Same app test: coming soon
We will write one spec, a habit tracker with login, and build it in each tool on its free tier. Every build gets scored the same way:
- Time to a working app
- Credits, tokens or messages used
- Bugs found in a fixed checklist
- Whether it deploys to a public URL
Results will be published here with screenshots and the exact prompts used.
