What an ambitious and impressive project! I'm going to try it.
One note: The home page says "Nothing phones home," but the Bento files I've examined include a cloudflareinsights.com beacon.

Thanks for raising that. It might be in the standard cloudflare/actors SDK I used for Cloudflare Durable Objects. I'll try to disable this behavour and if we couldn't, we'll rip out DO and replace it with something that doesn't phone home. Apologies I wasn't thorough enough here.
Just an update to this phone home issue. I haven't found anything showing that this should be normal behaviour. I'm thinking this may be due to cloudflare challenges due to the traffic spike. In addition to the DO, the whole website sits behind a Cloudflare proxy.
Will keep chipping away at this and update as I learn more.
I'm still having trouble tracking this down the Bento app. There's nothing in the source on cloudflareinsights.com and nothing is connecting to that either when I inspect from Chrome. Could it be from the website? (The website is a GH pages fronted by Cloudflare)
Can you share data or show where this is so I can quickly check?

Agreed that the homepage should not indicate otherwise, but on the plus side with a tool like Bento you can edit the HTML file locally, remove the script tag at the bottom that does that, and never worry about that tracking again!
By ambitious and impressive do you mean for Claude?
Because while cool this is clearly heavily vibe coded.
Actually, for me, being llm generated makes this more impressive because it marks the first real world example of a genuine new product built with ai that I have ever seen.
For 6 years I’ve been reading hype about amazing productivity boosts from this stuff, but until now the expected flood of cool new products never arrived. Just lots of tools and harnesses and swarm coordination stuff to help companies spend more money on the hype cycle.
But finally somebody actually built an app and released it. I call that a milestone.
I'm don't care. If it's good, it's good.
Agreed, but the days of software projects being ambitious or impressive are over.
Agreed, this ended around the rise of Assembly. Machine code or bust!
Ambition is still a human characteristic.
Because they didn't write all the code by hand? Seems like an odd measurement for determining if a project is ambitious or impressive. Clearly this one is based on the replies here.
