Replit and Stanford HAI published Spellburst, a peer-reviewed research paper presented at UIST 2023. Spellburst is an LLM-powered creative coding environment that lets users create, modify, and merge p5.js sketches using natural language prompts and hybrid controls. The paper is based on a formative study with 10 expert generative artists and an evaluative study with various experts.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://replit.com/blog/spellburst:

> Spellburst is a large language model (LLM) powered creative coding environment designed for exploration and iteration that features: 1. A canvas where users can create, modify, and merge p5.js sketches 2. Natural language prompts to guide the art generation, like make the lights brighter 3. Seamless switching between coding directly, prompting, and hybrid controls for tweaking how exactly the prompts affect the code they generate.
