@milad_akarie I‘ll ping you if I have something shareable 🤝

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

The cue package by @milad_akarie is amazing.
Properly cooked. 👨‍🍳

The debugging tools are the cherry on top.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@milad_akarie I am building a little run club app as side project.
Not much content, so nice animations really shine. 🌞

@syncause Gotta be honest, my old take aged like milk. Nowadays it happens rarely and there is always a way to get back on track.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

From awe to frustration in a few prompts.

If AI Coding works, it's amazing.
If it fails to accomplish the task and just screws up even more on every prompt, it's just painful to watch.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@MichaelMartocci For mobile apps you can just tell Claude to take a screenshots using the cli tools.

[Jorge Castillo @JorgeCastilloPr]

How to finally become the 10x engineer:

Add WarCraft 3 sounds to Claude hooks to get alerts when it finishes a task or needs permission.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@ABausG @LeanCodePl Oh good call, wanted to do that.
Right now I just have a small skill that tells codex how to send hot reload commands and how to take screenshots without any dependencies.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Just tell ai how to hot reload and how to take pictures of your simulator. 👀

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Was excited about this, but looks like this does not really work for #flutter.

The Figma MCP calls a JS snippet that must be run in a browser. Seems to be strictly DOM based.

[Josef Wilhelm 💙 @josef__wilhelm]

I build a game with Claude Code.

Total build time 2 1/2h.
Flutter Flame engine.

Software engineering is broken.

You can try it here.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Just saw this https://t.co/sp7MOlVALW on the #flutter subreddit.

Very much looking forward to seeing it in action 👀

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

In my https://t.co/4YpHqnfSIS I put that codex should ask me, instead of assuming and that it should create specs before coding.

The result was an endless loop of it asking me for approval. Even when I told it to just start, it NEVER started coding.

wtf?

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Is there a git-less codex wrapper like Claude Cowork?

Asking for my non technical friends that all have OpenAI subscriptions.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@ingoa_dev Sounds like trying to get a toddler to eat their veggies by pretending it's an airplane. 🫠

These guys should know what they want.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

I really love agentic coding, but sometimes the work is reduced to just the unpleasant parts.

Today: clearing up ambiguously worded features from product management… 🫠

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@ingoa_dev Feels like they themselves don't really know what they want...

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

@ingoa_dev Yes.
Obviously having it as local files is the best, which is why @obsdmd is the goat.

Can't even do cmd+a to get a whole Notion document copied ffs....

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Notion and me are never going to be friends …

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

This is also amazing for reproducing setups over multiple projects.

I created a cloud scheduler & cloud function setup to send push notifications and can just give the command history to claude and let it configure other projects.

[Chris Marx @ChrisMarxDev]

Agents being able to call gcloud is such a blessing.

Having to deal with the console ui to e.g. create a service account is such pain in the butt.
