Minimal Codex Project

Inspiration

I wanted to create the smallest possible project that still satisfies the full submission checklist: a runnable app, a README, a short demo video, a Codex development session reference, and a clear explanation of how AI tools were used.

What it does

Minimal Codex Project is a simple runnable web page that displays the project checklist and includes a self-check button. When the button is clicked, the page confirms that the project is running correctly.

How I built it

I built the project as a plain HTML file with embedded CSS and JavaScript. I used Codex to generate the minimal project structure, write the README, prepare the demo video, and keep the implementation intentionally small.

What I learned

I learned how useful Codex can be for quickly turning a submission checklist into a working project. I also learned that the simplest project structure is often enough when the goal is clarity and reproducibility.

Challenges

The main challenge was keeping the project minimal while still including every required deliverable. Another challenge was preparing the repository and demo video without adding unnecessary tooling or dependencies.

What's next

Next, I would publish the repository, upload the demo video to a public platform, and replace the placeholder links in the README with final submission links.
