"I built a serious prompt engineering tool with zero coding background — AMA"

I'm Eric.

My background is early childhood education, not software. For the past months I've been orchestrating AI collaborators (Claude, Gemini, others) to build PromptMachine — a single-file, offline-first console for composing LLM prompts, launching here August 4.

No funding, no team, no shortcuts on quality — just a lot of grep-before-code discipline and cross-checking every output across models to avoid AI sycophancy.

Ask me anything: the tooling, the tradeoffs, why single-file, why no subscription, whether "vibe coding" can actually ship something solid. Honest questions welcome, including the skeptical ones.
