Hi Product Hunt! 👋 This is the first project I built almost entirely with AI — using Claude Code to generate nearly 100% of the code from scratch. I wanted to experiment with how far AI coding tools can go when building a small but polished interactive web project. WhaleIndex visualizes billionaire wealth as sea creatures in a scrollable ocean: 🐟 Fish → under $20B 🦈 Sharks → $20B–$100B 🐋 Whales → $100B+ As you scroll deeper into the ocean, fortunes get larger. I also added a small mini-game for fun: you can fish near the boat and randomly catch creatures, also try to unlock the treasure chest. The idea was to mix data visualization + playful interaction instead of static charts. I’m curious about something: Do you think AI coding tools could enable a new type of website — with interactive graphics, animations, and small embedded mini-games as part of the experience? Would love your thoughts and feedback! 🚀
