As a seasoned web developer with two decades of experience, my journey has been witness to a myriad of coding tools, each leaving its mark on the ever-evolving landscape. Amidst these, AI emerges as a paradigm-shifting force, beckoning us into an era where code generation takes center stage. In this engaging talk, I’ll unravel my exploration—from Figma design to a fully functional app—showcasing the transformative potential of Builder.IO Visual Copilot to output a SolidJS and Tailwind app from scratch. Then I’ll apply the final touches with VSCode and Github Copilot.
Together, we’ll explore the effectiveness of these tools, ponder the implications on our roles as developers, and evaluate the tangible benefits they bring to the table. Will AI render us obsolete, or will it become an indispensable ally in our coding endeavors? Find out if this is the future of UI development.
