A small birding app with 300 manually entered species faced an ambitious challenge: scale to include every bird in the world, complete with photos, sounds, and icons. This article explores how the team used GenAI to bootstrap a comprehensive birding database from scratch.
A guide to vibe coding vs AI-assisted development
Vibe coding or AI-assisted development? The choice isn't binary, but getting it wrong at the wrong stage will cost you. This piece breaks down when to embrace speed over architecture, when to take back control, and why the best teams don't pick sides.
How to introduce AI coding agents into your engineering team
AI coding agents draft code, write tests, and open pull requests autonomously. This guide covers the tool landscape, readiness signals, a phased rollout plan, and the team dynamics that make or break adoption.
AI code review tools: what works, what doesn't, and how to set it up
AI code review catches what humans miss and misses what humans catch. This guide compares the tools, shows what each catches, and walks through setup without replacing human judgment.
Getting started with performance testing
Performance bugs erode trust quietly until users explode. Three pragmatic steps help you catch slowdowns early: explore real bottlenecks with Sentry, test with production-sized data, and add lightweight API load tests.
How to pragmatically leverage AI as a startup
If you believe what you see on LinkedIn, startups don't need employees anymore, real founders just have agents building their companies. You write a prompt, fire off the agent, and wait for customers. In reality, you get a vague workflow that produces a mediocre demo at best.
