look i am deeply skeptical of a.i. and its ability to produce quality work but @raycast.com put out a new app generator called glaze, and i was able to produce a highly-polished fully featured desktop app in less than 24 hours of a quality that frankly blows me away.

WOAH i am impressed!! on the FIRST prompt it managed to make it work? this is definitely the best consumer form of these "vibe coding" personal software tools! it's clear that @raycast.com have put a lot of effort in the harness and how it writes code + tests it for the Mac apps!
