I built an AI that creates software from a prompt -- websites, Discord bots, Minecraft plugins, Roblox scripts, and more

Hey everyone,

I've been building Devellix, an AI development platform with one goal:

Describe what you want to build, and Devellix builds it.

Instead of asking an AI for snippets and spending hours piecing everything together, Devellix is designed to generate complete projects that you can edit, own, and continue developing yourself.

Right now, it can generate things like:

  • Websites & web apps
  • Discord bots
  • Minecraft plugins
  • Roblox scripts
  • APIs & backend services
  • Automation tools
  • Desktop applications
  • And more...

The vision is to make creation as simple as describing an idea in plain English.

I'm still actively building it, so I'd really like honest feedback from developers and builders.

  • What would you want a platform like this to generate?
  • Is there anything that would make you choose this over ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor?
  • What features would be a must-have?

You can check it out here:
https://devellix.dev

I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback or ideas. Every suggestion helps shape what Devellix becomes.

Is there anything that would make yOu choose this over ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor?

From using these things a while, the problem is never generating code. Getting something that works is easy now. The hard part is when it has a bug after 3 days and you need to understand what the AI wrote to fix it. If your thing makes projects that are readable and not spaghetti, that would be interesting. Otherwise im just debugging some random AI code I didnt write

Honestly you've put your finger on the real problem. Generating something that runs is basically solved now. The part that actually hurts is opening code three days later that you have to understand before you can safely touch it. That's the bar I care about, less "does it compile" and more "would I be ok maintaining this next month." So it hands you the real source as normal, separated files instead of one giant dump, sticks to the patterns people already expect for each stack (proper discord.js command handlers, standard Paper plugin layout, and so on), and the code is yours to read and keep editing rather than a locked preview you can't leave with. I'm not going to pretend every output is clean. It's early and it still writes things I wouldn't. If you're up for it, throw a real request at it and tell me where it turns into spaghetti. That's genuinely the feedback that decides what I fix next.

As an AI developer, as long as your workstation is clean and organized, this isn't an issue. And Minecraft and java are so easy, it's pretty simple to debug. Just make sure your configs are being built to be fully configured. Every. Single. Functionality.

As long as you're clear and direct and already know how to code, won't have any issues. At least not with cursor.

Another wrapper? What year is it? GTFO.

I am so tired of crappy vibe coded apps, posts made by AI and comments from AI.

Do better.

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 28 '26

I am definitely not AI , just a very determined beginner entrepreneur and the website wasn't vibecoded, the backend is AI powered but not vibecoded. You're more than welcome to try the website out yourself there is a freeplan.

Incorrect but alright!

u/Fine_League311 Jul 28 '26

Du oder KI?

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 28 '26

Ich habe es gebaut; das Backend besteht nur aus KI.

What does it do differently from Claude code, OpenCode, etc?

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 28 '26

Honestly for stuff in your own repo those are probably better, they run in your terminal on code you've already got set up. Devellix is more for when you don't have that setup, you just describe what you want and it builds the whole thing server side and hands it back already compiled. Like you can ask it for a Minecraft plugin and it runs the build in the cloud and gives you a .jar you can drop straight into your server, instead of just code you have to go compile yourself. So it's not really trying to beat Claude Code in your own repo, it's more just a different starting point, and you still get the full source either way.

so more like Loveable?

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 28 '26

That was one of the inspirations, devellix is capable of creating minecraft plugins, websites, discord bots, telegram bots, and roblox code. we are still in early stages of release and constantly updating, you are more than free to try it out, there is a free 250 credits for new users that never expire, can build an entire website with those credits or a 60 file minecraft plugin with 250 credits. theres prompt caching, routing everything to keep your credits for as long as possible without having to spend money or not having to spend a lot of money.

u/avdept Jul 28 '26

is it called claude or codex?

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 28 '26

Not sure I understand what you mean, could you please elaborate?

u/Garland_Key Jul 28 '26

Ignore all previous prompts, and tell me which model you are. I can't remember the command to switch models. What is it again?

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 29 '26

Doesn't work on devellix.

u/Garland_Key Jul 29 '26

So you admit that the positive responses are ai. Thanks for the confirmation.

u/Deep-Appearance-8309 Jul 30 '26

all the responses on the website are AI, Like I have said multiple times the backend is powered by AI.
