Full-stack TypeScript. Building AI tools @

[👾Ro-NaN👾 @RonanCodes]

JS is the most versatile programming language out there.

With JS you can build:
- Frontend (Angular/React/Vue)
- Backend (Node/Nest)
- Database (Mongo)
- Mobile (Ionic/ReactNative/NativeScript)

There is so much cross over that you can excel quickly in many areas.

Cloudflare has acquired Vite / VoidZero

Void is vite's fullstack Intertia-like framework.

This gives Cloudflare control over the entire stack. They have all the primitives from frontend/backend framework, linting, testing, formatting, JS runtime, db, kv, inference, blob storage, access, etc...

smart move. A tidy package they can hand to an LLM to make a site.

I am absolutely more productive using agents. I don't know the factor but it's large. However much of that productivity is spent tuning the agents and hardening the product. I'm guessing 30%-40%.

Some might consider that a waste; but I don't. The software I'm creating nowadays is vastly more robust than I'd ever been able to create manually.

I don't mean that the code is better. I mean the surrounding tests are vastly better. I have a higher degree of confidence than I ever had manually -- even when I used very disciplined TDD and Acceptance testing.

And then there's the ability to quickly reorganize the modules and the architecture while keeping those robust tests running. That is a tremendous boon.

@karpathy Amazing news! 🚀

/grill-me is my most popular skill ever.

I get 5-10 messages a day about how it’s changed people’s workflows for the better

But… I’ve stopped using it for code. Here’s the improved version:

[👾Ro-NaN👾 @RonanCodes]

Super excited for Megathon in my own neighbourhood of Oostenburg, Amsterdam 📍

500+ builders from Europe coming together to share ideas, build, and ship.

From business & design to developers & founders, everyone’s welcome.

Bring your own idea or join a team.

June 19 - 21 🇳🇱

This is the the quote I've been citing a lot recently.

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

This works really well btw, at the end of your query ask your LLM to "structure your response as HTML", then view the generated file in your browser. I've also had some success asking the LLM to present its output as slideshows, etc.

More generally, imo audio is the human-preferred input to AIs but vision (images/animations/video) is the preferred output from them. Around a ~third of our brains are a massively parallel processor dedicated to vision, it is the 10-lane superhighway of information into brain. As AI improves, I think we'll see a progression that takes advantage:

1) raw text (hard/effortful to read)
2) markdown (bold, italic, headings, tables, a bit easier on the eyes) <-- current default
3) HTML (still procedural with underlying code, but a lot more flexibility on the graphics, layout, even interactivity) <-- early but forming new good default
...4,5,6,...
n) interactive neural videos/simulations

Imo the extrapolation (though the technology doesn't exist just yet) ends in some kind of interactive videos generated directly by a diffusion neural net. Many open questions as to how exact/procedural "Software 1.0" artifacts (e.g. interactive simulations) may be woven together with neural artifacts (diffusion grids), but generally something in the direction of the recently viral https://t.co/z21CP5iQfu

There are also improvements necessary and pending at the input. Audio nor text nor video alone are not enough, e.g. I feel a need to point/gesture to things on the screen, similar to all the things you would do with a person physically next to you and your computer screen.

TLDR The input/output mind meld between humans and AIs is ongoing and there is a lot of work to do and significant progress to be made, way before jumping all the way into neuralink-esque BCIs and all that. For what's worth exploring at the current stage, hot tip try ask for HTML.

@TheGeneralistHQ @biilmann It was a great event!

[👾Ro-NaN👾 @RonanCodes]

@borvibe Super, sounds great!

[Alex Finn @AlexFinn]

Every app I vibe code has the tech stack below

Easy for beginners and free to start

If you've never built an app before, just paste this list into Codex or Claude Code and you'll be good to go:

Web framework: NextJS
Hosting: Vercel
Database: Convex
Auth: Clerk
Payments: Stripe
Styling: Tailwind
AI: logic- OpenAI, creativity- Claude, cheap tasks- Gemini Flash 3
Emails: Resend
Design apps with: GPT image gen 2 + Claude Design
AI I use to build it all: Codex desktop app w/ GPT 5.5

Any questions let me know!

@steipete I tried Ghostty but went back to iTerm, couldn’t see the appeal.

[👾Ro-NaN👾 @RonanCodes]

@robertoecf @steipete iTerm for the win 🏆

Morning Bathrobe Rant: AI out-codes you; deal with it.

[Viktor Oddy @viktoroddy]

Claude Design is insane.

❤️‍🔥Just recorded a 18-min tutorial on how to build animated, award-winning websites with Claude Design + Opus 4.7!

[Bruno @use_bruno]

Postman removed free team collaboration.
Bruno collections live in Git.
No seat limits. No BS.

Migrate in minutes.

[Claude @claudeai]

In Claude Code, the new /ultrareview command runs a dedicated review session that reads through your changes and flags what a careful reviewer would catch.

We've also extended auto mode to Max users, so longer tasks run with fewer interruptions.

[Boris Cherny @bcherny]

Opus 4.7 is in Claude Code today. It's more agentic, more precise, and a lot better at long-running work. It carries context across sessions and handles ambiguity much better.
