Do you use ChatGPT to write code?

I've been using AI to assist with coding since the public release of original GitHub Copilot and then GPT-3.5 few months after, and it completely blew my mind, even though the code quality back then was quite meh. However, the game changed with GPT-4, especially with its capability to handle large contexts. Now, it’s possible to input the content of entire mini-SaaS project to develop fully related code with ChatGPT. I've even developed a workflow to write as little code as possible. I automatically convert my project's code into a prompt and use it in a new chat with a feature request; it works well almost every time! At least, it does for my Django projects. I also developed a tool to simplify creating prompts from projects – snap2txt. If you're interested, you can check it out on my profile. I launched it as a product today for everyone. Do any of you use similar workflows to develop code with GPT?

@ruben_boonz is there really a significant difference compared to plain chatGPT? Don't get me wrong, maybe I can't cook it properly, but every time I triyng to set up custom GPT for any purpose it always work shittier or, in best case scenario, same as if I just send direct prompt to the classic chat.
