Depends on scope, but Parrot is tuned to decently one-shot a lot of stuff.

For example, I need to implement HTTP/2 in my JS framework and was curious about what the code would look like. Here's the result from the following prompt: https://www.imghippo.com/i/xR2Zk1727987897.png (full code it gave me here: https://gist.github.com/rglover/069bdaea91c629e95957610b484e...).

Prompt:

> Help me implement an HTTP/2 enabled server using Express.js.

---

When I initially researched how to do this just following the Node.js docs, Google results, and SO, it was fairly confusing (easily wasted an hour or two). This immediately gave me what I needed to understand the approach in a few seconds.

I am not a nodeJS developer but it was interesting that the first results from a kagi search was SO question that had one of the answers that contains a code very similar to what you provided here [1]. So while you might be right in general, I still think you still gave an example of that you used LLM tool to help implementing a solution. You actually knew that you want to implement http/2 using express.js.

Hint: I am not sure whether this is a good solution or not. As I said I am not a nodeJS developer.

If you want to take it for a test drive, Parrot is free to try and works with any language (~200+ languages and frameworks supported), not just JS/Node. I'd also be happy to give you some extra generation tokens to push the limits (just email me w/ your username [email protected] and I'll hook you up) and see if it'd be useful.
