A hand-illustrated animation of a human life, with every frame drawn in code using JavaScript. The still shows a pregnant woman in a teal armchair beside a cherry-blossom window. Sunbeams cut across the wall, tea steams on a side table, and a yarn basket sits in the corner. Inked outlines, hatched textures and a warm palette make it look like a storyboard, not a canvas script. @chetaslua says it took two short prompts (about four lines), roughly 2 hours, 27 million tokens and max thinking effort, on what may be a new routed model.

Every frame is drawn procedurally in JavaScript, with no image assets
Illustration-grade detail: hatching, light shafts, steam and falling petals
Built from two roughly four-line prompts in about 2 hours at max thinking effort
