog, and maybe worth a redesign as a landing page.

Thanks for the suggestion!

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Does it work? With all respect to the author - kudos for interesting product - but does it really work in real life? Since I don't have any project in React/Svelte/Vue (ng programmer :( ) at hand - I would really hope someone would share the experience. Looks like something I've been waiting for some time now...

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Curious - I wonder why they didn't preload image X+1 on image X

>>yz-yu+(OP)
I was wondering when someone would do this.

I’ve been waiting for a solution like this since GitHub copilot came out. It seems like a natural extension.

>>yz-yu+qt
I would say it’s published like a slide deck, I haven’t seen any blogs that look like this

>>rkuody+Xu
I am not the author but absolutely huge kudos. I’m building something similar called Magic Patterns. Considering you asked to try it in real life, you can try on our website directly: https://www.magicpatterns.com/

We do a similar approach, i.e., parse the AST to reconstruct the imports and remove hallucinations. It's quite the technical challenge: feeding non-deterministic generated code into functions to clean up all the hallunications. But it works. You can see examples of developers using our generated React code below.

very exciting to see people building in this space.

My mouse's scroll wheel won't land on some of those lines. So there are parts I can't read.

>>yz-yu+qt
I usually have all windows maximized so normally this is not a problem for me but I've noticed other people, (especially mac people), don't like to maximize their windows. Here is one screenshot to show an example on Windows where I have a 4k display with two browser windows side by side each window at 50% so texton the image is unreadable.

I tried to view the page on iOS and it was definitely unfamiliar.

Even on desktop I imagine it would feel more like a presenter view in PowerPoint than a blog post. Unless it somehow looks radically different to on desktop than what this mobile view looks like.

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Is this using GitHub to orchestrate the workflow, from starting it via issue, then Actions to generate previews and iterate on the design?

I'm asking because this might be the first startup that's using Github as "compute." Very, very creative thinking here if so.

>>alexda+UC
Cool beans ! love this. I am wondering how hard it is to introduce new design system ? I am particularly interested in Lighting design system >> https://www.lightningdesignsystem.com/

>>eddywe+5L
hey thanks! Not hard, we add custom design systems all the time for our customers and have plans to make it self-serve. I've never scheduled this through hackernews before haha: would to hear more about your use case and hook it up for if you're open for a call? early days for us. my email is alex[at]magicpatterns.com

>>alexda+UC
This looks cool but as a bit of feedback I assumed your pricing would be way out of my league because you have a free trial and a "contact us" as the only public pricing I could see. After logging in I saw the next step up was just $8/mo!

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Doesn't sound "effortless". Effortless is AI in the vein of copilot which is tied to my IDE and deploys immediately in my sandbox.

Why not just write a VS extension to do the same thing.

>>yz-yu+vd
sounds like you need to rebrand immediately

>>yz-yu+(OP)
I couldn’t figure out how to scroll the page on iOS. And I think your “star for free trial” play is slimy and gross.

>>yz-yu+(OP)
is this targeted towards non-technical users? for technical users, wouldn't an IDE plugin be a more natural part of the workflow?

>>nerdpo+2o
I mean it's not like you can name your company Microsoftcom so I'm not sure these are any better. If someone owns vx.dev and they bought it before this thing was published they don't have to try very hard to make a case for infringement.

>>yz-yu+(OP)
I have to say the image associated with the text "With the power of shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS, we can generate high-quality, aesthetically pleasing UI code." made me laugh, because it not only doesn't look particularly good to me (but that's personal style as much as anything) but seems to be one of those layouts that results in an optical illusion. I keep seeing gray circles at the intersections of the gaps between rows and columns that aren't actually there.

Looks interesting as a proof of concept, I'm curious about the quality of the code it generates.

>>injidu+5S
It's for a different level of user. I like the approach a lot.

>>pc86+M41
It's not like the letters "VX" are now permanently claimed and unavailable for any software-related product.

This might depend on things like whether the name of the domain owner is "Vx Dev", or "VX Systems Inc" and they happen to have a cute .dev TLD.

>>IanCal+DQ
ah thank you! yes we need to make that waaay more clear.

- The $8/mo is for unlimited usage of the public design systems you see listed. (Up to 5 generations are free)

- The "Contact Us" pricing is for company's with highly custom design systems.

>>yz-yu+(OP)
Why do these AI products keep telling on themselves for producing broken results in their marketing copy?

This screenshot of the generated calculator is rubbish https://pub-92e90cabe8b8410dbb5e46d17a83dce2.r2.dev/vx-websi.... This does not match the "high-quality, aesthetically pleasing UI" it boasts in the caption. What's with the ordering of all the buttons? Why is this the examble they chose to screenshot and advertise with?
