Pretty nice. I've been using LLMs to generate different Python and JS tools for wrangling data for ontology engineering purposes.

More recently, I've found a lot of benefit from using the extended thinking mode in GPT-5 and -5.1. It tends to provide a fully functional and complete result from a zero-shot prompt. It's as close as I've gotten to pair programming with a (significantly) more experienced coder.

One functional example of that (with 30-50% of my own coding, reprompting and reviews) is my OntoGSN [1] research prototype. After a couple of weeks of work, it can handle different integration, reasoning and extension needs of people working in assurance, at least based on how I understood them. It's an example of a human-AI collab that I'm particularly proud of.

Amazing article with lots of useful info. Big kudos, Simon.

This really showcases the power of the single page apps and why web will be always ahead of native for this kind of Swiss Army Knife tools.

With LLMs, it gets ridiculously easy to “develop” (generate) those too.
