I spent an evening on a fictitious web

I saw https://websim.ai a couple of weeks ago but didn’t quite get it, and then during some research on the creator and web developer ecosystems I came back to it and my mind was blown.
I spent the evening exploring a web that is full of applications and sites and only limited by URLs that I could think of (heh – this web never has a 404 or an unregistered domain).

I saw https://websim.ai a couple of weeks ago but didn't quite get it, and then during some research on the creator and web developer ecosystems I came back to it and my mind was blown.

I spent the evening exploring a web that is full of applications and sites and only limited by URLs that I could think of (heh - this web never has a 404 or an unregistered domain). It's a web that doesn't actually exist. I obviously went to my site first (note - I re-did this when I published it).

I then created a clone of everytimezone (I needed to arrange a meeting in the NYC and Mountain View)

And then I built an interactive globe showing population of some major cities

And then I wanted to see if I could create a simple site for a trip to Toya in Hokkaido

My wife and I created a site that showcases the beauty of North Wales to a Japanese audience (we didn't publish it)... and I just explored and explored.

The entire evening reminded me of when I first discovered blogging and would just go from site to site, reading and playing with the things people built.

I really do encourage everyone to try and play with https://websim.ai even if it takes a little while to get the hang of the UI for generating sites.
