TasteCode brings Codex, Claude Code and Grok into one open-source coding workspace, with a built-in design agent. Go from an idea to a considered visual direction, layout and copy, then build with your coding agent. For everyday development, your chats, terminal, browser preview, git diffs and checkpoints are right there too. Public beta for Windows and macOS (Apple Silicon).

How did Astra change the scope or ambition of what you built?

ChatGPT 6 Astra helped us a lot building all the things for the desktop app. It used computer vision to test the whole app with all edge cases and helped us with the design agent as well. It was capable of designing the desktop app, and creating the skill workflows all correct and great looking. With this model we were able to ship way faster and better things!

hey everyone, Leon here :) Karol (x.com/blueemi99) and I (x.com/lexnlin), the creators of TasteSkill, are launching our new product TasteCode! we're building a coding workspace that cares about design as much as getting the code to work. the part i'm most excited about is our design agent. give it a website idea and it helps work through the brief, visual direction, layout and copy before your coding agent builds it. those decisions deserve more thought than adding “make it look modern” at the end of a prompt lol. and it's also a workspace for your everyday coding. use Codex, Claude Code and Grok with your chats, terminal, browser preview, diffs and checkpoints together. TasteCode is open source, and we're launching the public beta for Windows and macOS (Apple Silicon). still early, so we'd love to see what you build and hear where it falls short :) what's the thing you keep having to fix in AI-generated websites?
