Working in large teams, I found that devs spent too much time tweaking off-the-shelf templates to create their starter apps. Rather than spending weeks before being productive, I'm happy to announce a new way to get started. Meet Code Shaper – code-shaper.dev

@KunalsGrid 1. Blue 2. The chasing light show is essentially a microchip performing high-speed electrical gaslighting to trick your gullible brain into thinking the photons are running a relay race 🤣

This summer, we'll be hosting a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony + Energy Fair this summer. To be featured in our light show, reply with: 1. Your favorite color 2. How do the lights turn on? No wrong answers!

Welcome to Kunal’s Neighborhood Power! We’ll help kids (ages 0 – 99+) understand how we power our neighborhood. What powers the lights, keeps us warm in the winter, and keeps us cool in the summer? These and many more questions will be answered.

Today, we're releasing shadcn/cli v4. It packs a ton of features: shadcn/skills, presets, dry-run, monorepo and more. If you're using shadcn/ui with coding agents or need better control over the defaults, this is for you. Here's everything new:

If you know anyone in the Built Environment + Energy spaces in Dubai, @steven_q_zhang, Wendy Shi, and I are hosting a Ghabga at the Ritz DIFC on Mar 4 at 9pm. Please feel free to share this with developers, engineers, architects, and people building energy products. And register to attend here: luma.com/z2t40q5m

@KunalsLab @HarvardHBS @Harvard @substack Hope you’re paying for tuition this time. –Dad

Mom, we got into @HarvardHBS¹. Many post-it note business cards down, connections forged, questions answered, and feedback savored. More from Kunal's Neighborhood Power at: NeighborhoodPower . substack . com – ¹ for the HBS Climate Symposium

Please apply if you have strong design systems experience and are passionate about building a foundation that empowers both warfighters and developers.

This isn't just about building beautiful components – your work will directly impact servicemen and women on the battlefield, contributing to a stronger, more secure nation.

Excited to be expanding our frontend team at @anduriltech. I'm seeking an exceptional Design System Engineer in Boston to revolutionize how we build user interfaces across our products. job-boards.greenhouse.io/andurilindustr…

I'm excited to work alongside top engineers and military veterans, building critical features for Lattice OS – Anduril's autonomous command & control platform. 🚀 If you're interested in joining us, check out anduril.com/careers

Thrilled to share – I've joined @anduriltech as a Senior Principal Software Engineer. Anduril is transforming defense technology through its software-first approach. We're delivering innovative AI, robotics, and autonomous systems to the U.S. and our allied forces.

Ricky's 8-year-old inspired me to make a last-minute addition to my AI experiment. Turns out, Cursor was exactly what I'd been looking for. I was able to iterate on my code a lot faster than base models alone. @NareshBhatia/hand-crafted-vs-ai-assisted-frontends-a40fbfc55883" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@NareshBhatia/…

@pavanpodila @OpenAI @AnthropicAI @cursor_ai @v0 @cognition_labs No big reveals here! The TL;DR says it all :) @NareshBhatia/hand-crafted-vs-ai-assisted-frontends-a40fbfc55883" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">medium.com/@NareshBhatia/…

@NareshJBhatia @OpenAI @AnthropicAI @cursor_ai @v0 @cognition_labs I think I know the answer here but will wait for your reveal🙃

As a web developer, I've been curious to see if AI tools are living up to their hype. I challenged 5 leading AIs to craft a better production-quality app than my hand-crafted implementation. ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, v0, and Devin vs. just me – which do you think did best?

I started a thread on Next.js discussions. An explanation, regardless of a potential solution, would help me make better decisions in building web apps. Please weigh in! github.com/vercel/next.js…

The code that renders the detail (on the right) is a React Client Component and should not refetch the RSC Payload, correct? Reading the React Server Components RFC, it seems to describe the full page load scenario in detail, but not for a partial page fetch.

I'm trying to optimize a list-detail implementation using @nextjs + React Client Components. The client is requesting an RSC Payload on every click, costing an extra 572 ms per click. You can see, it feels sluggish. Can @reactjs experts help me understand why?

@awelfle @KunalsLab @figma Role reversal – I'll see you in person & Kunal will be watching online.

hey designer, engineer, and design engineer friends, if you happen to see me, but with white hair and a goatee at #Config2024, it's because my Dad, @NareshJBhatia will be there for day 1! say hi and talk about front end + ai hardcore geeky topics with him thanks, kunal
