@ThomasMaul had a good talk on the tao of qodly. since the idea seems to be to further abstract the web app from the underlying framework, why not easier access to the files, and an easier mechanism for uploading and downloading to a project?
studio is slow and awkward to use. it takes FOREVER to build a web form this way, and it takes FOREVER to pick it apart to see what’s going on, and where. while the hot-reload analog is nice-to-have, a lot of hand-fiddling is required to make layouts work, because there isn’t a simple way, via a text editor, to quickly modify multiple properties.
i don’t see a way to even train an llm to assist with some of the (seemingly) rudimentary tasks, because i don’t see a way to easily implement any changes, after they are proposed, except by hand.
