A new workflow turning voice notes into code using ChatGPT and Codex
A developer shared a new way to write code by starting with voice recordings. The spoken ideas go through AI tools and project trackers to become finished code. This shows how connecting different apps can speed up daily work.
The author explained how they record voice notes to capture raw ideas quickly. These notes are then sent to ChatGPT to organize the thoughts and draft initial code or instructions. Next, the organized plan is pushed to GitHub for review and linked to Linear, a project management tool, to track the progress. Finally, Codex is used to write or refine the actual code. This step-by-step connection of tools lets the person build software mostly by talking and reviewing, rather than typing everything from scratch.
