I initially wanted to build the TimelockRecovery.com feature for Sparrow Wallet, one of the most popular wallets for advanced Bitcoin management, including multisig, air-gapped wallets, and more.
But Sparrow is written in Java, and I've never worked on a large Java project, let alone one with a UI.
So I implemented it in Python for Specter and Electrum instead.
This week, I fed Grok and Fable the source code from Specter and Electrum and told them to replicate the mechanism in Java for Sparrow.
A few prompts later, with some tiny improvements, and it works perfectly! 🤩
As a developer, it feels like knowing a few words of Latin and suddenly being able to speak any Latin-derived language. We live in amazing times!
