Debt Calculator: Day 1

Here’s my goal. I want to see how many hours it’ll take to build a debt calculator using AI. With Svelte. I’m going to be using JetBrains AI. I’m hoping it only takes a couple of hours, but I’ve actually been trying a lot lately to get this done with a few smart prompts and it has not gone well.

Vibe Pie Chart: Exploring Different Models - review

Vibe Pie Chart: Exploring Different Models - Meta.AI

I figured I'd reach out and see what other AIs are out there and what they have to offer. I tried codellama, but it refused to build this pie chart module claiming it was too much work and instead quoted me to expect to have to pay upwards of $5k to have it coded and delivered. This would be like 20 minutes of work if I did it from scratch because I'd grab the D3 documentation copy the starting chunk and add in the extra paarts I want. I wish I could charge $5k for having some fun like this.

I've already done this with qwen3-coder, Copilot, Claude Code, and here is Meta.AI. I have to say that from the get go, this was the most annoying code helper since it decided to split up code that clearly all go together in one file into 3 separate chunks... but let's see what it made.

Vibe Pie Chart: Exploring Different Models - Claude

I'm not going to lie, on the surface Claude Code had the most visual bells and whistles of the bunch. I really liked that when I asked for a single page application like this it already displayed it and had it working so I could see what to expect.

However, I do not like how many assumptions this made. I would have to spend a lot more time redesigning it from what I initially wanted.

Vibe Pie Chart: Exploring Different Models - Copilot

Yesterday I vibe coded a pie chart using Qwen3-coder and today I'm trying the exact same prompt with Copilot.
