After 2.5 years of nights and weekends, I finally shipped my Angular view builder

I started building this on January 21st, 2024. After work, weekends, holidays whatever free time I could find. Two and a half years later, I finally decided to ship it as a beta.

The idea is simple you drag components onto a canvas, watch the JSON update live, and what gets rendered isn't some black box abstraction it's real Angular components. The exact same ones that run at runtime. No wrappers, no half broken layer sitting on top of your component model.

Since it's a beta, there are almost certainly bugs I haven't caught myself. So I'd genuinely appreciate it if you gave it a try and told me what you think what works, what doesn't, what's missing.

A couple of technical notes if you're curious the landing page is built with VitePress. The documentation I wrote with some AI help not out of laziness, but because good docs need clear, fluent writing, and that's not my strongest suit.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes a few minutes to check it out. 🙏
