How to use the Canvas feature in ChatGPT to generate simple web apps without coding. This tutorial demonstrates how to prompt for a cost calculator, add new features, and share the tool link with clients.
Iterate Without Manual Coding
The main advantage of Canvas is that you don't need to touch any code. If there's an error or you want to change pricing, simply tell ChatGPT via chat and it will update the tool for you in real-time.
Use Your Own Documentation
You can upload PDF or Excel files containing your own rate sheets. ChatGPT can extract data from these documents to build a calculator tailored specifically to your business.
Sharing Feature
The tools you build aren't just for personal use. By generating a link via the Share button, your clients can use the tool interactively to get their own price estimates.
