AI in development — a year on
For almost a year I've been writing code with AI. The main thing I've learned: it multiplies whoever understands what they're doing — and just as fast multiplies whoever doesn't.
Notes on frontend development and where it's heading: how I work with AI, what I've learned about design systems, and how I see the future of the profession.
For almost a year I've been writing code with AI. The main thing I've learned: it multiplies whoever understands what they're doing — and just as fast multiplies whoever doesn't.
A design system is easy to start and hard to keep. I've stood several up — and learned almost everything valuable from what didn't work.
I think the profession is in for a transformation: the frontend developer becomes a UX/UI engineer who holds the interface and the product in one head. And that future is rather to my liking.
