I've published the sources for the code generation and the code that was generated on GitHub: https://ift.tt/sITKxVM I've been experimenting with merging prompts together, with a goal to write the full backend in a single prompt. On the form: > 1. Setup a flask web server > 2. Add a /add endpoint It works reasonably well, but it seems like it's loosing some precision in the prompts... The person that coined the term "prompt engineering" was right, it's really important to learn what words to use to get the AI to do exactly what you want it to do.
