A while ago someone on this sub posted about an AI exclusively for building Drupal sites that could do anything like modules, bug fixes, full builds, the whole site build. It stuck with me, as Drupal is pitched as a way for non-tech people to build websites with but getting to that point requires tech skills to lay the foundation.

Can see my previous posts about my progress so far (basically able to get a custom Drupal site running in ddev just from prompts) but wanted to pause and get some feedback from people who'd actually use this:

- Is chat the right interface, or would you rather have something more structured (wizards, forms, config-driven)?

- Where's your "doing this myself" line drawn? Content modeling? Custom entities? Views? Theming?

- If generic LLMs + your own workflow already cover 80% of this, what would the remaining 20% need to look like?

Just want to know if this is worth finishing or if most of you have already solved this with Cursor/Claude Code and I'm building a solution to a shrinking problem.

In a previous post I shared how I used Claude to create a Drupal website just by prompting and tweaking via the Drupal admin pages. Wasn't a perfect or the "Drupal way" of a website but it worked. Was mainly just twig files with raw HTML in there so most edits require editing the twig files.

BUT I took this workflow and had Claude analyze my AI Drupal site builder codebase to see what it was missing, and oh was it missing a lot. It filled in gaps I didn't even know about and was a lot better than me hammering and hoping.

After adding the workflow and testing/tweaking I finally got it to create a fully customized and working Drupal site running in DDEV!!

Then the easy part of porting it over to my web server to finally update a website I built in 2020 and hadn't touched it since. The final (and very basic) Drupal website is at: webdevday.com and my AI Drupal website will eventually be at drupod.com
