Markup Master - Because Making a Website Shouldn't be so Hard

Hey all, I'm proud to present my latest creation: Markup Master. Markup Master is a prompt-based HTML generator. All you have to do is ask it something like "I need a website for my restaurant" or "Make me an Atari Breakout clone" and it will give it to you, HTML, CSS, and JS. It's a great resource for my fellow webdev people who struggle with developer's block when starting out a project, whether you need design inspiration or need help getting through some tough JS code.

Currently the generator only makes vanilla HTML, CSS, and JS, as that is easiest to just shove into a code editor and see it happen, but in the future I plan to add generation for React, Vue, and Svelte projects, deployment of your app from within the site, source control integration, and more. I would appreciate your feedback as this project continues to break ground!

Fantastic, have u used it to try to replicate the chat gpt website?

I asked it to build "A clone of OpenAI's ChatGPT that implements the OpenAI API." It actually does make the requisite requests when you put in your API key, though the answers are a bit gibberish. It does make the requisite calls to the API though, so 90% there. Still some kinks though 😅

wow and it creates the instructions too?

Yeah, I wanted to make sure the user had some context as to what they were seeing and where to progress from what it had generated.

very cool!

Small update: I've made some changes to the model that should cause it to be a little less placeholder-y. I've also increased the amount of starting tokens to 20, and credited existing accounts to 20 credits.

A major update - we are now using GPT 4! You should find that the model adheres to your prompt far better.

As a tip, adding just a little more specificity to your prompt should help it generate websites that suit your needs far better, especially if you're mainly looking for JS. For instance, "A real-time collaborative text editor" gave me an alert saying "This is a mockup, feature not integrated" when I clicked the share button it made. However, when I tried "A real-time collaborative text editor integrated using Firebase, it set up JS that included a Firebase app setup and a Firestore listener. You can of course replace Firebase with Azure, AWS, etc.
