I vibe coded a habit tracking app to record AI practice sessions. Like DuoLingo for using ChatGPT to practice. I'm pairing this with my trusty grammar text book 🇮🇹
It's quite a naive UI (improvements coming) but I got in the iconic github green squares.

The reviewers are not wrong, this was a fantastic read! I don’t think I’ve read a book that handles such a heavy era in such a fast paced and enjoyable style. Five stars from me! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Skunk Anansie absolutely killed it last night at the Roundhouse.
Highlights included crowd surfing on a giant pig, and calling all the women to the front for a mosh pit.
Epic stuff 🔥🕺

This is a very informative read, but I have to praise these map drawings. Such a fun and unexpected addition.
I wish more technical books included such a slice of playfulness. Great work all round @martin.kleppmann.com 👏

Working on the practioner/ provider page using AI design tool visily
A quick design that took <10 mins. It's basic so far and the event cards are not perfect, but re-usable.
Let's get this coded up! 🤓 #buildinpublic #design

2. Things I struggled with:
📏 Aligning and spacing more limited than figma
🪄 AI did not work as well as expected, although I might need to practice prompts more.
It was also interesting to see how Visily designed from scratch. The image below was created in under a min 👇
