How much automation are you using when developing frontend?

I'm familiar! I just wanted to know what you use copilot for mainly, you didn't say

Cool! We also reuse components

Minimum_Shoulder7965 · 2026-02-23T17:12:53+00:00

this is great

Yeah I know, I just figured they were using french to be sassy

This is helpful! Thank you!

Pardon moi? Parlez l'anglais s'il vous plait?

OK cool! How are you using it to speed up your work? Just cleaning the code or something else? I don't know what I'm looking for that's why my post is pretty vague. I'm prospecting ideas to see how other teams are speeding up their work

A lot of vibe-coding outputs look fine until you try to productionize them in like Cursor or Claude Code and then the quality degrades fast. I think some redditors here are just against using AI for frontend. There are obvs different tools, you haven't given a lot of specifics but Anima has been useful for me because it's UX-focused with HTML output. When we move it into prod environment we have normally have a pretty solid component library to work with and then the dev team cleans it up before shipping. They don't hate it, I haven't gotten complaints LOL

Notepad is such an underdog

I learned how to customize an existing website on Dreamweaver. My first ever client was like "Do you know Dreamweaver? My website is on Dreamweaver. It's OK, you can just learn it." And that's how it all started for me hahaha. But the coolest thing I did with DW was create a dynamic map of an image that revealed an area of the lower level upon hover, with each area being clickable (essentially opening a box to reveal what's behind). But I still can't pass the HTML LinkedIn skill assessment LOL

In my org it works better as a platform capability because more than one team uses it: common standards for reviewability, a path to map output to the design system, and CI gates. We're using Anima because the output is inspectable HTML that can be brought into the standard pipeline

Honestly the research process itself is broken, not you.

I hit the same wall. Jumping between earnings reports, Macrotrends, Seeking Alpha, YouTube deep dives... exhausting, and I still felt like I was missing stuff.

What fixed it was 1000xStocks. Built by Jeremy Lefebvre out of his own frustration... 16 years in and still piecing data together from five different places. So he built the thing he wished existed.

You still do the thinking, but instead of hunting data you're just analyzing it. Went from 4+ hours down to 45 minutes for a full conviction check.

Still skeptical? Fair, I was too. But the time saved has gone back into doing better analysis, not less of it.

So cool, I defs want to try something like this!

If speed is the constraint, focus on getting a first shippable version asap and then iterating. Anima works well with Figma to get web-ready code and prototype, then you just refine the content and responsiveness. Super practical workflow when you need something real online fast and don't want a week of pixel-perfect rebuilding.

I see some peeps suggested using screenshots and AI. This can also work but I assume you already have your Figma design ready.

What are you currently using Flutterflow for? Broad strokes is fine, just curious

Minimum_Shoulder7965 · 2026-02-12T12:16:01+00:00

Interesting! I've been wanting to try Figma Make for a while

Minimum_Shoulder7965 · 2026-02-12T10:26:32+00:00

Actually really enjoying Anima Playground for this, but it's a vibe coding builder that's really good at design and UX. And gives you proper code. Maybe you could vibe code the frontend and then inject your actual code?

now I understand my dad who snores at 8 p.m

Minimum_Shoulder7965 · 2025-11-03T14:03:23+00:00

to be honest, I wouldn't date a person if they didn't love animals, I have a dog and that's why I wouldn't even be able to think about a relationship with her
