Going hard into software development with AI

[bryon @bryon]

As a complete noob to #linux, #claudecode is a life saver.
I'd never have the time or patience to figure out everything out on my own and I'd be back to windows with out it.

[bryon @bryon]

@natolambert I just want to see evidence of this, cause I've not experienced it. At this point opus seems to be a waste of usage for me.

[bryon @bryon]

Watched #TronAres today in 3D and I really don't understand why it got so much bad press. I really enjoyed it, especially with a kick ass @nineinchnails sound track. Good stuff!

[bryon @bryon]

Had a mixup with my environment and my #claudecode sessions got screwed up and I couldn't resume. I was in a pretty heavy session and didn't want to loose it completely so did some digging (with another instance of claude code) and the solution is to find your sessions, ~/.claude/projects/ and find your sessionid then do

claude --resume <uuid> --fork-session

and it will pick up the corrupted session for @clau

Spent the weekend setting up @OsEndeavour on a new SSD this weekend to migrate off of windows. I'm sold, I love it already and was shocked when I even was able to play @Borderlands 4 on it with Proton experimental and it was smoother than on windows. Why do I need windows at all?

[bryon @bryon]

Yes using claude on the command line. Especially for this exercise its very handy because it can understand my entire code base of my old project and also check the code of my new rails project to make sure I'm doing things right. I start claude in a directory so it can see both.
Yes it uses rails guide as its source but does it with a url and reads it from there. You can checkout my repo on that.

Just watched @dhh on @lexfridman and got so inspired that I'm trying to rebuild my app in Rails 8. To do this I built a custom learning system with @ClaudeAI that:
- Teaches me Rails "The Rails Way"
- Uses DHH's voice &amp; philosophy
- Tracks progress across sessions

[bryon @bryon]

so I have a base directory lets say 'dev' that contains both my old project and the rails project I'm creating. I use claude in this folder and let it know what each directory is (old vs new rails) This is where I put my /rails-continue command. It reference these directories along with the other supporting documents like learning-plan, progress, and some docs about what the project actually is.

[bryon @bryon]

@briankb @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai Right on, thanks for the heads up on Kamal. It's part of the learning plan but obviously one of the final lessons of it so will be interesting to see how it handles it when I get there.

[bryon @bryon]

@briankb @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai For example, I just had it move to next step and it did this, so as you can see it's aligning with the documentation with every step of the learning program.

[bryon @bryon]

Yeah that's always a struggle but the way I set this up it is specifically made to be used over multiple sessions and context. There is too much to learn and transfer to be handled in a single context. This is why I have a master plan and a progress tracker.
Trying single shot something like this is folly.

[bryon @bryon]

@robsoftprojects @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai I loved those stories too, I wasn't around such a scene but remember buddies of mine getting together and creating Lans at our houses to do similar things.

[bryon @bryon]

@yash52388 @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai I created more replies on how I did it

[bryon @bryon]

Shared in my replies how I'm doing it. If you look at my slash command https://t.co/wB5RVyaJYL you'll see that I put special emphasis around this so that it shouldn't assume to know how rails works and should always consult the documentation.
The 3 files (Migration learning plan, progress plan and the agent itself) help keep it on track. since it's main goal is teaching not doing the migration itself it seems to stay on track pretty well. I've not seen it really fall off track yet.

[bryon @bryon]

@siaw23 @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai Thanks!

[bryon @bryon]

@MichaelGame_Dev Posted the details, it's really working well for me. It's like sitting down one on one with an instructor that's excited to be helping you.

[bryon @bryon]

@hongyangchun @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai Posted the details. Hope it's useful

[bryon @bryon]

@ReinierButot @dhh @lexfridman @claudeai Yes more involved but posted the details. Hope it's useful

[bryon @bryon]

@dhh @lexfridman @claudeai So finally the "magic" is in the /rails-continue slash command for claude.
I've quickly made it available here for reference. https://t.co/Q9EOeGsH1U
Hope this was helpful :)

[bryon @bryon]

Since this produced a very large plan I came up with a plan for claude to execute on it. There was some back and forth on how to go about this but what I did at this point is put that plan in an md file, and had claude create a /rails-continue command to execute the plan and to keep a tracking document of where I am as we progress through it. Oh also had it do a web research on DHH to get his tone and style.

[bryon @bryon]

This produced a plan which I then wanted it adjust with the following prompt:
This is a good start but needs adjustment. First do not compare what we are
building in rails to what we are currently using in the app and do not use the current
app as a guide to the exact same things in our rails app. We want to do things "The
Rails Way" so that should guide your plan instead of a 1 to 1 recreation of the its a
match app. Also We will use the latest version of Rails, rails 8, Do not assume you
understand how rails works always consult the documentation and examples from the
website https://t.co/PxBAeqKLh4
