Learning out loud

Writing about how software gets built now that agents do more of the building.

Hi, I’m Cherie

AI is changing how software gets built, quickly, and nobody has all the answers yet. So I’m writing down what I learn as I go: what’s working, what isn’t, and what I’m still figuring out.
