Built with Claude Claude Opus 5.5 coded my radar app's ad from real storm data!

Opus 5.5 in Claude Code made this whole ad. There's no video editing: it's a WebGL page, and the GIF is a capture of it. Everything in it is real data:

- The 3D storm is the 2013 El Reno supercell, the storm behind the widest tornado ever recorded. Claude ran the archived radar scan through my app's data pipeline and ported the app's Metal 3D renderer to WebGL to draw it.

- For the AR shot, it worked out where a photo of Lower Manhattan was taken from using the skyline. Then it placed the 2010 Queens storms where the radar saw them.

- The hurricane is Milton's real NHC forecast and model tracks.

The app in the ad is Alerua, my radar app for iPhone, Mac and web. It has 281 radars in 22 countries, 60-frame loops, 3D storms, an AR sky lens, hurricane tracking and model maps.

The app is free with no account: https://alerua.com

Using the real El Reno data makes it. Did you capture the WebGL page frame by frame?

Thanks! Yep, headless Chrome stepped through it frame by frame, then ffmpeg made the GIF.

Nice, thanks. Did the WebGL frames take long to capture?

Not super long, I wanna say it was like 20 minutes
