About GPT Engineer
An open-source CLI tool that guides an LLM through an iterative build process to generate complete codebases from a user prompt; the project has also evolved into a commercial product (Lovable) for web-based interactive builds.
Key Features
- CLI-driven prompt flow that asks clarifying questions and builds code incrementally
- Persisted message logs, configurable AI 'identity', and extensible step pipeline
- Documentation and examples to scaffold full-project code generation
- Open-source repo and community forks with web/GUI commercial evolutions
