🚀 What MiniCode Does
MiniCode is a light terminal app that helps you work with code from a simple text screen. It is built for learning, testing ideas, and seeing how an AI coding flow works.
It gives you a clean setup for:
- asking for code help
- running tool-based steps
- moving through tasks in a loop
- trying the app in a terminal view
MiniCode has versions in:
- TypeScript
- Python
- Rust
This makes it useful for people who want to compare how the same idea works in different languages.
💻 What You Need
MiniCode runs on Windows and works best on a recent version of Windows 10 or Windows 11.
You will need:
- a Windows PC
- internet access
- a terminal or command prompt
- enough free space for the app and files it may create
If you plan to use the TypeScript version, you may also need Node.js. The Python version may need Python. The Rust version may need Rust tools. For most users, the easiest path is to start with the Windows setup from the main project page.
