## Features | ||
|
||
- **Text Splitting**: Automatically divides long texts into Mastodon-friendly chunks of up to 500 characters. | ||
- **Manual Splitting**: Insert `---` into your text to indicate manual split points. | ||
- **Link, Hashtag, and Username Formatting**: Enhances readability by auto-formatting links, hashtags, and complete usernames. | ||
- **Adjustable Character Limit**: Customize the chunk size as per your preference. | ||
- **Real-time Preview**: Visualize how your text will appear as separate Mastodon posts. | ||
- **Copy to Clipboard**: Quick copy buttons for every chunk, which turn green upon being clicked to indicate a successful copy action. | ||
- **Dynamic Subtitles**: Catchy, rotating subtitles to make your Mastothread experience memorable. | ||

||
## AI-Guided Development: A Proof of Concept | ||
|
||
Mastothread may serve as an example of how artificial intelligence can aid and accelerate the software development process. The development of this version of the app was guided by OpenAI's GPT-4, a large language model. | ||
|
||
In this process, the human developer posed problems, asked questions, and described the desired features and functionalities of the application. GPT-4 then provided solutions, answered queries, generated code snippets, and suggested optimal ways to implement these features. | ||
|
||
Every single line of code was written by ChatGPT4. | ||
