Description
Hey - I've been playing with LLMs since GPT-2 and recently experimented with fully generative UIs where the HTML/Canvas are generated just-in-time.Every post on the feed( on slop/duck/storytime) you see is streamed and generated just-in-time with HTML and into a Canvas with Gemini 3 Flash.Comments and DMs are bidirectionally linked with a Cloudflare Workers Durable Object which is why they feel so fast. Every generated post is saved into a DO SQLite which is then served into the "Following" feed so it can be served quicker.This was inspired by Wikitok, a VSCode Extension I made around brainrot, and another fully generative UI site I made.

Could you build this?
Yes It is a front-end feed application that fetches Wikipedia content or prompts Gemini Flash to render streaming HTML/canvas cards in a TikTok-style vertical scroll.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a content generation tool for Government yet.
