🦞 NyxCode Arena

AI Code Generation Benchmark — built IN NyxCode.

This benchmark page is itself a NyxCode app. The arena.nyx file compiles to the index.html you see deployed. That's the best proof that NyxCode works.

📊 Benchmark Results

Scenario	NyxCode	Next.js 15	FastAPI	Token Savings
Blog with Auth	2,921 tokens / 1 file	5,589 tokens / 8+ files	4,820 tokens / 7 files	-48% vs Next.js
Todo App	980 tokens / 1 file	2,450 tokens / 5+ files	2,100 tokens / 5 files	-60% vs Next.js
Chat (Realtime)	1,520 tokens / 1 file	4,200 tokens / 9+ files	3,600 tokens / 7 files	-64% vs Next.js

🔧 Build

npm i -g @fabudde/nyxcode
nyxcode build arena.nyx
# → dist-site/index.html

Or with the local compiler:

cd nyxcode-arena
node ../nyxcode/dist/cli.js build arena.nyx
cp dist-site/index.html index.html

🔬 Methodology

• Token counting: OpenAI cl100k_base tokenizer (tiktoken)
• Line counting: wc -l excluding blank lines and comments
• Fair comparison: Identical features in each scenario
• Blog tokens: Measured values from NyxCode v0.12.7 benchmark
• Todo/Chat tokens: Estimated using measured efficiency ratios
