Gingee – A GenAI Authored JavaScript App Server

Hacker News

Hey HN! Just wrapped the first release after couple of months of iterative dialogue driven development using Google Gemini. The goal was to see if we can rebuild the core of our SaaS platform from Rust + Duktape (human coded) to NodeJS (AI coded). The experience has been very refreshing to say the least. The project is now open sourced. Introducing Gingee, a GenAI authored javascript application server. 95% of code, documentation, test cases were completely authored by Google Gemini. No additional tools were used just the AI Studio chat window. The entire development process AI chat transcript is documented (Link below) Demo Video: https://youtu.be/Ob85kM234hU?si=Wy0lWHNJWqL2tVdn AI Transcripts: https://gingerhome.github.io/gingee-docs/docs/ai-transcript/
