After some experimentation, I have to say that officially, Cursor has become my new favorite tool.

Seriously though, it's pretty impressive. It's not quite Figma (I even struggled to change max-width from pixels to percentages at first 😅), but it's super useful for things like tweaking grids and handling visual layouts directly in your code.

This is why I was so happy when @Damian at Bejamas made his first code contribution. It shows we're all in this together.

Because in the end, we are all builders.

I tried this on a side project. I needed to know how we would handle our data. Instead of waiting days for a developer, I got a good first draft in minutes. Of course, an expert still needs to check it, but it helped us move forward immediately.

I mean they should be able to "ask" a project questions, like "how hard would this be to build?" This way, they understand the effort involved right from the start. It cuts down on the endless back-and-forth meetings that slow everything down.

So we decided to build what we needed: BejamasUI v1 — a free, open-source design system built specifically for Astro marketing sites. It looks great and works even better.

We're releasing it in the coming days. Stay tuned.

And there's another gap: no proper Astro templates.

Astro has become our go-to framework for websites (we've been using it since the very early versions at dodonut.com). It's fast, flexible, and perfect for content-heavy sites.

⭐ It helped us curate a stronger, more relevant agenda.

And by the way — even with fewer stages, we had just as many speakers as last year, if not more.

Thank you for the trust. Sometimes, doing less is how you deliver more.

By focusing, we attracted a more cohesive audience. All three stages were interesting for everyone focused on creating digital products.

The results:
👥 We avoided a fragmented audience.
📈 Engagement and voting in the app were significantly higher.

This was an extremely good decision. In the past, we experimented with dev topics, no-code, and marketing. But when you have only two dev talks and sixty design talks, the developers who show up feel disappointed. The experience is diluted.

This year was tough. We struggled with sponsors, and more stages mean higher costs. But the real catalyst came from 20 in-depth interviews with 2024 attendees. The conclusion was clear: we needed very specific stages.

So we focused on three core pillars:

🎨 Design

It handles CLI commands, DB migrations, and complex logic exceptionally well.

My current stack is a combination of Cursor + Codex.

What are your experiences? What's in your stack?

🧠 Codex (via ChatGPT) Oh my god. Szymon Paluch recommended this, and he was right. Codex produces the highest quality output, period. The downside? It’s slow. A single request can take 20 minutes. But it’s incredible for creating solid architecture, structure, and local code.

With the new Sonnet 4.5 and plan mode, it gets better every week.
October 22, 2025 at 7:15 AM
🚀 Cursor This is my #1 tool for anything CLI, backend, or logic-related. It makes silly mistakes sometimes, but I love working in it. It's a proper code environment, so you need to know the basics. The price-for-value is the best on the market, and the limits are high.

🔥 Firebase Studio Sounds cool in theory (native Google solution), but I wasted two hours just trying to fix errors. The final app was very basic. I won't be going back to it for now.

🌐 v0 by Vercel Limited experience here, but it didn't blow my mind. It was useful for one of our customers to create a quick website mockup, which served as a great starting point.

🔩 bolt.new My first vibe coding tool. It got the job done, but the experience was disappointing. It felt like I was just fixing one error after another, constantly hitting "enter" to solve the next problem.
