There's a take going around that not knowing how to code is an advantage when using AI.
It’s wrong.
The more you understand coding and software engineering, the better your prompts, the better you manage the context, the better your feedback, and the better the product you ship.
Slint 1.16 is almost here and we'd love your help testing it.
✨ Keyboard shortcuts, FlexboxLayout, rich text, multi-touch gestures, and more.
Try the pre-release and let us know if you spot any regressions:

My Mac had >100 old Wifi connections and the Mac REQUIRES you delete them 1 at a time. I created a shell script to automate the process. I thought others might be interested.

Knip rocks! Thank you for all you do 🙌
i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)
you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

A free, cross-platform app for drawing schematics and designing PCBs. In 2.0, the UI migrated from #Qt to #Slint, bringing a refreshed productivity-focused interface.
Proud to see Slint used in a large-scale desktop app 💙

Oh I’m wrong arn’t I! It’s not a circle radius but a squircle!
It’s just school level trigonometry 😁 Doubt few would think to add the detail though. So good!
Slint
However it’s so hard to be disciplined. It often creates quite a lot of code. And I’m someone that has to write stuff myself to understand it. I’m not great at reading code. I have to really push myself to manually refactor and tidy things. 🤷🏻♂️
To answer your original question I’m using cursor plan mode a lot. Where you create a mini spec and it executes. I use it because it helps me think through a problem. Then the tables and checklists seem to give the AI guardrails that reduce (but not eliminate) mistakes.
But a user story is far too high level. I can’t believe we are anywhere near the point that is practical. The other issue is a story can be quite a large PR. That’s a lot of weird AI code to review.
I’m asking it very small and specific things. “Create the state using library X and then create a form using the components in the existing library to do Y”. Cursor makes a plan. I review that. It executes and there is always things to be fixed or simplified.
Oh I had misread your message. I wouldn’t think to try it because I’m just using AI to speed up learning some new libraries or save time writing boiler plate heavy UI code. It’s a help when Google fails or documentation is poor or not a good fit for how I learn.
Not heard the term and found github.blog/ai-and-ml/ge... if that is what you mean? I use the plan mode in Cursor, but that is a spec for small specific chunks. AI struggles with that, so the blocker being todays AI cannot cope with high level tasks and no serious developer would claim it can?
AI assisted. But more to try things out and learn. Although AI seems to be an easy trap to fall into where you make yourself ignorant. Then use it lots when refactoring repetitive UI changes.
I'm so happy with the new Speedometer demo that is part of @slint.dev 1.14. It took around a day to complete and this video shows the jump from the first hour or so, to when I finished polishing things. You can play with the demo or see the code here docs.slint.dev/latest/demos...
