Can I ask, how much experience are you coming to the table with? I would love to make educational content around this and some of my approaches but struggle a bit on where the best step 1 is given the broad range of everyone’s starting points The number one thing I would say is to write out a full spec before you get started. Plan the work, then work the plan The other thing I have found is that fully agentic app dev is not for me I’m not good enough yet. Instead I work directly with an LLM and copy paste into my IDE. This way have a firm handle on what’s going on. No code gets in that I don’t look at first. It makes the app maintainable for me

I guess it may sound dumb to people who are familiar with coding but the problem I have seen and identify with myself is going from “ok I can get the thing to write code and I get what the code is doing” to “how do I deploy this correctly” and that last part might apply with and without AI I’m super comfortable taking code and putting it on my already established and hosted site and I can just plug it in and it works but the full 0 to 1 is a black box

What is an example of something like this, where you took it all the way to the end and didn’t deploy? What did the code do?

Separate things. I’ll use LLM to make code to supplement now. If I had it mapped out in my head of what I needed to do to deploy something then I’d be more likely to invest time into writing the code. Also partly unknown unknown, I don’t know what I *should* do there that I’m not even thinking of

Depends on what you are building tbh I like Replit for this reason because it’s 1 click deploy — I don’t even think about it anymore But also for react based apps — Vercel also is very easy. I was intimidated by it but was shocked by how simple it is I’ve always backed out of my ideas and desire to have something live in the world and then not taken no for an answer 😂 ie — I don’t even think about getting to the end to make it worth starting
