To the below I'd add: time. ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
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. ๐คฆ๐พโโ๏ธ I enjoyed the build-a-thon (and plan to bring my build across the finish line ๐). Congrats again to the winning submitters! ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐พ
"From structured prompts to simulation design to ambitious custom UI, each build shows that meaningful interactivity doesnโt require a full development environment, just curiosity, iteration, and a willingness to try."
