A Web-Based AI Code Editor: The Future of Rapid Prototyping

What I Built

I set out to build a web-based AI code editor that could generate fully functional websites from a simple text prompt. The key feature is the ability to not only generate a site but also to allow users to instantly view, edit, and deploy the code. The core prompt for the demo project I created was: "Build an endless trivia game using a variety of topics." This showcased the platform's ability to create a dynamic and interactive web application from a single command.

Demo

Here is a look at the platform I created. The main dashboard is where you can explore existing projects or create a new one from a prompt.

Once inside the editor, you can provide a prompt, and the AI will generate the website. For my demo, the result was a trivia game, which appears in the live preview panel.

The real power lies in the integrated code editor. After generation, you can click on the "Code Editor" tab to access and modify the underlying HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files directly in your browser.

This allows for complete control and customization. The final result is a deployed, live website.

💡 Summary

I was at a 𝗰𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝘆𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗱 debating remote-work productivity with friends - we asked the same prompt to 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘎𝘗𝘛, 𝘎𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘪, 𝘊𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘭𝘰𝘵, 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘵𝘺... and got five completely different “𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘴.” Same question. Wildly different answers. And we just accepted whichever came first. 😳

That’s when it hit me: 𝗕𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗜, 𝘄𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱 — 𝗻𝗼𝘄, 𝘄𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲. We’ve skipped the comparison, the thinking… and plunged straight into confident - but not always accurate - answers.

Wondering why AI often misses the mark? It’s not the model, it’s how we're prompting.

I wrote a 𝟲‐𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 with the 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁 I now use to consistently get the response I actually want (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini).

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲:

• The mindset shift: searcher ➝ decider
• The exact prompt structure (no fluff)
• 3 copy/paste examples for work
