My 2-Year-Old Builds Browser Games. No, Seriously.

My son was two and a half when he built his first browser game. He couldn't read. He couldn't type. He couldn't tie his shoes. But he could sit next to me at the laptop and say: "Make a red car game! Make it jump!" So I typed his words into the VSC Cline extension, letting Claude Sonnet run with it. And a red car appeared on screen. He pressed the space bar, and it jumped. His face did the thing — that wide-open, full-body joy that kids have before the world teaches them to play it cool. Then he said: "Make it go faster. Can we make it a digger?" He was designing. He was iterating. He was two. I'm Mei. I've been a software engineer for 12 years. I taught myself to code, eventually got a Masters in Computer Science, and worked my way up to director of engineering. And yet, my most joyous accomplishment so far is helping my little guy explore, learn, and build things he's interested in. If you've felt something similar, I made something for you.
