Has anybody had any experience developing extendscripts for FrameMaker using chatgpt (or similar AI)

I have read that one can use AI for generating code, but I have next to none experience with coding. I am merely curious as whether anybody has tried this with FrameMaker?

I have used ChatGPT for generating XSLT code, but not ExtendScript.

There was a short discussion some time ago about generating a list of variables, so fiddled around with a prompt for that in ChatGPT. Doesn't seem to work though. And since I have no idea what I am doing, I can't trouble shoot it either. This is what it looks like:

var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
var variables = doc.GetVarFmtNames();
var varList = "";

for (var i = 0; i < variables.length; i++) {
varList += variables[i] + ": " + doc.GetNamedVarFmt(variables[i]).Contents + "\n";
}

alert(varList);

When it comes to FrameMaker ExtendScript, AI is dumb. Here is a smart solution:

#target framemaker

var varFmtList, doc, varFmt;

varFmtList = [];

doc = app.ActiveDoc;

varFmt = doc.FirstVarFmtInDoc;
while (varFmt.ObjectValid () === 1) {
    varFmtList.push (varFmt.Name + ": " + varFmt.Fmt);
    varFmt = varFmt.NextVarFmtInDoc;
}

alert (varFmtList.join ("\r"));
