Challenge
The hard part was not only getting an LLM to produce a page. It was stripping away the extra commentary models love to add, saving clean code, and serving the result reliably from Calvin’s own server.
A local-LLM-assisted one-shot page maker: prompt in, HTML out, then serve the generated file with as little sharing friction as possible.
AI Page Generator is a small publishing utility for making quick one-file web pages and sharing them without forcing the recipient through setup or tooling.
The hard part was not only getting an LLM to produce a page. It was stripping away the extra commentary models love to add, saving clean code, and serving the result reliably from Calvin’s own server.
A generation flow with a stricter system prompt, cleanup logic that extracts the usable HTML, and a server route that can publish generated files under the view path for easy sharing.
This pushed the boundary between “toy generator” and “useful web tool.” It taught more about exposing server functionality safely while keeping the user path simple: make page, publish page, send link.
A quick demo clip from the original project page, kept inside the same hard-edged terminal frame instead of burying it below the writeup.
Same visual system as the main ToadTech revamp: hard-edged, terminal-ish, and allergic to generic portfolio gloss.
