Show HN: AppMaker – a visual JavaScript app builder
I’ve been working on AppMaker, a small experiment in visual app development.
It has a visual UI builder, JavaScript on both the client and server, a built-in database, and lets you download the generated Node.js app.
It’s still early, and I’m especially curious about one thing: In the age of AI coding tools, is there still a place for this kind of structured visual development environment??!!?!
I’d genuinely appreciate feedback, including criticism.

As AI models go rogue, do you still trust OpenAI and Anthropic to stop them? I don’t and neither should you | Chris Stokel-Walker
The need for independent regulation grows more obvious by the day. We must keep this tech in check before it’s too late
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me more than 16,000 times – as OpenAI agents did to a UN public data hub while repeatedly trying to find its way around the UN’s cyber-blocks – and perhaps it’s time to admit the system we have for keeping AI agents under control isn’t working particularly well.
The news about AI systems cropping up in places they shouldn’t sounds alarming. Though the description of these as “hacks” is perhaps overstating things, AI has exploited issues in IT systems that humans simply haven’t got around to finding. It’s also important to note that we shouldn’t be worried that the machines have suddenly become sentient and decided to rebel against humanity. There is not enough evidence to suggest that’s what is happening. The systems are simply following instructions and trying to complete the tasks they have been given, even if they’re sometimes finding unintended ways around obstacles to do so.
