This post walks through a hands-on experiment in agentic development using an AI-powered digital twin embedded in the IDE. See how a single, well-structured prompt enabled the agent to implement a real user story, generate behavioral tests, and prepare Git commit documentation—with minimal developer input. Includes real-world code samples, implementation insights, and a candid look at what worked, what didn’t, and where human oversight is still essential.
TL;DR: Struggling to keep form validation and UI in sync in your React app?

The Problem: When Validation Drifts from UI I’ve been writing forms for as long as I’ve been writing code—and …
Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offers developers and organizations the ability to create and deploy serverless Cloud Run functions. This code – whether it’s written in Node.js, Python, C#, or another language – can interact with other parts of GCP’s infrastructure. By default, the function is triggered by a basic HTTPS request. However, that is not our only option.
In this blog, we’ll introduce the concept of event-driven functions—a powerful way to automatically respond to changes across GCP services with minimal code. You’ll see how these functions can connect services like Cloud Storage, Firestore, and Pub/Sub, creating efficient workflows with less manual intervention…

In my last post, “Introduction to Web Apps with Next.js”, we went through the steps of setting up a new Next.js project, customizing a landing page, and implementing a very simple web application. In this post, we’ll implement an Open Authentication (OAuth) based Single Sign-On (SSO) API within Next.js using NextAuth.js. We’ll be using GitHub as our provider, but the steps here are very similar for other platforms, such as Google or Discord. This will allow us to place portions of our website behind a login screen, restricting access to certain content or APIs for anonymous visitors.
