    Cool project, but I'd really suggest looking at the UI.

    The text is too small and it's way too dense with information in general. Considering how simple this product is to use, it's kinda crazy that I have to scroll through over a page length of (mostly useless, AI-generated) information before getting to the actual interface.

    Also what is going on with the footer (why does it link back to the site itself, why is it telling me to "serve over HTTP").

        It's clear that this was vibecoded. I'm antivibecoding, but here's a tip.

        Don't focus on the actual code or the actual UI. You need to give your model a way to see its output. If it just pumps code, it looks at the code. If you let it look at the rendered UI, whether by manually taking screenshots, or making it so that the agent looks at the browser output automagically (with a webdriver or selenium or puppeteer or a skill or whatever), it will fix whatever issues it sees on itself, and it will never be content with delivering something that looks as bad as this.
