Just today, my health insurance told me i had to install their app to schedule a specialist visit. After installing it and logging in, I tapped the "specialists" button, and it proceeded to switch out of the app to my browser and connect to their mobile website.

ETA: as a cherry on top, these instructions were on their website, which I was looking at on my desktop. I had to switch to my phone first.

You don't understand. Phone screens are a lot smaller so you need less code to run them.

Have you even considered how greedy you are wanting to use up so many tokens?

Imagining someone generating the HTML, CSS and JS on the fly using Claude is killing me

No need for any of that PHP or Jinja or HTMX shite /s
