Basically over for web programmers
 
Can you take this PSD file and convert it to HTML5 Responsive website?


I can definitely help you slice a PSD into a responsive HTML5 webpage — including:

✅ Exporting assets (buttons, icons, images)

✅ Converting the layout to HTML/CSS

✅ Making it responsive using media queries and flex/grid

✅ Optional: Adding animations, JS behavior, or Bootstrap/Tailwind

📌 Here's what I need from you:

Upload the PSD file (you can drag and drop it here).

Let me know if you want:

A specific framework (e.g., Tailwind, Bootstrap)?

Static layout or interactive features?

Exact behavior on mobile/tablet?

Once you upload the PSD, I’ll slice it and generate clean, production-ready HTML/CSS.




yes, this is something that’s recently become possible in this environment.
🆕 Here’s what changed:

As of mid-2024, I can now:

🔍 Read PSD files layer-by-layer (via internal tools in this chat).

🖼️ Export visual elements from PSDs (slicing).

🧱 Generate responsive HTML5 layouts from them.

💡 Combine it all into clean, developer-friendly code using Tailwind, Bootstrap, or custom CSS.

🕑 Why I couldn’t before:

Earlier versions of this environment didn’t support reading or extracting structured data from .psd files.

well, i only use ai to do boring grunt work for me and maybe help me find that stupid semicolon or dot that i missed in my code.. eventually, ai will get there and it will be able to do whatever you need, but i find it easier to write the code myself then to explain what i need exactly. chatgpt, however, is really good with mysql queries which helps a lot

But that's "coding" and webdesign, not so much "programming".
Where is the back end?
PHP, SQL etc...

speaking of programming, this is an awesome setup: https://omarchy.org

In the early 1990s when computers in the work place were becoming more common a lot of people were worried about how a lot of people were about to lose their jobs. "Why hire an accountant when you have Lotus 1-2-3 on computers?". Well, you still need someone to put the numbers into the computer.

We will still need people to create websites and write code. We will just need a less of them, and the entry barrier to those jobs will get lower.

It is what it is.

It's certainly over for software developers if the site operator doesn't value development or their product. You can cobble together a lot with AI, but it will mostly look like, in my experience, a badly done WordPress site plagued with plugins or something out of DHTML-era days.

I have used AI extensively as a method to rubber-duck and as a search engine for heavy documentation, but it hallucinates often and has no real understanding of the underlying principles of software programming. I don't really see AI filling that niche until we hit AGI. But then everything is over and we better have UBI or we're all homeless.

If your average user doesn't even know what sftp is, I'm almost certain they won't be able to telnet into a server and start running ssh commands, so in that respect, I don't think it's quite over yet for developers.

I've been testing a few different providers to see if it can improve my own development time. I'm not sure yet if it has, maybe I need a better prompt. Anyway I only did a basic bootstrap layout (1 page lander with hero carousel and scroll to section navigation), a quick query to pull records from a database and a function to display the results in said layout using lazy load. So, technically, it did provide both front end (html,css,javascript) and backend programming (php code) from a prompt.

Normal time (100% finished links/text/images/etc) without AI:

Maybe 2-3 hours.

Time with AI:

Maybe 2 hours. But, I had to fine tune things and replace placeholder images as well, so maybe closer to 3 hours.

I really don't think your average user is going to have the slightest clue on how any of it works, or how to piece it together. I know there are some services available that will put it all together for you, but they will still have to pay a monthly fee to use it. Maybe the DIY types will try it, then realize it's not as easy or quick as they thought.

Either way, I don't think AI is going away any time soon, so probably best to figure out how to use it to your advantage.

CyberHustler 07-21-2025 02:37 PM

At this stage in the game, nope. AI is magical, but for magical people. Stupid people will always be stupid people, vibing themselves into obscure oblivion as usual... respectfully.

My brother published a game which required him to set up 2 servers. It gave him the step by step. I'm a non coder running scripts in Python that create json databases and organize millions of combinations of things and it gave me the exact step by step to install all libraries and other things. I even have it spit out code that has proper headers so I don't have to cmd my way around goofily.

I really don't understand when people say nobody will figure this stuff out, they have and are. Nearly every smart friend I know is doing something with AI and each of them are different than the last. I'm building magical things and even I know I'll get left in the dust in the future, I can't imagine not even getting in the game.

This is as big as when the internet was invented. There is no way you aren't sleeping on what is possible with what you just said.

Oh, trust me, I'm definitely utilizing it in more ways than one. To give you an example, when wix or shopify came out (the do it yourself websites), did it wipe out programmers? Absolutely not, in fact, it opened up an entire new market. I won't get into all that, but it's just an example.

Now, on the other hand, do I think AI will take over certain jobs, ABSOLUTELY 100%! Do I think it helps level the playing field in competing with large corps that have whored out and taken over every fuckin industry, 4 sure!

What do you mean they had zero internet skills? They were able to open a browser and as you say use one of the AI services to enter some prompts, right? That's *some" skills. I'm guessing these people also registered a domain, got a server, etc. Otherwise, what was the point of creating the game? Is it all for fun (games do make money), or are these friends of yours trying to run a business? Why not share a link to the game?

Mindi "bless her heart" needed info on buying a domain name. Heads up, you don't really need cursor for that, you'll get the same info from google. But, either way I think it's safe to say you're not really be super tech savvy, but sounds like you have the DIY mentality and persistence to make it happen! :thumbsup Please keep us updated on your progress Mindi, and the hours that it takes you to complete this task and would love to see the final product. Seriously, genuinely curious.

The question is, how many will take the time to "Do it Yourself" like Mindi or your friends? Only time will tell I guess...

Like I said, there have been MANY do it yourself website builders available on the market, yet the need for programmers is still here, that's my only point. Well, my other point was that since I can do it myself, or do it with the help of using AI, I did not see a huge time saving advantage with this example. I'm sure with other examples, it will be much quicker.

I don't sell/offer programming services, so I won't be affected either way. Yeah, I'm sure some will use AI to build something magical, no doubt. But, the topic of this post was "It's Basically Over for Web Programmers", I personally don't think so. :2 cents:

The fuck are you on about? My brother knows how to use AI, so does the entire civilized world.

When talking about my friends a good chunk of them did 0 online business, do not build websites, etc. They are already using it for far more than you give things credit for and your stance is really confusing.

Everyone will take advantage of tools to do what they couldn't yesterday or save money. People don't need to know how to telnet into a server if they can ask AI on their phone which responds like SIRI.

We are living in a time where if your grandma was motivated enough, she could build her own online empire selling scented adult diapers to fellow seniors all with the AI... it would all depend on her level of motivation. The AI could take care of 99.9% of everything guided with step-by-step instructions. Patience and willpower is all it would take!

This is insane. I had never run an instance of Python in my life and I got a python script made with ChatGPT.

"Install Python and run this."

I repeated HOW until it was up and working, a few minutes. I did what it said, pasted the errors I got back and it walked me through it like a baby.

I told you that my brother who had never touched a server set 2 up for a game with AI instructions, it even recommended the hosts to use for the services required.

So again, I have no idea why you are posting this nonsense and AI is already obliterating programming jobs.

AI is rapidly increasing its role in code generation. Within the next few years, estimates range from 50% to 95% of code being AI-generated. Specifically, Microsoft's CTO predicts that within five years, 95% of all code will be AI-generated.

Is this "prediction" your source of all these programming jobs that are getting obliterated, or do you have something else? Maybe some traditional computer programming jobs are in decline, but software development roles remain in demand, particularly in areas like AI. Who do you think builds these tools that allow non-coders like yourself to build cool stuff?? :1orglaugh

And, go ahead and point out where I said it's ineffective or really hard? I said an average user that does not know what ftp, ssh, or telnet is probably won't bother.

As someone who can code without AI, I don't see a huge benefit or time saving tool yet. But, I haven't fully explored, so maybe with bigger projects it will help. For the record, I have already said AI can do some amazing things and is moving very quickly and I do use it for certain things.

Will some people use AI instead of a programmer, sure. But, you also keep ignoring the facts -- website builders (no coding necessary) have been available for years. Yet, people still have websites built by coders/programmers, even though they have been able to do it themselves for years. Why?

:thumbsup Awesome!

WP dominates in both usage and attacks, so you want to make sure and secure it as best as possible. I don't know which host you went with, but make sure they proactively block malicious traffic, have good firewalls setup, scan for threats, and apply security patches automatically. Ideally, they do daily backups in the event something goes rouge with your site, you can easily just roll back to a good working version. I'm personally not a fan of wp, but at the very least be sure to keep it updated (including whatever plugins you install). I think they offer auto updates as well, so you may want to look into that. No idea what you will be using it for (adult / mainstream / blog), but there's tons of plugins and designs already available that will allow you to do just about anything with it without much knowledge.

You may want to restrict access to admin login based on your IP. If you don't have a dedicated IP, and it changes frequently, you can always use a wildcard. I'm not sure what you got cursor for, but you can probably ask it to write up some code for that, or ask your host, or pm me and I'll send you something you can add. I know you didn't ask for any suggestions but thought I would offer a few basic tips to help. Good job and good luck!

Maybe interesting: free website templates https://html5up.net/

Plus, there are sites with free wordpress templates; different looks and designs. Fairly simple to experiment with these.

Dopetrope and Zerofour are both nice simple clean designs. :thumbsup

I've been testing a few different providers to see if it can improve my own development time. I'm not sure yet if it has, maybe I need a better prompt. Anyway I only did a basic bootstrap layout (1 page lander with hero carousel and scroll to section navigation), a quick query to pull records from a database and a function to display the results in said layout using lazy load. So, technically, it did provide both front end (html,css,javascript) and backend programming (php code) from a prompt.

Normal time (100% finished links/text/images/etc) without AI:

Maybe 2-3 hours.

Time with AI:

Maybe 2 hours. But, I had to fine tune things and replace placeholder images as well, so maybe closer to 3 hours.

I really don't think your average user is going to have the slightest clue on how any of it works, or how to piece it together. I know there are some services available that will put it all together for you, but they will still have to pay a monthly fee to use it. Maybe the DIY types will try it, then realize it's not as easy or quick as they thought.

Either way, I don't think AI is going away any time soon, so probably best to figure out how to use it to your advantage.

I even have it spit out code that has proper headers so I don't have to cmd my way around goofily.

I really don't understand when people say nobody will figure this stuff out, they have and are. Nearly every smart friend I know is doing something with AI and each of them are different than the last. I'm building magical things and even I know I'll get left in the dust in the future, I can't imagine not even getting in the game.

This is as big as when the internet was invented. There is no way you aren't sleeping on what is possible with what you just said.

What is my stance? I don't think it's over yet for programmers .... I won't bother to explain why again, since the reasons are all in my previous comments.

Where did I say I was for hire?

I LITERALLY RESPONDED TO YOUR NONSENSE CLAIMS AND ASININE BULLSHIT .

The fuck does this have to do with politics? You being a fucking moron is obvious and nothing you said is true in any way.

So like I said, you're sleeping on what AI is and will be used for and by who.

I mean every sentence is dumber than the last. You didn't say you were for hire, I was pointing out how non curious and retarded you are on this subject to emphasise how insane you are being. Your multiple attempts at moving the goalposts are not mocked only because there aren't 1000 users here to laugh at you for the next 10 years. :1orglaugh

You post empty garbage non-sense, like: I'm trying to move the goalpost, or every sentence is dumber that the last, non curious and retarded ... what in the actual fuck is your dumbass talking about?! I really don't like engaging with idiots, so try and provide more details please.

It's pretty clear you certainly do talk (write) a lot, but provide very little substance, and you do it in a boastful way. You're like a confused rambler posting aimless shit you copy from cursor. You have not answered any questions with facts, have you? Let's try again, shall we...

1) What's your source of the claim that programming jobs are being obliterated?

2) It's clear people have been / are still hiring programmers even with the DIY web building services that have been available for years.

3) Where's the demo of these games your brother created? No, can't share that? How about a demo of the blackmonster game? No, can't share that either?

4) Where did I say AI is ineffective or really hard?

Apparently you also missed the other comments in this thread. And since you have a hard time reading / following along, let me re-post one thing I said:

For the record, I have already said AI can do some amazing things and is moving very quickly and I do use it for certain things.

It's great that the people involved in AI are so nice.

Jesus fucking Christ this forum is dog shit now.

The game is irrelevant, it has nothing to do with GFY and I don't share personal shit here. He lives in another state and does his own thing but he wanted to make one of his many games multiplayer and had to set up servers for it so he used AI.

It literally has fuck all to do with what I said in response to your dumb ass shit. And the stats on programming jobs are public and oft discussed you brain damaged fucking ape. Go build some WordPress plugins.

PS, for the 1000th time I am not a programmer but there are people here that can vouch for what I do with code and I've hired programmers going back 22 years so I'm not some uninformed goof. You have 0 imagination and no sense. GFY

[center]�� BLACKMONSTERS SAVAGE ROASTING APP ��


Built a completely bonkers web application that takes photos of my stupid, slow dog BlackMonsters and overlays them with brutally honest quotes about their complete lack of intelligence. What started as a simple "add text to image" idea turned into a full-blown social network with user accounts, friends systems, and ranking algorithms. Because why do something simple when you can massively over-engineer it AND roast your dog with 1 million different combinations? ��

Not really fitting since you haven't adapted since 1993.
