Asterism Relay Network Planning (Codex build)

The Codex build of the same benchmark task: a deep-space communications planning console with a network map, a 24-hour timeline, link inspectors, relay deployment, and baseline comparison.

About this project

This is one of a pair of projects that both seek to implement the same benchmark web application task. The goal of creating these two projects was to compare the implementations produced by Claude Code and Codex from the exact same prompt. These types of comparisons are performed all the time between various models, and I wanted to get some hands-on experience with what that might be like. While I found them interesting, the complexity of the resulting products made them somewhat difficult to analyze. Both applications seemed good and met the completion criteria, but they definitely took slightly different approaches to the problem.
