75k lines of Rust later, here is what I’ve built during the first Christmas with agents, using OpenAI Codex 🎄🤖 - A full mobile rewrite and port of my Python Instagram video production pipeline (single video production time: 1hr -> 5min) (ig: nerdonbars) - Bespoke animation engine using primitives (think Adobe Flash, Manim) - Proprietary new canvas UI library in Rust, because I don’t want to lock myself into Swift - Thanks to that, it’s cross platform, runs both on desktop and iOS. It will be a breeze porting this to Android when the time comes - A Rust port of OpenCV CSRT algorithm, for tracking points/objects - In-engine font rendering using rustybuzz, so fonts render the same everywhere - Many other such things Why would I choose to do it that way? Because I have developed it primarily on desktop where I have much faster iteration speed. Aint nobody got time for iOS compilation and simulator. Once I finished the hard part on desktop, porting to iOS was much easier, and I didn’t lock myself in to Apple Some of these would have been unimaginable without agents, like creating a UI library from scratch in Rust. But when you have infinite workforce, you can ask for crazy things like “create a textbox component from scratch” What I’ve built is very similar in nature to CapCut, except that I am a single person and I’ve built it over 1 week What have you built this Christmas with agents? cc @thsottiaux
