OpenAI Apps Handbook
I went swimming in the ocean of OpenAI's Apps SDK… and came back with a handbook! Over the past few weeks, I’ve been diving deep into the ChatGPT App SDK: exploring its APIs, tools, and hidden gems. Along the way, I built, broke, fixed, and reimagined a bunch of little experiments. P.S: Indeed OAIs official docs is the source of truth, this is just a rough notebook Maybe, I can create a CLI tool to scaffold app?
In plain words
OpenAI Apps Handbook is a developer resource that documents exploration of the ChatGPT App SDK, including its APIs, tools, and practical examples. Created by a developer who experimented extensively with the SDK, it serves as an informal guide for developers building with OpenAI's tools. The handbook combines API documentation with real-world experiments and examples, complementing official OpenAI documentation with practical insights and code samples.

Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
