AI-Powered Prompt-to-Production Platform for Automated React Application Generation and Cloud Deployment
Abstract: The proliferation of large language models (LLMs) has fundamentally altered the landscape of automated software engineering. However, a significant “deployment chasm” persists between the generation of code artifacts and their realization as production-grade cloud applications. Traditional workflows are marred by the “DevOps Tax”: the high operational overhead of environment configuration, dependency resolution, and infrastructure provisioning. This paper presents a novel, technically adept architecture that bridges this gap through a unified …
