Coding grind to build something for passion
Three years ago, I built an app using Purity dashboard to bootstrap my Laravel/React project. So happen, this is build on top of React 17 and Chakra UI v1. The app is called Owl Alert which was for me to build my own technical alert indicators to get […]
Over the past year, AI‑assisted development has grown beyond autocomplete suggestions and chat‑based help. We’re now entering what I see as the agentic phase of software engineering — where coding assistants behave more like collaborators.
