CooWriter AI

What do you think about this level of productivity? youtu.be/A8ga5mhyRSQ

@Govindtwtt Right, but not software engineers are only lucky, there are few more peoples like writers, graphics designers, analyst, etc. It's matter of adoption.

Software engineers are the happiest people on Earth right now They pay 10k/month for Claude Code to do the work Get paid 3lac/month for the results 97% profit margins for sipping coffee and talking to Al What a time to be alive

@retlehs Looks so clean way to set config

roots/wp-config v2 is coming soon, a new fluent API for WordPress configuration github.com/roots/wp-config

@vibeonX69 Monitoring AI doing right thing

If AI can -write code -fix bugs -review PRs -deploy apps -secure systems what exactly are developers getting paid for?

@vibeonX69 May be HTML?

Is there a programming language that literally has zero haters?

@cipriangb Awesome!

I built myself a #WordPress Object Cache helper based on SQLite3.

Why struggle when CooWriter AI is here! Create a comprehensive article in minutes from just a simple idea with proper formatting, images, tables and more.

@hiarun02 Distribution

One skill every founder must have?

@BlakeWhittle7 AI is helping, but it can't do all things on its own. Human intervention is must for better result. And we built CooWriter AI around that idea to boost writers productivity, not replace them.

I keep seeing posts on X every time I open it about how WordPress and plugin companies are doomed because of AI. AI is not going to replace most plugins. The crowd pushing this narrative is small but loud, remember that. And I firmly believe many pushing that narrative don’t actually do any significant client work. Meanwhile, I work with probably too many clients and agencies every day, and we’re grinding out WordPress sites left and right. There’s 0 conversation about what I keep hearing on X. I don’t see Steve, a construction company owner, firing up Claude Code and vibe-coding his site with Astro. I don’t see Nancy, the secretary, doing that either. It’s way easier for them, or for the agency they hire, to buy a plugin for $79 per year that does what they need. And if they want a custom feature that doesn’t have a plugin, that’s on the agency to use AI to build it more efficiently. For those doing solid client work with WordPress, don’t worry. For plugin owners, don’t panic. Keep innovating. Don’t coast. Use AI to push WordPress forward. #WordPress #AI #WordPressPlugins

@JamesWelbes Indeed, there is, but there are many good plugins as well.

@CooWriterAI I don't think people realize how much slop exists in that WordPress plug-in repo

90% of the replies I get to my comments about AI possibly replacing WordPress some day seem to suggest a misconception about the kind of AI vibe coding I'm concerned about. I'm not talking about the people opening VSCode and using Claude to code stuff. If I had to do that, I would likely use WordPress too just because that method requires some knowledge from the user and I'm familiar with WordPress. I'm more concerned with SaaS products like @Lovable @v0 @Replit @Bolt__AI . These apps allow you to supply a prompt and it builds an entire website based on your prompt, and of course you can iterate. They integrate very easily with things like supabase. They can easily integrate with anything that has an API, like mailchimp, constant contact etc. And maintaining a website built with one of those platforms is stupid simple. Need to change your brand colors? Just tell it to, and it will. Need to modify your navigation menu? Just tell it what needs to be done. Need to add another blog post? Type it up in the chat box and say "add this new blog post". Or it will probably integrate with Google Docs, Notion etc. Hell you don't even have to type, use something like WisprFlow and just dictate your whole damn blog post. Need to add another product? just upload the images, tell it what the price is, what are the shipping dimensions etc. Your entire interface is just a chat box. You just tell it what you need done, and it does it. What need is there for a templating system? What need is there for a plugin ecosystem? What needs is there for a thought out CMS. Who cares if the underlying code is PHP or Node.js? What possible benefit does WordPress offer that won't be easily attainable from AI? I would argue that every benefit WordPress has to offer is already attainable by AI, and what AI needs to do is polish up the experience. Young people are already not using WordPress. It's probably why WordPress usage is plateauing and growth has stalled. It's being kept alive by boomers. 5 years from now, if you need a website, you can spin up WordPress, and use whatever AI tools WordPress has baked into it to cobble together your website, doing half the work yourself and trying to let AI do as much as possible, or you can just pop on lovable, upload your figma design from your designer, go make a pot of coffee and when you come back, have a fully functional website. Then you just feed it your mailchimp API, smtp API, login to your Stripe account etc, all this will be streamlined by then, click publish and you're done. I don't see how WordPress competes with that, aside from eventually just becoming one of those AI SaaS products. I don't want to go through the same hassle of setting up a WordPress site and then using AI to start building stuff within the constraints of the WYSIWYG WordPress experience. I'd much rather go to wordpress dot com, feed it a figma file and a prompt and get a website. I think eventually WordPress will basically just be a brand. Another of many AI apps with a name people recongnize. WordPress architecture is already getting a bit long in the tooth and adding an AI bot inside of it likely isn't going to allow it to compete with other AI bots one-shotting websites. And yes, I'm aware that AI bots can't one shot websites yet. I've always tried to be clear that what I'm worried about is the FUTURE of AI yet despite that folks are always arguing with me based on the capabilities of AI TODAY.

@asaio87 AI-backed engineer

To be a good "vibe coder" you must be a developer. But then can you call yourself a vibe coder, or you are just an expert using AI as a tool ?

@briancoords @wordpressdotcom We built CooWriter AI exactly for this purpose. You can dump whatever you have and it will generate complete post. It will properly follow all kind for formatting and can also use different blocks. Unlike other AI tools, you can refine your post using prompts like ChatGPT.

The MCP on @wordpressdotcom has been a big unlock for me. Dump a bunch of my notes into chat, have it clean up formatting, headers, lists, etc and then push it to a draft post that I can go edit. Very nice.

@pootlepress Looks so smooth!

WordPress header demo. Watch how it detects each section’s colour and adapts automatically.

@NalinisKitchen May be because login with social accounts are easy for user and it don't require any email verification which lead to better user conversion.

No hate, but why doesn’t India’s own AI have its own login system? Why be dependent on Google or Microsoft for login?

@abhijitwt This called task delegating 😂

this is not vibecoding, right?

@Varnika99 I think marketing shouldn't be last one.

@trikcode and moderate usage will give you wings.

Unpopular opinion. Excessive use of AI will make you dumb. Very dumb.

@marcusdburnette Than have your own distribution site.

So I have: - One #WordPress plugin submitted for review and waiting for approval in the dotorg repo. - I also have three or four waiting on my computer after that one. - Plus, I have one that I might just make paid only. Where should I put them all?
