A place for developers to talk about building on Farcaster.

/dev

Engineers: what's your current workflow for building with AI tools? Which tools and models are you using?

Specifically looking to hear from folks who actually know how to code, not vibe coders (no hate, just different dynamics)

mostly using Cursor with claude-4-sonnet in Max mode, sometimes I’ll run Claude Code inside the Cursor terminal if Cursor isn’t doing as well on a bigger tasks. also making sure I spend more time writing out my task descriptions so there’s more context for the LLM

have also been using DeepWiki to ask questions on public repos(like the FC miniapps ones) and it’s been suuuper helpful, even generates docs & diagrams

sometimes the docs indexing in cursor is good but not usually so i use deepwiki.com by devin/cognition instead. eg last week I wanted to know more about the inner-workings of getEthereumProvider so I went through the docs on deepwiki & was able to ask questions that showed me the specific lines of code with the answer

i'm sure i'd get solid results cloning the repo locally too but deepwiki has been really good so far
