Welcome to this live stream. So in this
0:01
live stream I'll show you a alternative
0:05
platform which is a free open-source
0:07
platform for building coding
0:08
applications. So you don't need to use
0:10
lovable which basically is a very
0:14
popular platform for building coding
0:15
applications. Lovable.dev
0:18
but it's not free here. If you go to the
0:20
pricing it's really the plans as you can
0:22
see it's really expensive. Similarly we
0:26
have another platform bolt.dev. Tev
0:30
bold.ai AI if you simply type this this
0:33
is also a website builder very popular I
0:36
have also used this but this is really
0:38
not free open source if you go to the
0:41
pricing this is also very
0:45
replet is also very popular platform
0:48
plot Gemini chat GPT all these platforms
0:51
are good but at the same time they
0:54
actually charge a lot of subscription
0:56
fees and for this specific purpose I am
0:59
showing you this website here
1:01
huggingface.co co if you simply go to
1:03
this website this is actually a
1:06
open-source website for exploring
1:08
open-source AI models so there is one
1:12
you first of all need to login inside
1:15
this website so simply create account
1:18
after creating this account I've already
1:20
logged in and there is a thing called as
1:23
spaces right here simply go to the
1:25
spaces and right here you can see spaces
1:29
are nothing but these are applications
1:31
which are made on top of open-source AI
1:33
models. So there is this one such space
1:37
out there which is quen 3 coder web
1:39
development. So it's actually using the
1:42
opensource quen 3
1:44
model which is a Chinese-based model for
1:47
creating applications for you. So this
1:50
is one alternative that you can use.
1:52
Simply go to the space it's completely
1:54
free to use. So once the application
1:57
launches you can definitely
2:00
one other space is there. If you simply
2:02
search for this which is deep site if
2:05
you simply search right here deep side
2:08
this space will come deep deep site it's
2:11
a complete editor coding editor it's
2:14
actually using a open-source model which
2:17
is uh deepseek which is again a
2:20
open-source AI model for coding. So
2:23
right in the chat prompt you will simply
2:25
tell what sort of application you want
2:27
to develop. So I will say build a image
2:29
to PDF fullstack application in browser
2:33
and you simply submit and now the AI
2:36
will do the magic. It will start
2:38
generating the code.
2:40
So once it completes you will also see
2:42
the live preview. Same thing goes for
2:44
this as well. You exactly tell what sort
2:47
of application you want to develop. So I
2:49
will say build a I will simply say build
2:52
a QR code
2:55
generator and scanner web app in
2:59
browser.
3:01
So both these tools are completely free.
3:03
It's using the opensource AI model. So
3:06
you can see it has a VS code like
3:08
interface where on the left hand side
3:11
the code is generating and you also
3:13
seeing the live preview right here.
3:19
So you can see it's still generating the
3:22
code for you.
3:24
So I basically use this these platforms
3:26
which are completely open source because
3:29
I don't want to use the paid platforms.
3:32
So once it completes you will see this
3:34
application built. You can see image to
3:37
PDF converter right here. You can
3:39
basically select
3:41
the images that needs to convert.
3:47
Click on convert to PDF. Basically your
3:50
PDF conversion successful. Click on
3:52
download. So your PDF file will get
3:55
downloaded. So it's very simple
3:56
application.
3:58
Same goes with this QR uh generator as
4:02
well. So it's actually generating the
4:04
code for you and you are seeing the live
4:06
preview on the right hand side.
4:15
So according if you are listening to my
4:18
opinion definitely stop using those
4:20
tools paid tools instead use these free
4:23
tools which are completely open-source
4:26
and there is no restriction out there
4:27
you can build out unlimited applications
4:30
so once it completes you will see this
4:32
is a fully fleshed QR code generator
4:34
application so here you basically paste
4:38
the link.
4:41
You can control the size. Click on
4:43
generate QR code. You can control the
4:46
size as well
4:49
color as well. So everything is
4:51
customizable as you can see. Click on
4:52
download QR code and this PNG file will
4:55
get downloaded
4:57
and there is no restriction out there.
5:00
You can actually make unlimited
5:02
applications. So I will simply say build
5:04
a
5:06
premium looking
5:09
multiplayer chess game with computer
5:14
in browser. So I'm building out a
5:17
multiplayer chess game. So again simply
5:20
type the prompt here and now it will
5:24
start generating this react fullstack
5:27
react application which is a chess game
5:30
and you also have the option to load
5:33
your existing project as well. If you
5:35
want to load you can import your project
5:37
as well right here. You also have the
5:40
option to deploy this. If you click
5:42
publish your just give it a name and
5:45
your app will be published. So these are
5:48
my two favorite tools related to
5:50
software development on the internet.
5:53
Simply go to hugging face and I showed
5:55
you step-by-step process and you can
5:58
build out unlimited applications. So I
6:00
will say build a premium
6:03
scientific calculator in browser. So you
6:07
simply write the prompt and again it
6:10
will start.
6:33
So you can basically build out
6:35
applications in any language. Just
6:37
mention the language whichever
6:39
application you want to make. So we can
6:41
basically build out a fullyfledged
6:43
multiplayer chess game for us. You can
6:45
see that you can play this game now.
6:53
So basically computer is playing with me
6:55
as a multiplayer. I basically
6:57
controlling the white pieces. It is
6:59
controlling the black pieces. So you can
7:02
see a complete multiplayer chess game it
7:05
has built out. So it also shows you the
7:09
different moves which the respective
7:11
players are you can control the game as
7:14
well. So here also your premium
7:16
calculator is made here. You can see you
7:19
can also see full screen
7:22
you can see that. So every time you
7:24
generate a random design will come. So
7:26
this is your dark mode, light mode,
7:28
everything functionality is present
7:30
right here.
7:32
These are advanced controls which are
7:34
for scientific calculator. So these my
7:37
two favorite personal tools that I use
7:40
for software development. Definitely use
7:42
them. It's completely free and open
7:44
source.
