Then: 1 month, 1 template. Now: 1 week, 15 templates. Same designer, different workflow.

I wrote up how I built no-code.supply: fifteen website templates, each with its own brand, in HTML and React, and some in Framer too. Claude Code did most of the typing. I did the directing.

Going from one template a month to fifteen a week is wild. How much of the design direction did you still do by hand?

An interlocking gear-train workbench with true ratios and brass-blueprint charm.

I built this project to test An interlocking gear-train workbench with true ratios and brass-blueprint charm. The core engineering challenge was sustaining uncompromised 60 FPS rendering using Canvas2D while handling continuous user interaction without framework overhead.

WHAT I WAS TESTING: I focused on two core engineering benchmarks:

Real-time gear mesh torque transfer and escapement tick mechanics

Interactive placement of interlocking brass gears with variable ratios

THE TECHNICAL SIDE: Implements true involute tooth profiles computed via parametric equations. Rotational speeds are propagated through an adjacency graph of connected gear nodes. Everything executes in the browser using Canvas2D, Mechanical Gear Physics, Involute Gear Tooth Profiles. No third-party frameworks, no heavy runtime bundles, and zero external tracking.

WHAT I LEARNED: Floating-point precision drift caused gear teeth to gradually overlap after several minutes. Clamping phase angles to gear pitch intervals solved the drift. Finding the sweet spot between mathematical precision and frame budget took careful profiling, but the result runs at a steady 60 FPS even on modest hardware.

TRY IT YOURSELF: The live build is deployed on Netlify. Open it in your browser, test the controls, and observe the render response times.
