I just had an llm build the my side business’s website and full client portal. About 15k loc.
It’s amazing. Better design in terms of UI / UX than I could have fathomed and so much more.
There’s a lot of duplicated code that I’ll clean up, but the site functions and will be launched for clients to start using soon.
For my day job, it’s also helping me build out the software at a faster pace than before and is an amazing rubber duck.
- maxnevermind 1y agoHave you read through all 15K loc, What is your feeling about maintainability of it? Also as I understand one the main problem with LLM right now is trying to apply some surgical changes to large enough code base or adding some extra functionality without breaking/altering existing ones, have you faces issues with that? Another issue is security, I've heard some horror stories of non-tech people developing web solutions to later find them destroyed by hackers because they didn't know were to look to find holes in their design.
- _boffin_ 1y agoI’m finishing up some hardening features and some additionally functionality right now. It’s “maintainable” par se, but I will be going through it and cleaning it up a lot. It’s a Django application. It likes to write out large single files. Already went through to break things up into similar views and functionality. And as for security., were they even caring about it? Were they asking good questions? Reading about things? Learning ways to secure things? If someone blindly follows what it gives you, something interesting will happen at some point. Use it as an enhancer.
