Chesnut.ai — About this site
A portfolio, a live analytics platform, a data-animation studio, and a handful of curiosities — all one Next.js app. Everything here was built by talking to Claude Code in the terminal, reviewed on localhost, and shipped to Vercel. This page is the type specimen and parts list.
In the tradition of the printer’s colophon
The site as a
designed object.
Ruled lines, mono labels, oldstyle figures, and a warm bone ground — borrowed from the printed page and from a certain house in Palm Springs with a scalloped roof.
Live analytics for a simulated B2B SaaS company — 35 metrics across revenue, health, and operations, all real queries against Supabase.
The AI book-flipping tool that grew up here, moved out, and became a standalone product at lumilexicon.com.
IRS nonprofit filings parsed into maps, treemaps, and compensation tables via the ProPublica API.
A 17-slide Google Slides deck assembled by an automated Claude pipeline — zero manual edits.
Manim-rendered SaaS metric animations, generated and refined conversationally.
A job application shipped as a desktop operating system, Winamp player included.
I talk to Claude Code through the terminal using Wispr Flow, a speech-to-text tool. I describe what I want, Claude writes the code, I review it live on localhost. We plan, we document, we run sub-agents in parallel to explore and validate. That’s the whole workflow — and this redesign was built the same way.
Describe → build → review on localhost → ship to Vercel
