Updated the cookie banner to explicit opt-in defaults for non-essential cookies. Analytics and advertising are now off by default, with Accept all / Reject all / Customize choices and granular saved preferences.

Ran a full pass across the entire site: content quality fixes, consistency updates, link/SEO cleanup, mobile polish on high-risk pages, and process improvements including a pre-deploy check script and recurring review cycle.

A practical decision framework for when AI belongs in a product feature, when ordinary code is better, and how to keep probabilistic systems away from decisions that need deterministic control.

A practical comparison of Claude, Bolt, Lovable, Replit, and v0 — what each tool is optimized for, where each falls short, a decision framework for choosing, and guidance on when you've outgrown a tool.

A practical guide for production AI quality: golden datasets, prompt regression in CI, quality gates before release, observability metrics, and incident playbooks for fast rollback and recovery.

For developers building products on top of Claude. Covers system prompt design, context management, prompt caching, cost optimization by task type, streaming with Server-Sent Events, tool use / function calling, and production patterns including structured logging and truncation handling.

The investigation workflow for debugging — reading error messages and stack traces before prompting, establishing last working state with git diff, isolating failures, forming hypotheses. Covers async/race conditions, type errors, performance bugs, and environment bugs. Includes a 7-prompt copy-paste library.

The guide between "it's live" and "this approach has limits" — adding features safely to a live app, adding a database, handling user feedback, recovering when something breaks on live, and keeping things healthy over time.

Concrete AI prompts for Python development. Pydantic-first prompting, FastAPI endpoints, SQLAlchemy 2.x async patterns, pytest with AsyncMock, and Django ORM. Includes a copy-paste prompt library with 8 templates.

"The Starting Point" renamed to "The Complete Guide to AI-Assisted Development" for clarity and searchability. New guides added to the homepage grid.

How to use AI to write GitHub Actions workflows, generate production Dockerfiles, automate code review in CI, and build deployment pipelines. Includes working examples for CI, staging deploy, production deploy with approval gates, and automated PR review.

The "For Developers" tab now has a filter bar: All / Foundations / Workflow / Tutorials / By Domain / Team. Filters guide cards client-side with no page load.

Updated model IDs to current versions, noted Windsurf's acquisition by OpenAI, replaced deprecated ChatGPT plugin references with GPTs, updated Cursor rules file guidance to the new .cursor/rules/ directory approach, and added Copilot agent mode.

Every guide now has a "Related Guides" section pointing to natural companion content. Sharpened the card descriptions for aiteamlead and aiteamwork to make their distinct audiences clear.

How to share prompt strategies, maintain shared context files, integrate AI into PR reviews, and onboard teammates in a codebase where AI is already part of how things get built.

Honest guide to recognizing when a project has outgrown AI-only building — and how to hire and communicate with a developer when you don't know code.

Code review in AI-first teams, standardizing team workflows, building an organizational prompt library, and using AI as a design partner for architecture decisions.

Step-by-step deployment guide for vibe coders: HTML files via Netlify Drop, plus Bolt, Replit, Lovable, and v0. Covers custom domains, browser storage vs. databases, and what surprises people after going live.

Practical workflow for schema design, migrations, query optimization, and safely evolving production databases with AI support.

Practical guide to writing better tests faster with AI assistance: unit tests, integration tests, TDD workflows, edge case generation, and mocking patterns.

54 copy-paste prompts across 10 categories: debug, review, test, refactor, generate, explain, document, design, security, git. Searchable and filterable.

Case study article about building the entire site with Claude over 6 weeks. What worked, what went wrong, what to do differently.
