@wishee0 @plfracassi_ @Cloudflare @turborepo Legend! Let us know when it’s up 🔥

@Dimillian @awwstn Simpler way to spawn a worktree for me. I’m on holidays and tempting back into my laptop (which is crazy cool) but I noticed new threads don’t seem to have a way to easily switch between local/worktrees

@RhysSullivan @thsottiaux Is that pulling from tiktok? I need this

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@ScriptedAlchemy For real. Just go all in on remote sessions/VMs and let me manage it all from my phone

@thisismahmoud @RileyRalmuto @Railway Have to say the railway skill + cli combo is absolutely unreal for devex. I’ve got a prototype app with 3 services/db/redis/env vars stood up on railway and I think I’ve looked at the dashboard once. Codex was able to debug and fix a cors error and everything. So so good 👏

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@Gregpazo @ScriptedAlchemy @AdamRackis yeah very interested here 👀

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@emilkowalski Missed a trick her by not registering emilkowal.skill & linking it to that

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@rohanvarma Have a look at https://t.co/ASn4hcc4sI and take inspiration from their UX (Claude only for now). How they handle informing the user about skill use, subagents etc is unparalleled

@leerob @joshmatz @cursor_ai Is there anything in the works (even long term) to work across repos in the cloud? We have separate FE/API/CDK repos and it would be great to point and agent at all of them remotely to deliver a feature end to end.

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@flybayer @MarkLyck wait what. I didn't even know this was an option

Bro: How r u so focused even under pressure?

Meanwhile me in 2004:

@FaYiMoRa @schanuelmiller @thepanta82 Yeah same here for sure!

@Champdebloom @colinhacks @conductor_build Was gonna say that he was describing @conductor_build down to the buttons

@imax153 @EffectTS_ I just implemented observability in a small app for work and getting effect logs into Datadog was a bit of a chore with de-trace. Had to convert them to Winston and use the Winston transport. Something native here would be awesome! Now that it is done it works like a dream!

@kitlangton @aurelienqsw 100% I'm trying to effect pill people at work. I'd rather just make them watch this. It is much better than anything I would come up with

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@stephendahcrown @Prathamesh_7717 @tan_stack @honojs @golang @nextjs @tannerlinsley Yeah definitely. There’s a reason the world runs on Java backends

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@stephendahcrown @Prathamesh_7717 @tan_stack @honojs @golang @nextjs @tannerlinsley 100% that’s why it annoys me when people push it as a replacement to new devs

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@stephendahcrown @Prathamesh_7717 @tan_stack @honojs @golang @nextjs @tannerlinsley Well next would say that wouldn’t they. The reality is any serious application would benefit from a dedicated API built with a framework that is specifically built for backend development. Use Next or React Router or Start as BFFs

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@RoccoVaccone @braelyn_ai Long running processes/async background tasks/independent scaling. Theres a tonne or reasons to use a purpose built backend framework

[Cillian Barron @cillo_b]

@mixeddev @MichaelArnaldi @ericclemmons @tan_stack Yeah this would be a great thing to document
