myStage and myStagePlot. Two New Stage Plot Builders.

This past hour, I generated two stage-plot builders: 

https://pietercooreman.github.io/myStage/ (Claude Opus 4.7)
https://pietercooreman.github.io/myStagePlot/ (Gemini Pro)

Both received the same prompt, and both are very useful. No server. No database. No logins. No passwords. However, plots can easily be shared, downloaded, or uploaded at a later stage.

I like these kinds of small HTML/CSS/JS helper apps and tools. Gemini created its version for free. The Opus variant costed $5.17. That's it. Less than a year ago, you needed a paid subscription or had to pay a fee to generate stage plots like these. Today, a free or cheap $5 solution does the trick.

    That's interesting because I was about to pay 99€ a year for a subscription to a creative writing site.

    They have a tool that enables me to plot out a sequence of events, in chapters, and a timeline but 90% of the clever stuff they do is wasted on me.

    Everything I want is probably on one simple web page.

    Most likely yes indeed. You have to describe into the detail what your app needs to do, what exactly you need help with, how it should look like, etc. Be very complete and detailed. And finally make sure you specify that it needs to stick to HTML/CSS/JavaScript only. In 99% of the use cases, a static HTML/CSS/JS app does the trick.

    This way, you can also host it for free on Github Pages, as well as on some other free hosting services.

    Haha!! well this is pretty scary. I used simple AI on DuckDuckGo to suggest a script and a couple of refinements later it's a good start. I tried Claude but it wouldn't let me register for some reason. I used Gemini initially.

    The only thing that strikes me is that I am easily distracted from writing and these seems like a great way to soak up lots of time.

    Good fun though.

    OK, I'm officially addicted now. I will no longer be writing novels because I will be spending all my time tinkering with this code.
