Don’t take my word for it then, ask any terminal agent to dig in and get an idea of how good these apps are.
In the end, I built Openship and Openfront for my e-commerce business and then turned them into SaaS. All the revenue for these are just a cherry on top of our existing e-commerce businesses.
And I worked with Next and Keystone long before AI came along. Check my GitHub commits if you need some back story.
And I’m not building these 20 SaaS to prove I have bonafide SWE skills. I’m building them because I plan to have my own gyms, hotels, grocery stores down the line powered by these SaaS. SWE to me a means to an end and that’s to have many different businesses.

Okay but, you know this isn't a quality metric right? These models are incredibly biased towards positive confirmation of the prompt. I could give them nearly any repo and they would sing the praises of the best parts, if I asked.
This sounds a bit like psychosis.
I never told you what prompt to even feed your AI my guy. As far as I know, you can be like rip this repo to shreds and tell me what’s wrong with it and you’ll get your answer.
Crazy how you guys blindly trust proprietary apps where you can’t even read the code but asking you to read open-source code is psychosis?

Wow okay, I'm a huge open source advocate, I run hardly anything closed source. No one here was talking about that, this is your own weird segue.
> but asking you to read open-source code is psychosis
But you didn't ask that. You told me to get an agent to read it (actually, not even read it, make its own quality assessment for me).
That's a massive difference, and if you consider them to be the same thing, then yes, my statement stands.
