6+ min ago (200+ words) We just finished submitting HexForge: The Spooky Coding Education Game for the Kiroween Hackathon (Category: Costume Contest - Haunting UI). While the game itself is fun'offering 10 JavaScript challenges in a haunted, animated environment'the real story is how we achieved a ~95% reduction in development time by strictly using Kiro's full suite of AI-powered development tools. We didn't just use it for "vibe coding"; we ran a formal Spec-Driven Development (SDD) process from start to finish. Our successful submission showcases how to integrate Kiro's advanced features for a truly structured, high-quality build. HexForge combines JavaScript learning with a sleek, atmospheric dark theme. The most critical step was adopting SDD. We replaced ad-hoc feature requests with a formal specification defined in our .kiro/specs directory. To ensure every generated component was consistent with our design, we created two critical steering files that Kiro consulted…...

9+ min ago (524+ words) Amazon Web Services on Tuesday announced three new AI agents it calls "Frontier agents, including one designed to learn how you like to work and then operate on its own for days. Each of these agents handle different tasks such as writing code, security processes like code reviews, and automating DevOps tasks such as preventing incidents when pushing new code live. Preview versions of the agents are available now. Perhaps the biggest and most interesting claim by AWS is its promise that the Frontier agent called "Kiro autonomous agent" can work on its own for days at a time. "You simply assign a complex task from the backlog and it independently figures out how to get that work done," AWS CEO Matt Garman promised when introducing the new product during his keynote at AWS re:Invent on Tuesday. "It actually…...

12+ min ago (261+ words) Moreover, life gets busy, so these things happen. In 2025 I decided it was time to revisit my projects there, one at a time. The first question I had to ask myself was simple: which projects are worth keeping maintained, and which should be archived? This article shares some general ideas that helped me to decide. Hopefully they will be useful to you too. My goal in 2015, 2020 and 2025 remains simple and straightforward: to share solutions and ideas that solve real challenges in the frontend or full-stack development world. Here are three simple steps that I find useful: Is the project still relevant? If a project scores well on relevance, scope, and usability, it is usually a good candidate to keep, polish, and improve rather than archive. Once you have decided a project is worth keeping, the next question is: how do…...

23+ min ago (222+ words) Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 40 minutes In this project, we will create a simple Notes App using React. The app will allow users to add, edit, and delete notes. We will break down the development into several steps, ensuring that each step meets specific requirements and adds essential functionality. In this project, you will learn how to create a custom React Hook called useWindowSize to get the current window size and use it to conditionally render the navigation bar in a web application. Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 15 minutes In this project, you will learn how to implement navigation features in a React application. You will create a simple application with a navigation bar and pages that can be navigated to using links. Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 5 minutes React is a popular front-end development library that allows us to quickly and easily create UI components…...

27+ min ago (561+ words) While OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google trade blows at the top of the charts, Amazon is asking everyone to look somewhere else. Amazon's AI chief has a message for the model benchmark obsessives: Stop looking at the leaderboards. It's a contrarian stance when every other AI lab is quick to boast about how their new models quickly climb the leaderboards. It's also convenient for Amazon, given that the previous version of Nova, its flagship model, was sitting at spot 79 on LMArena when Prasad and I spoke last week. Still, dismissing benchmarks only works if Amazon can offer a different story about what progress looks like. "They're not showing the real power of these models." Forge offers something else: access to Amazon's Nova model checkpoints at the pre-training, mid-training, and post-training stages. Companies can inject their proprietary data early in the process,…...

31+ min ago (573+ words) Day 1 at AWS re:Invent 2025 kicked off with Matt Garman's first keynote as CEO of AWS " and the message was unmistakable: This is the AI era, and AWS is building the full stack for it. Matt structured the entire keynote around four core areas: And what I loved most: after each major section, AWS brought customers on stage to share real implementations " not just theory. Sony, Adobe, and Writer all walked through how they're building on top of these new capabilities, grounding the announcements in reality. Here's my full breakdown. Matt opened with a thoughtful shoutout to AWS Heroes, Community Builders, and User Group Leaders, calling them the builders shaping the future. As someone involved deeply in community, that meant a lot. Then came the infrastructure announcements " big ones. A new end-to-end framework to scale AI development and deployment. Think…...

38+ min ago (1084+ words) The maintainers of the Zig programming language have moved their main repository from GitHub to Codeberg, rejecting Microsoft's AI strategy and citing a critical CPU bug left unfixed for months. Citing a "rotted" engineering culture, the Zig Software Foundation is moving its main repository to Codeberg, a non-profit hosting alternative. The migration explicitly rejects Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence (AI) strategy, which leadership claims has degraded basic service utility. Fueling the exit is a specific "safe sleep" bug in GitHub Actions " left unfixed for months " that caused servers to hang indefinitely. The foundation is also severing financial ties, labeling its $170,000 annual revenue from GitHub Sponsors a strategic "liability." Far from a sudden impulse, the decision reflects a simmering tension between open source maintainers and the corporate priorities of GitHub's parent company. Zig Software Foundation (ZSF) President Andrew Kelley announced the immediate transfer…...

39+ min ago (119+ words) The Problem: I love Python for data analysis, but I hate writing matplotlib boilerplate just to see a simple trend. I also didn't want the overhead of a full React frontend for a simple dashboard. The Solution: I built Morph-AI-Era, a monolithic app using: Vanilla JS + Plotly (Frontend): Fetches JSON and renders charts instantly. Supabase: For Auth and Credits. FastAPI cleans NaN values and detects date columns. Bonus: I added a "Viral PDF" generator using html2canvas. The Result: A dashboard that feels like a SPA but runs on a simple Python backend. It handles 100k+ rows in the browser without lag. Let me know if you want to see the source code for the "Forecast" endpoint!...
