Hey Hacker News!
Launching gptengineer.app into beta today.
It's like Claude Artifacts, but:
- you can edit the code in your fav IDE (two-way github sync)
- installs npm packages
- automatically picks up build and runtime errors and fixes them
- very fast, built with rust
The full stack capabilities are built on supabase (prefer to not have to handle auth + user data at this point so this is owned by the user)
The seed for this project was an open source experiment, posted about that previously here:

Would love feedback if you give it a try!
One feature request would be a search for the existing public projects so that I can use remix to jump start my project.
Two questions:
1) Given the name, is it fair to assume that this uses OpenAI's API as opposed to Anthropic or others?
2) In the initial create prompt, what kind of files are allowed as attachments? What type of files give best results?
