The AI Guide for Developers
By Flavio Copes
A developer's guide to AI: how I use AI agents and coding tools in my daily work, with links to my posts on agent frameworks and workflows.
AI changed how I work as a developer. Today, right now, most of my code is written with an AI agent sitting next to me.
This page is your map to the AI content on the site. It’s a growing collection: I write about AI agents, the frameworks used to build them, and the practical workflows I use every day.
My advice is to learn AI by using it, not just reading about it. Pick a coding agent, give it a real task, and see where it breaks. That’s how you learn what these tools can and cannot do.
Where to start
Start with the practical side, how AI fits into a real workflow:
- fstack, the simple stack is my collection of simple agent skills, and a good look at how I think about working with agents
- How I log every Git commit to a plain text file shows how I give agents context about my recent work
- How I use the same Git work log with Codex and ChatGPT extends that setup across different AI tools
- How to use Cursor Projects is a practical Cursor workflow for longer-lived agent work
Building AI agents
Once you’ve used agents, you’ll want to understand how they’re built. These posts look at the frameworks powering them:
- Flue: the open framework for building AI agents
- Vercel eve: an open framework for building AI agents
- Executor: one gateway to connect your AI agent to every tool
