LLMs.txt is also nonsense since it isn't adopted by any of the major AI players.

Does any of the LLM providers actually use llms.txt?

So it doesn't stay optional unfortunately. It quite a heavy dependency to include...

Adobe Flex with Adobe Catalyst. Design a GUI in Photoshop, export it to Flex/Flash to add interactivity.

Looked cool during demos. Got killed when Flash died.
