Show HN: A minimal, ad-free World Cup web-app for fixtures and live scores

Hi all! With the World Cup around the corner, and being a football fan, I went looking for apps that would give me a detailed overview of groups, matches categorized by group or team, a daily timeline of when games happen that day (especially useful for us in Europe, since some games run pretty late), and a way to follow my favorite team or teams. The problem I ran into was that most apps out there are pretty bloated — like, really bloated. The ones that weren't either didn't focus on the World Cup specifically, or were ridden with betting ads and ads in general. So I built a very minimal ad-free (mostly tailored for myself) World Cup web app for fixtures and live scores. The fixture data comes from the openfootball/worldcup.json project - https://github.com/openfootball/worldcup.json. I hope you find it helpful, would love any feedback.

I used this for a team hackathon and it took way too much time to build understanding of the codebase, wrote too many agent transcripts and spent way too much token during generation. It also failed multiple times when either generating agent transcript or extracting things from agent transcript - once citing "The agent transcripts are too complex to extract from" - quite confounding considering it's the transcript you created. For what we were trying to build - few small sets of features - using gsd was an overkill. The idea was to get some learnings whether gsd could be useful - for our case it was a strong no. Learning for me: don't overcomplicate - write better specs, use claude plan mode, iterate.
