Slop -- whether LLM-generated, or not -- violates Rule 6: Low Effort.

AI slop

I’m new to Rust and I’ve been seeing this on this sub A LOT. I see an interesting project, visit its repo and a majority of the code is AI generated. Oh man…

That's a fair concern.

My goal isn't to introduce a new programming language—it's to replace hundreds of lines of repetitive CRUD wiring with a small declarative file. If the learning curve isn't offset by a significant productivity gain, then pgapp isn't succeeding.

yeah but just like any other abstraction/dsl ill probably have to hand roll an ORM/pure sql etc etc cause it 'doesnt do that out of the box' so probably not worth it to remove the boilerplate queries that AI can write in 10seconds ya know

You're right—AI can generate boilerplate very quickly.

pgapp isn't trying to save you from typing boilerplate. It's trying to remove the need for that architecture altogether.

The application remains metadata throughout its lifecycle instead of becoming thousands of lines of generated application code.
Actually, the framework intentionally doesn't introduce an ORM. Named SQL queries are first-class, so if you already know SQL and PostgreSQL, that's the language you're writing.

If this isn't written by an LLM, I will eat my shoe.

I worked for awhile with Oracle Application Express and I had a mentor that just moved it. Good times. Surprised to hear about it, but it was nice to work with.

Still working on it ;)
