Hey Creators,
Welcome to this week's updates on the inner workings of Create, the easiest way to code in natural language™️. We've got a bit of a new layout for you this week, but first, a quote to get the juices flowing:
"Empowerment is not about giving power; it's about unlocking the power that already exists within."— Someone Inspirational
Woof, not sure if it's the four espressos or the quote, but I think my internal juices are flowing a little too much...
They say you've got two ears and one mouth, so listen more than you speak. We've also got 10 fingees to add new features as fast as we can.
One page, Two Page, Three Page, Four. With Multipage you can create more! Guys, I'm not a poet. I only own one beret.
Now you can create projects with multiple pages. You can see the updated Dashboard above. I know I'm supposed to explain this but like...multi...page...what else is there to say? Go play around with it ya single page having Neanderthals.
You thought we'd just add ONE THING? Please.
Check out these new Integrations!
Haters gonna hate, trolls gonna troll, and we're just gonna sit back and sunbathe while Create filters all that nonsense.
Now you have the capability to scour your app to filter offensive, hurtful, or egregious responses. (Keep in mind that this is based on OpenAI's Moderations API, not what Grandma Lucille finds problematic...)
All you have to do is describe how your app should use it, and Create will build the app that way.
As our co-founder Dhruv puts it "the better your description of what you want to have happen, the better the results". So get granular with it! (Or, you know, be vague and reap what you sow.)
You could tell Create to:
Grab data from [my API] and flag it using /[OpenAI Moderation]
Make me an app lets me upload performance reviews, and for each response uses /[OpenAI Moderation] to label whether or not responses contain sexual content.
Build an app that collects all the reviews from the latest episode of Real Housewives, and use /[OpenAI Moderation] to filter out harassment. (though we're not sure if anything will be left...)
Still not getting it? Zaria's got a demo for you.
Now you have the power of Google Shopping, the largest product database in the world, right at your fingertips.
Everyone loves a shortcut, so rather than writing the code yourself to incorporate that API, just type /[Real Time Product Search], and Create will do it for you.
The applications here are virtually limitless. Let us know on our Discord how you're trying to use it - if more people use it in more creative ways, we're able to build a more powerful version. Collaborative learning, baby.
With all the negativity, we think it's important to highlight something that reminds us that spending long hours in front of our computers is worth it (sorry for missing date night babe, but how do you think we afford every single streaming service?)
Today's heart-warming tale comes from, of all places, Twitter (I'll call it X when the SpaceX Starship doesn't explode...)
People are realizing that Create is a new and effective way to simply build things that you want! Measure twice, cut once might be good for lumber, but why not just see, in code, and in real time, what you’re making?
Creating in code is the best way to build a product. And now, you can do it even without a CS degree from some fancy University. cough cough don't check our diplomas...
I mean, even DHH sees the big picture. Quick, someone DM him the Create Homepage.
Okay, this is a bit of a cheat, because, actually, we loved this argument from Matt Alston over at Wired. And yes, I know this article is from 2023. I also just watched Casablanca for the first time. I'm a busy guy.
Companies are so addicted to "optimization software" that they forget to do the most important thing - ask their employees what they really need.
That's one thing that's so powerful about Create - it allows everyone to feel empowered enough to simply build the tools they want and need. And if they can't do it alone, they can collaborate with other orgs in their company. So-called productivity isn't nearly as important as efficiency and enabling people to customize products to their specific needs.
A GoodReads style website without the toxic subculture. Works end to end and even stores all your data!
This app uses GPT-4 Vision to find the differences in exposure, white balance, and color of two images. Super simple design with tons of potential modification.
A colorful and imaginative layout to a diary. It even has a chatbot companion which allows you to search past entries.
Think you made the next great thing? Just really excited that you typed words and what came out wasn't gibberish? Submit your app by emailing hello@create.xyz.
Okay, that's enough for this week. Marcus says that if I spend any more time on this, it becomes a personal diary and we can't expense it.
Remember, if it's rumbling around in your head...
Just Create It!
