Show HN: AppifyText – Get ready-to-use CRUD apps from plain text descriptions

Hi HN, this is a proof of concept, the result of a few weeks of work.<p>The idea was to create a system that gets in input the description of an application in plain English (ideally, its specifications) and produces in output the actual, ready to use, Web application in reasonable time (less than a minute). The focus is on CRUDs, simple internal tools, personal databases &amp; similar apps.<p>I took a generative AI model (GPT-3) and a no-code&#x2F;low-code platform (DaDaBIK) and I made them cooperate.<p>Users provide app descriptions as input, which are then processed by the AI to generate an output that is tweaked and passed to the no-code platform to actually build the app. The resulting app includes CRUD features, automatic relationship handling, some data validation, and additional features like chart generation. The app also contains realistic examples of data to help users get started.<p>I know there is room for a lot of improvement and that the resulting app is not the state of the art in terms of UI&#x2F;UX but considering the results I got in such a short time I think there might be potential.<p>It&#x27;s a beta and there are some corner cases that can generate errors, but from the first tests (hundreds of apps generated) I can see that the vast majority of requests give reasonable results, if they are in target with the focus of AppifyText.ai (requests like &quot;Build the new instagram for me!&quot; gave obviously unexpected results).<p>Any feedback is welcome.
