The Standup Chaos Simulator

This is a submission for the DEV April Fools Challenge What I Built Most of us have sat in standups that somehow consumed time, generated stress, and produced zero meaningful decisions. So I decided to make a useless app to remember these moments in all their chaos and glory. Behold Standup Chaos Simulator , a web app that generates chaotic developer standups in a chat UI. Pick your team. Assign roles. Choose how doomed the sprint is. Select extra chaos events. Watch the meeting unfold message by message like a live team sync that should probably have been async. Once the fake standup finishes, the app gives you a Team Dysfunction Meter, lets you copy the transcript, and exports the whole thing as a shareable GIF.
