Pythagora (YC W24)

Pythagora (YC W24) is an AI dev tool that helps you build web apps using natural language. It goes beyond cool demo apps and enables you to build real, production-ready apps just by talking to Pythagora while it manages the codebase. Whenever it needs to make a creative decision, provide help, or provide feedback, it will ask you a question. With Pythagora v1, you can build apps without writing a single line of code. Still, this is just the first version of Pythagora so limitations exist. Currently, Pythagora provides the best experience for apps up to 3000 lines of code, and the team is working hard to push these boundaries. Congrats on the launch, Zvonimir Sablji? and Leon Ostrez! https://lnkd.in/dQRQ9nPw

This might be the best "AI Engineer" I've tried so far. I'm an old school developer who started 30 years ago. I feel very uncomfortable letting AI take control of my code, but for the sake of science, I spent two hours building an application that took me weeks to build a couple of years ago. I used Pythagora, a brand new tool backed by Y Combinator. They just released to the public. Keep in mind that I use AI every day to write code, but Pythagora is something different: it's a tool that leads, and uses you—the human—as the copilot. I go into more details in the video, but here is the TLDR; 1. Holy molly! We've made a ton of progress on this front! This is way better than Devin when I tested it a few months back. 2. Love the approach of generating a plan with sub-tasks before writing any code. 3. The tools never tries to do too much: it tackles every small task one at a time, and gives you instructions so you test everything. 4. It does exactly what you'd do when it gets stuck: writes a bunch of logs and uses those to correct itself. Pretty neat! 5. It's fast. It runs locally. It's an extension to Visual Studio Code. I'm impressed, but I don't think this tool is for me. I'm not the type of developer who's ready to relinquish control. I felt I had no connection with the code because I didn't write it. It was not my code. I know many people who don't care about this. I know many people who will get tremendous value out of Pythagora. I hope they keep pushing the limits, providing feedback, and helping this get to a point where old folks like me feel more comfortable using it. Don't take my word for it. The best thing you can do is to give it a try and see how you feel using it. Thanks to the team who built this, for all of the explanations and support, and especially, for sitting and listening to my dumb questions for 2 hours while I tested this.

???Pythagora (YC W24)?launched! IDE extension builds production-ready apps from scratch by talking to you. "The New Era of Software Development Begins." ???www.pythagora.ai ?? It’s not an autocomplete or a copilot - it’s a real AI developer that does all the coding while you give it feedback. It can build complex apps from analytics apps like Optimizely or social media apps like Reddit. ?? It asks you questions to make sure that the app works exactly as you want and proceeds this way to the next task until the entire app is finished. It breaks the plan into tasks, writes code, reads the CLI, fixes bugs, iterates, reviews the code, and refactors it. ? Get production-ready, modular code so you don't have to worry about maintainability. It's built on top of their open-source tool GPT Pilot that has over 22,000 Github stars. ??
