I'm not a developer/engineer, or code savvy by any means, but lately I've been working with Codex to help me out with my Backdrop site and it's been a game changer. The model can get really creative sometimes and has even made updates to some of my modules to help me accomplish my goals.
For example, I was struggling with the font awesome module until Codex helped me realize that it didn't support the version that was required to provide the icons that I wanted. Codex made the changes, and even provided new functionality to the module such as adding a field for a custom CDN URL, and it worked like a charm. Since this these changes were helpful for my site, and helped update the module's compatibility with a newer version of font awesome, it made me wonder...is this worthy of sharing back with the author/community?
Is it ok to share AI generated code with the community? Honestly I have no idea what I'm doing, but I was able to get my work done and I think it could also be helpful to others. I'm curious how others feel about the subject.
Best, D.
