We're all learning how to ship more side projects. If you're "in the bubble" it can feel like everyone is repo-maxxing. Shipping weekly. Spinning up agents to scaffold full apps overnight. New OSS dropped every Friday. The reality I see with most developers is much more normal: They have six or seven repos sitting in various states of half-attention. A side project from last year that still gets a
Hey dev.to community! I just launched CodeLens AI — an AI-powered code review tool that automatically reviews every pull request. Connect your GitHub repo Open a PR AI automatically reviews the code Detailed review comment posted on PR Bugs and logic errors SQL injection and security vulnerabilities Performance issues Code quality improvements Next.js + TypeScript NextAuth + GitHub OAuth Supabase
Why We Open-Sourced Our AI Safety Layer When we built the AI safety layer for As You Wish (AYW), we faced a choice: keep it proprietary or open-source it to help the community. Here's why we chose the latter (and why it made our platform stronger). If you're building AI-assisted development tools, you need: Input validation (sanitizing prompts, preventing injection) Output filtering (catching u
If you want to Automate GitHub PRs, the real goal is not just adding another bot comment to a pull request. The goal is to give reviewers the context they usually have to gather manually: who owns the service, whether it is deployed, whether basic repository standards are in place, and whether the change looks safe to merge. A useful AI pull request workflow can do exactly that. When a PR opens, i
L'IA vocale en gestion de chantier : retour d'expérience après 50 projets BTP Le problème : les mains pleines, le temps compté Sur un chantier, le chef de projet ou l'artisan a les mains occupées. Qu'il soit en train de mesurer une façade, de vérifier l'aplomb d'une cloison ou de valider du béton fraîchement coulé, la dernière chose dont il a besoin est de sortir son téléphone pour re
How I Used GitHub Actions to Auto-Publish to AMO on Every Release Manually uploading extension files to AMO (Mozilla's Add-On Observatory) is tedious. After the fifth time forgetting to increment the version number, I automated it with GitHub Actions. Here's exactly how I set up the pipeline for the Weather & Clock Dashboard extension. Trigger on new GitHub release Validate the manifest version
Voice AI for Jobsite Estimating: A Developer Perspective Building estimators spend hours hunched over spreadsheets, struggling with poor handwriting on site photos, and entering the same data twice (once on paper, once in the office). This workflow is broken. Voice AI changes everything—and it's simpler to implement than most developers think. In this article, I'll walk you through the real-worl
Voice AI for Jobsite Estimating: A Developer Perspective The construction industry has historically lagged behind in digital adoption. Yet today, one of the most transformative shifts happening on job sites isn't coming from enterprise software vendors—it's coming from applied AI at the edge. Voice-based estimating is reshaping how builders create quotes, manage materials, and streamline workflo
