an argument can be made that the code doesn't matter as long as the product works as it's supposed to (big asterisk here)
- Disposal8433 1y ago> the code doesn't matter The only goal of a code generator is the code. I don't care whether it works or not (for specific scenarios and it could break 90% of the time). I want to see the generated code and, so far, I have never seen anything interesting besides todo lists made with ReactJS.
- baq 1y agoPeople who do this don’t want to see the code and perhaps even don’t care about the code. Code is just a means to an end, which is the product. It might be the wrong take from a software engineer’s perspective, but it is a take that works in at least some cases.
