A thread is collecting the many wildfire-tracking apps people are building in France — and the striking part is that most of them are nearly identical.
The author says they all use the same underlying data, making this a real-time example of how easy it has become to build and ship software with tools like Claude Code. The post calls it a strange moment: people are often unknowingly rebuilding an app that already exists, and some of the few projects that gain traction tend to come from creators who already have a large audience.
