What a WILD day at #Goatmire! I finally unveiled the surprise that @lawik.bsky.social and I have been cooking up for the last few months - every attendee received a Nerves-powered e-ink name badge!

Introducing Tidewave: tidewave.ai

While working on our web apps, we run code, query the database, read logs, search docs… but our AI tools are limited to reading code.

Tidewave closes this gap by introducing Runtime Intelligence, for Phoenix and Rails. More coming soon, check out the website!
