Building Mini Apps with AI in Real Time
Shows how to use AI to build simple utility apps like temperature converters and discount calculators in under a minute.

You’ve had one of those moments where you said, I wish there was an app for that. Well, in a lot of cases, you can use AI to build mini applications to solve problems in near real time. Here’s a really quick example. Using pure JavaScript, build a mini app that allows me to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius. About 30 seconds later, I can go and put in 94 degrees Fahrenheit, and I can see that that’s 34 degrees Celsius. Let’s make this a little bit better. I’ve added the prompt, I want to be able to convert both ways and use a slider. Another 30 seconds later, and you can see I’ve now got a slider that allows me to move up and down, and I can see the Fahrenheit and Celsius in real time. And because Claude syncs with mobile, here’s another example that has a range of different discount calculator options that I built. Next time you need to do some calculation of some sort, try using AI to do it.
