Mobile Engineer 🚀 | Android • Kotlin • Compose Multiplatform | Native Mobile Development • Building high performance mobile apps 📱

[Yazan Tarifi @YazanT98]

Hello everyone, I’m Yazan Tarifi 👋

I’m a Software Engineer focused on building real products, with a strong background in native mobile development.

Here, I’ll share what I’m building, what I’m learning, and my thoughts about software engineering and technology.

I’m especially interested in:
• Native Mobile Development 📱
• Android, Kotlin & Compose Multiplatform
• Backend Engineering, especially NestJS
• Software Architecture & System Design
• AI, LLMs & Coding Agents
• Performance, scalability & developer tools

Always learning. Always building. 🚀

[Android Developers @AndroidDev]

The stable release of AndroidX Security State v1.1.0 and Security State Provider v1.0.0 are here. 🔐

These libraries bring transparency to device security by letting developers and MDM solutions programmatically verify component-level protection, check pending updates, and move beyond monolithic patch levels → https://t.co/lcfdKgpcSu

Because the users that vibe coding their projects does not even understand anything in IT or software development, they always say to ai pick the best one, yes, yes
Thats why they let the ai take all decisions , everything

But in real software development world we plan, study the technologies, decide the roadmap then we implement in instructions, a full roadmap and the specific development rules

But vibe coding code is a nightmare and he even does not know how the implemented code even working , i saw users telling AI to run the project, they even dont know what is the commands and what is the args 😅

A perfect way of integrating monitoring and error analysis into your backend project without external linking

[NestJS @nestframework]

Shipped a live demo of NestJS Observe - see the full dashboard without installing anything or linking your app.

@GithubProjects But you should, only legends can push to production on friday 😎

Yes always dont let agents and models decide on its own and searching in all files
1- Build a perfect Agents.md file
2- Build a perfect Architecture.md file
3- Setup Nested Agents.md file in each level
4- Build Skills and agents and mention them in Agents file

Agents file should not be large, but clear to understand what is the project, which framework, what configurations, then mention inside it files to read when it needs something

Architecture file is the development rules, restrictions, do and dont list, folders and classes structure

Nested agents file is per feature, dont let the agent to read a lot of files to understand what is this feature, let it read one file per feature and its ready to start edit

Agents that can spawn automatically by your prompts

In this way models should not read the whole code just to understand where it should edit, insted it read one md file and know what is this feature and where to go exactly

[Yazan Tarifi @YazanT98]

One of the most underused features in AI is Agents.

Invest once in building specialized agents with clear rules:
1. When they should trigger
2. How they should code
3. Which architecture to follow
4. What they should never touch

Then something changes:
AI stops randomly generating code.
It starts working like an engineer inside your system. 🤖

Build the agent once.
Reuse the intelligence everywhere.

@drk261 @codewith55 Thinkpads also good but as a developer experience and the touch pad experience macbook is the king here

[Yazan Tarifi @YazanT98]

To do both i recommend Gaming PC with normal keyboard not mechanical

So its easier to code on but also you can have both keyboards and switch between them

But gaming pc is the option because you can build and upgrade the components as you like to push it to the maximum performance

[Yazan Tarifi @YazanT98]

@Alex1here Yes, then codex will uninstall claude 😉

[Yazan Tarifi @YazanT98]

ChatGPT web search is seriously underrated.

It doesn’t feel like normal Google search where you open 10 results and dig through each one.

It searches deeper into pages, links, docs, and sources, then gives you the exact information with the exact link you actually need.

One search. Direct answer. 🔎⚡

@hiarun02 Try Astra on light 🤣then it will be the most expensive model you will use

@niqudrift You should save tokens as much as possible

@misschopra Everyday, so in the next day i start fresh without cache
