Quick Snack
Quick Snack enables rapid development of React Native applications by conversing with an AI assistant within Expo Snack, streamlining the mobile app creation process.
About Quick Snack
Quick Snack is an innovative tool that simplifies building React Native applications through conversational AI. Built on Expo Snack, it allows developers and designers to prototype and develop mobile apps quickly with AI assistance. Currently in early alpha, it aims to make native mobile app development faster and more accessible by leveraging artificial intelligence for code generation and UI design.
How to Use
Start by interacting with the AI assistant to specify your app requirements. Describe the features or UI you want, and the AI will generate the corresponding code. You can send additional messages to refine or expand your app. Keep in mind, dependencies may need manual addition, and rate limits could affect usage.
