Morning thoughts ☕️

As many of you I’ve been exploring AI tools like Replit, Cursor AI + other tools to craft apps faster

My take so far is that it improves quality and dev speed on the areas you are already strong as a developer, and gives you a starting point on those areas you are weak

E.g.

I’m stronger in backend dev, data structures, algos and architecture. So my apps are pretty strong in these areas (in a short period of time)

I’m weak when it comes to front end, UI/UX. haven’t find a way to move fast in these areas.

Maybe I haven’t found the right AI tools for front end / design?

Thoughts?

Yeah I can see how understanding core from scratch can be hard 

Btw I wanted to show you what I’ve been working on. Will dm you soon :)

I'm new to both and am using the same tools to try and learn. I'm taking a Takeoff course to help, but it's a little hard/slow when it's all new.

I think you have to have a didactic mindset when working with LLMs in areas you’re not expert. I’ve used them to accelerate skilling up in a lot of areas just by helping me uncover unknown unknowns. Often times in new fields I just don’t know where to start.

The way to move fast in those areas is to become strong in them, then augment that skill set with ai tools

Exactly like you’ve done in backend dev, algos and architecture 😉
