A use it with web development by describing what I want something to look like and have it generate a React component based on my description.

Is what it gives me the final product? Sometimes, but it’s such a help to knock out a bunch of boilerplate and get me close to what I want.

Also generating documentation is nice. I wanted to fill out some internal wiki articles to help people new to the industry have something to reference. Spent maybe an hour having a conversation asking all of the questions I normally run into. Cleaned up the GPT text, checked for inaccuracies, and cranked out a ton of resources. That would have taken me days, if not weeks.

At the end of the day, GPT is better with words than I am, but it doesn’t have the years of experience I have.

Well shit, didn’t know that was a thing.

So far my usage is enough to keep me on the free smtp2go plan. But that’s worth keeping in mind if my needs grow.

ProtonMail for regular email + smtp2go for services to send outbound email.
