I’m a solo dev looking to integrate AI with my development workflow. I’ve been doing everything manually ever since. Only copypasting the answers from AI lol.
Preferably: free
My machine: thinkpad t430 linux mint
I usually use Gemini for brainstorming and creating specs that I then stick into vscode which is running Claude Sonnet 4.5. Works ok with Motoko as long as you have some example files using the libraries and patterns you prefer. Definitely feel the lazy thing watching the AI work but a lot of times you can work on different tasks like work on the UI while the agent works on the backend.
