This Val Town project generates fake but plausible vinyl record releases with a single click. Each generated release includes:

• Artist name
• Album title
• Genre tags (3-5 tags)
• Release year (between 1955 and 2023)
• Record label
• A brief but interesting backstory about the album

• /vinyl-generator-api.ts - HTTP endpoint that uses OpenAI to generate fake vinyl releases
• /vinyl-generator-ui.ts - Frontend interface with a button to trigger generation

1. When the "Generate Vinyl Release" button is clicked, the UI makes a request to the API
2. The API uses OpenAI to generate a plausible vinyl release with all required information
3. If OpenAI is unavailable, the API falls back to a set of pre-defined vinyl releases
4. The generated data is returned to the UI and displayed in a visually appealing format

The application includes robust error handling:

• Fallback data if OpenAI API is unavailable
• Detailed error messages displayed to the user
• Retry functionality for failed requests

• OpenAI API for generating the vinyl release data
• Twind (Tailwind CSS in JS) for styling
• Vanilla JavaScript for the frontend functionality

Simply visit the UI endpoint and click the "Generate Vinyl Release" button to get a new vinyl release.
