- Very cool!
Suggestion: would be helpful to include examples of what's possible, or some things to try (or things that are explicitly prevented).
- Good point. I’ll add this to the README. Thanks!
- This is cool conceptually, but "y" do I have to login to your site if it is local and uses my Claude Code?
- y uses your local Claude Code/Codex and your local files. Your chats stay local too - I never get them. Login is for account/product features like feedback, usage analytics, and updates, not for proxying your repo or chat history through us. Details: https://ytimesy.com/privacy and https://ytimesy.com/terms
- I guess this is in tune with the yc rfs - https://www.ycombinator.com/rfs#dynamic-software-interfaces - but i do have the same question for the app updates - you will break everything as soon as the update takes place - this opens up a nice rabbit hole for discussion.
- I used to like Electron but most recently became a fan of Tauri. Electron is great from a UI perspective but seems like it tends to get bloated very quickly. Any suggestions on how to deal with it?

Yes, pick up a book on swift or MFC
- Cool!
Your readme mentions Modify. What’s that?
Does this use some generative UI?
- Thanks! Modify is the part where you can ask your coding agent to update the app live - including UI changes.
- I like it. I see this concept of allowing users to modify things to cater to their preferences being the future tbh.
- An app ui that can be modified by end users is a really cool idea. I hope to see that in more apps!
- Reminds of smalltalk.
- It would be even cooler if it was made with a Lisp and took advantage of it being homoiconic.
- Whoa! I did not know about smalltalk. Thanks for letting me know!
- smalltalk is basically the textbook ancestor of OO
- Also, a bit like emacs.
- Hey this is pretty cool
- Thanks!
