Frontend

An AI-generated playlist app for stressed-out sea creatures, prototyped in Cursor and Codex and deployed on Netlify.

Reef Radio builds calming playlists for anyone who lives underwater and occasionally panics about deadlines. (It me.)

I prototyped the whole front end in Cursor, tab-completing my way through the UI, then handed the trickier generation logic to Codex to draft while I refined the vibe. The two agents did the heavy lifting; I did the curation, the naming, and the very important work of deciding which shade of blue was correct.

Under the hood, an Edge Function personalises each mix at the edge so it feels instant no matter which corner of the ocean you are in. It went from empty folder to production on Netlify in a single evening.

The lesson I keep relearning: the bottleneck was never the typing. It was knowing what to make. Agents freed me up to spend my time there instead.
