Similarly, until an AI can orchestrate a recurring feedback loop between code editor, command line, browser, and external services, we won't see fully-AI-written (no developer required) software.
The current wave of text-to-UI demos are cool but IMO a distraction in terms of what's actually going to "change everything"

@csswizardry What are we missing here? You say it will likely be worse than 40% slower overall unbundled bs bundled. But his results seem pretty great no? Is the connection he’s testing on too fast? Or is your point that it’s bad to do things this way because even though it’s very fast, it’s…

The real AI power-use cases get unlocked when an AI...
- Can intelligently control an operating system without getting stuck & correct itself.
- Can intelligently control a browser and without getting stuck & correct itself.
- Has access to everything needed for identity (passwords, 2fa).
- Runs in a standalone environment in the cloud

@csswizardry I had read it before and just re-read. My takeaways:
- Compression favours larger files, so overall css/js shipped is higher without bundling.
- Shipping multiple files also carries increased latency (dark vs light green in your graphic)
But

Usually I'd say don't sweat the tool, but something weird I've noticed:
Tracking a software release as a list of bullets in a document (vs a kanban board with state columns) in my experience has a meaningful impact on the amount of software that gets shipped in a release.

Just realised it wasn’t obvious from the original recording, but that’s our own version of the Airbnb search bar, written with our library - the whole thing will probably take about 800 lines of HTML, and is

- Incredibly readable
- Copy-paste-able
- Requires zero build steps

The Airbnb search bar is a good example of a "rich interactive UI" that many would say can't/shouldn't be built HTML First. But the whole thing can be achieved with two concepts (attributes which can set state, attributes whose values are linked to that state).

A lot of the responses to https://t.co/1ckVMk8TCx were "Cool but it's just not possible to do X without react" (multi-selects, styled dropdowns etc.)
I get the sentiment, but there's nothing fundamentally preventing us from building these things in an HTML First way, and until now I just don't think there's been that many people trying (and there are still good solutions in html first libraries like Alpine).
Here's an example of a working multi-select using mini js (not yet released).

I've been thinking about this problem and experimenting with solutions pretty much non-stop for the past 4 years since I tweeted this. I'm confident we've solved a big chunk of it at the agency now.
Working on the best way to package and share the ideas. 2024 will be fun. https://t.co/MmVXkLcTsE

It’s a weirdly common occurrence for me for someone to point out a js-heavy website and then have it crash my browser. Are all the js ecosystem people just running super fast uncrashable machines? https://t.co/lCj1Q5C4Wz

@gavinjoyce Not really what they’re doing though as it’s input not output. Same as tweaking a text message before sending it

@thepatwalls Any thoughts on why “web apps as a productised service” doesn’t seem to work? Examples of web dev I’ve found are all websites (Webflow, Wordpress etc)
