AutoCode

You write your project instructions in a README.md file, point AutoCode at it, and get a working software project back.

AutoCode is an AI code generator that runs in the terminal and builds a project step by step from those instructions, using the Claude 3.5 Sonnet API as its model.

The incremental approach matters.

Rather than producing everything in one pass, AutoCode builds the project in stages, which suits larger codebases where a single prompt would not hold up.

It supports multiple programming languages and generates code automatically, and it also writes documentation as it goes.

Everything happens through a command-line interface, so it fits developers who already work in a shell and are comfortable keeping their spec in a plain text file.

If you prefer a graphical editor or a chat window, this is a different way of working.

The quality of the result will depend heavily on how clearly your README describes what you want.
