There's a lot of hype around LLMs & generative AI - especially when it comes to "AI Agents".
I don't have a super agent (or an army of agents) that does work for me.
But I got a couple of use-cases that really help me get more done!
LLMs often default to a single tech stack (like React, Tailwind, ShadCN). This tendency could reduce competition and innovation in the long run, potentially leading to a development monoculture.
I've slept for too long on open LLMs like Gemma, Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek etc.
They're AMAZING!
Using them is simple (with LM Studio or Ollama) and they're not far behind the "big models" you can access via ChatGPT etc. At least in my experience.
I'm using them for all kinds of tasks...
React Compiler RC (Release Candidate) was released!
Almost one year after its initial release (back then in experimental status), it's now almost ready for production use.
And it can save you LOTS OF time of writing useMemo(), useCallback() and memo()!
