Event Overview
Codex Community Meetup Taipei is a developer community event focused on practical experiences using Codex. Participants share the projects they developed with Codex, the problems they encountered, and their actual usage methods and workflows.
Sharing How I Used Codex to Develop Election Radar
I shared my experience developing Election Radar, introducing how I used Codex in actual project development and how I applied it to development with newer frameworks such as Skip.
One example I shared was that when I used Skip to develop the Android version, the screen presentation or component behavior sometimes differed from what I expected, even though the program syntax was correct and there were no compilation errors. In the past, when I encountered this kind of situation, I usually needed to search the documentation myself and even read the framework's source code further to determine whether the current result came from an implementation issue or matched the behavior expected by the framework itself. Reading and tracing source code often took a considerable amount of time.
After using Codex, I had the Agent read the relevant Skip source code directly and analyze the implementation, helping confirm whether the situation I encountered actually involved a problem or was the behavior expected by the framework. If the current behavior matched the framework's design but differed from how I wanted it to appear on Android, I could directly describe the desired UI presentation, have the Agent find a suitable implementation approach from the source code and API, and then use conditional compilation to handle the behaviors required by iOS and Android separately.
This talk mainly focused on my experience actually using Codex to develop Election Radar, showing how I involved Codex in project development and used the Agent to read source code, analyze framework behavior, and help find suitable implementation approaches.
