To the below I'd add: time. 🤣🤣🤣
In my code block experimentation, I burnt hours tweaking it (and it's still 'incomplete' - meaning, not working the way I envisioned). Great tip in the above Q&A: keep a code scratchpad. GAI tools do not save a history of your iterations, so if you need to revert to an earlier build (that was 'almost' working), you have to have the previous code somewhere to recall/reinsert. I learned this the hard way, at iteration 10, and I needed to jump back to earlier outputs, but I had NOT saved the code. 🤦🏾♂️ I enjoyed the build-a-thon (and plan to bring my build across the finish line 😉). Congrats again to the winning submitters! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
"From structured prompts to simulation design to ambitious custom UI, each build shows that meaningful interactivity doesn’t require a full development environment, just curiosity, iteration, and a willingness to try."
