GoldenOrb: AI Generated UI Components that Run Everywhere via WebAssembly
Patrick Smith
Components are everywhere: React, Web Components, and of course Phoenix. Orb lets you write WebAssembly in Elixir. This talk shows how you can use Orb with LLMs in Livebook to generate interactive UI components compiled to WebAssembly that will run server-side in Elixir, in the browser via Web Components, or both via LiveView. AI is notorious for hallucinating: here the constraints of WebAssembly sandboxing & ARIA actually help as we have strict limits we can test the validity & accessibility of the generated code against.
