Features

Lower Usage Costs

Dewhale utilizes prompt engineering techniques under the GPT-4 model to issue commands. The main cost involves the number of input and completion tokens. Our current prompt, found in prompts/ui-gen.md, includes instructions for shadcn/ui, lucide, and nivo charts.

If you do not need certain components (e.g., charts), you can reduce the API cost per generation by removing instructions from the prompt.

And you can also switch to other AI models for lower usage costs.

Easy Customization

Since Dewhale's prompt is open-sourced, you can refer to the existing prompt and replace it with other UI component libraries or coding styles as per your requirements.

You can also customize the whole workflow by yourself, e.g., a v0.dev-like Web App, and just use Dewhale's prompt as a core.

Seamless GitHub Integration

The generated code is stored on GitHub, inherently equipped with version control, code review, and collaborative features.

Additionally, you can use a private repo to keep your code generation results visible only to collaborators.
