LLMs are great at style transfer, and this works surprisingly well for syntactic transformations too. I rewrote a small website's EJS templates to 1500 LOC of TSX with a oneshot in Claude. It took ~12 minutes, but it just worked. (TSX seems nicer than EJS for static analysis.)

I've realised that there are text transformations I can do in markdown that often aren't possible in rich text. E.g. from [foo bar](https://example.com/) to foo [bar](https://example.com/) Rich text usually forces me to remove the old link then highlight the new range.

Really cute Clojure project that builds a full parse tree (i.e including whitespace), allows code to transform the _abstract_ syntax tree, then splices the changed sexp whilst preserving source comments! https://vimeo.com/45695419 Enables code transformations that look like macros.
